UFC 236 Countdown: Max Holloway vs. Dustin Poirier (VIDEO)

On Saturday, April 13, the Ultimate Fighting Championship returns to pay-per-view with UFC 236 in Atlanta, Georgia. The event features two interim title fights, with UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway‘s quest to become a two-division champion serving as the main event.

Holloway is set to take on Dustin Poirier for the interim lightweight championship. The two men previously faced off in February 2012 at UFC 143.

In their first bout, Poirier spoiled Holloway’s UFC debut with a first-round submission that was the first loss of Holloway’s professional career. Now, Holloway is looking for redemption.

Ahead of their rematch, UFC camera crews followed the two fighters around to document their fight camps and final preparations for the upcoming pay-per-view as part of the UFC Countdown series.
