Former UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway is getting hitched.
Holloway, 28, on Tuesday announced his engagement to professional surfer Alessa Quizon with a series of photos posted to Twitter.
“She said yes,” he wrote with a heart emoji.
Quizon, a native of Oahu, Hawaii, is ranked No. 83 by the World Surf League and has 505,000 followers on her official Instagram page. She reportedly began dating Holloway in February after breaking off her engagement to pro surfer Caio Ibelli.
Quizon joins Holloway and Rush, his son from a previous relationship. Rush is a constant fixture at Holloway’s fights, participating in fight week activities and walking to the octagon with his dad.
Holloway’s career is currently on pause after a bid to retake the featherweight title held by Alexander Volkanovski, who first defeated him at UFC 245 to capture the belt and then followed up with a close decision win at UFC 251.
UFC President Dana White floated the idea of a trilogy between Holloway and Volkanovski, but the champ balked at the idea and hinted at a showdown with Brian Ortega, who recently defeated Chan Sung Jung.
