Holloway And VanZant Take USO Tour

Max Holloway’s first tour with the USO nearly needed to go to the Octagon, as he would go “toe to toe” with former “Daily Show” anchor Jon Stewart.

Stewart, looking to have a little fun “confronted” Holloway, going as far as to take off his shirt while fellow UFC fighter Paige VanZant would act as “ring announcer.”

Holloway and VanZant visited United States troops in Japan, the demilitarized zone in Korea and Iraq.
