Zuckerberg posted photos to his personal Instagram page playing off of the nickname of the former UFC featherweight champion when he discussed having a 'blessed' kind of weekend to caption the photo dump of training pictures with Holloway.

Several Instagram users noticed this, including a reigning Bellator MMA champion, and many had their say in the comment section.

Max Holloway had a record beaten over the weekend

Max Holloway is one of the most proven, action-intensive fighters in the promotion's history. This makes it especially impressive that a fighter from Saturday night's UFC Tampa card set a new bonus record (going past 'Blessed').

Cub Swanson was that individual in question and Swanson usurped as well as tied records set by the 33-year-old former featherweight champion. When he put out the lights of Billy Quarantillo, Swanson tied Max Holloway for most combined featherweight victories in UFC and WEC history with twenty wins.

'Blessed' is still ahead of Swanson in some regards as Holloway has the most featherweight finishes in UFC and WEC history at eleven while Swanson just secured his ninth finish. This puts Swanson at third of all time in that regard with Jose Aldo being positioned at number two of all time.

The Hawaii native is now behind Swanson in terms of all-time fight night bonuses in the WEC and UFC's combined featherweight divisional history. Cub Swanson has that record now with fifteen bonuses and is also the UFC-specific leader for featherweight fight night bonuses with eleven happening specifically inside of the UFC octagon.

Also interestingly enough, Holloway and Swanson previously fought one another. One of Holloway's finishes that helped establish him as the record holder of WEC/ UFC featherweight stoppages came at the expense of Swanson by way of a guillotine choke. Holloway secured this submission over Swanson in the third round of their UFC on Fox 15 bout which transpired in Apr. 2015.
