“So you kept reaching out to an engaged woman for five years and she left her partner for you after finding out you make a lot of money…”
Six years ago, the surf world was torn asunder when the one-time people’s champ Caio Ibelli was dumped by his then fiancee, the Hawaiian Alessa Quizon, and replaced with UFC god Max Holloway, also Hawaiian.
Caio Ibelli was last seen on these pages three years ago when he risked unnatural looking results after undergoing gruesome hair transplant surgery in Brazil.
Caio Ibelli had been fighting baldness for at least five or so years, and finally zigged where others, Slater, Julian Wilson, zagged.
Anyway, Max Holloway and Alessa have become the MMA power couple, with Max’s star refusing to dim and Alessa’s sassy surf roots bringing a much needed glam to the sport.
Max, too, ain’t afraid to shred.
Holloway, who is thirty-four, grew up on Oahu’s west side, also famous for the production of Sunny Garcia and Johnny Boy Gomes.
Max has stunned fight fans with his surf bona fides after conquering the famous Waco pool and commanding, Zeus-like, the Shizunami Surf Stadium a couple of hours out of Tokyo.
Anyway, on a recent podcast, Alessa explained that Max was lighting up her DMs when she was engaged to Caio and that she left him on unread for five years. It was his persistence, his consistency, she says, that won her heart.
That, and oowee, he famous, beautiful and rich.
After Max wrote, “I lived by a code though if you have a bf and he can’t defend your honor you have a girlfriend hahaha” the trolls dived in hard, lashing Max for hitting on an almost married girl, a quaint kickback to a time of duels, chivalry etc.
Here’s the context:

1. She was engaged while leaving me on read for 5 years. lol
So if anything I’m an ass that kept reaching out. I lived by a code though if you have a bf and he can’t defend your honor you have a girlfriend hahaha
2. She was a professional surfer and… https://t.co/itiurbc57J
Be careful with that “code” of yours brother because Ngannou or even a healthy Conor can use that to steal yo wife just as you did. You ain’t defending against either of them
Ooff. That code is disgusting given you’re a world class fighter. You actually come across worse here than in the cuck version.
so you kept reaching out to an engaged woman for 5 years and she eventually left her partner for you after finding out you make a lot of money and you think that this is a woman worth marrying? you think this makes you look good?
You sound stupid talking about honor when you kept going after another man’s girl for 5 years. She only gave in when she noticed you’re a celebrity lol you’re both weird.
texting an engaged woman’s kinda wack tho. look how people used dustin’s wife texting conor to humiliate him. also you know what they say to lose them how you get them.
This explanation should somehow make the story better? She was engaged for several years and when she googled you she left the guy? I mean. It’s your life but I’m surprised you even want to talk about this in internet and none of you see that this is not romantic story to share
And so on.
I think Max Holloway comes out of this beautifully, a man who fell in love and chased the woman of his dreams across different epochs, never giving in, eventually marrying her.
Caio can go to hell, in my opinion.
Thoughts?
