Conor McGregor bashed Max Holloway as the fighter claims to be the best boxer in UFC history. McGregor once held the UFC featherweight championship and recently shared his thoughts on Max Holloway’s incredible punching skills. Their history in the octagon goes back to 2013 when they clashed at UFC Fight Night 26.
McGregor was a relatively new face in the UFC then, and fans were beginning to realize his potential. McGregor emerged victorious with a decision after a hard-fought three-round battle, and since then, the rivalry has always been active. Recently, the former UFC double champion came across a video of Holloway and shared it on his Instagram story. He issued a warning alongside the video, saying, “I’m gonna box you around the cage, Max, just for this comment alone.”
The video was from Holloway’s fight against Calvin Kattar in January 2021, in which the fighter in the middle of the fight screamed, “I’m the best boxer in UFC, baby.” In that fight, Holloway displayed exceptional skills that night, setting a new record for significant strikes with a remarkable 445, surpassing his previous record of 290.
After completing TUF together, Conor McGregor‘s potential return to the UFC will be Michael Chandler in December. However, it seems that McGregor is not shying away from considering several opponents, including Max Holloway.
Max Holloway reacts to his hilarious character from UFC 5 game
In a recent event that got a lot of attention on social media, there seemed to be a sneak peek of Max Holloway’s character in the upcoming UFC 5 video game. This sneak peek got a lot of people talking because fans reacted with a mix of laughter and surprise when they saw a side-by-side comparison of the supposed in-game character and a real photo of Holloway.
However, ardent followers of the UFC video game series were quick to clarify that the leaked character model was, in fact, nothing more than a custom character crafted within the UFC game itself. Holloway also noticed the picture and took it to Twitter with disappointment and confusion. However, after clearing the air, the fighter commented that his character was not like this in the upcoming game.
Amid the enjoyment sparked by Holloway’s character model, there’s significant excitement surrounding the upcoming release of UFC 5. The game will launch on October 27, 2023, exclusively for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
EA Sports has recently introduced the cover stars Alexander “The Great” Volkanovski, the current featherweight champion, and Valentina “Bullet” Shevchenko, a former flyweight champion.
