Published
Conor McGregor‘s last fight was more than five years ago, but Max Holloway doesn’t believe in ring rust … ’cause he tells TMZ Sports he’s preparing for a “dangerous” Mystic Mac at UFC 329 on Saturday.
Holloway and McGregor first met in the Octagon way back in 2013 — a scrap Conor won via unanimous decision. Not only did Holloway think a rematch would’ve gotten made a lot sooner, he wasn’t expecting it to happen with McGregor coming off a lengthy hiatus.
All that being said, Blessed told us he’s happy to be the guy to welcome Conor back in the cage … but that’s where the pleasantries end — ’cause he “can’t wait to punch the guy in the face.”
Holloway admitted five years off might actually bring out the best version of McGregor … but he’s confident he’ll still have his hand raised this time around “in devastating fashion.”
A McGregor fight also comes with a significant payday … but Holloway said he’s looking for some bonus money, too — meaning fans can expect some serious fireworks come Saturday.
Check out the full clip — Holloway also laid out his plans post-McGregor fight … and had one final message for his opponent.
