Can Conor McGregor 🇮🇪 overcome a five-year layoff to beat Max Holloway again?

bellhop19542mo ago

Dodged a bullet Conor McGregor next time you get your ass whipped……. 😵

33plusman2mo ago

He had no chance against Aldo, but turns out he did. He had no chance against Alverez, but turns out he did. I don't have a farm to bet, but if I did I'd bet it on McGregor. Reason? Because no one seems to be giving Mac a chance against Max. Put it this way, I won't be disappointed either way it goes.

baronk92mo ago

The fight should've been at 155 lbs which is why McJuiced wanted this match up

georgesnodgrass422mo ago

I know no one wants to hear this but there are too many unknowns with both fighters to make a reasonable prediction on the outcome of this fight.

jordan.ellis2mo ago

This you? lol

philipsnyder11072mo ago

Never say never ! I want Conor to win and Max is gonna bring it to him for sure, anything can happen but only 1 is gonna leave that cage a winner!!! Let the best man win !! Gonna be a helluva fight!!!!!!!!

harvey.leonard2mo ago

As long as we see something memorable, I'll be happy

richiellamas2mo ago

He lost his last two fights and to Dustin. Dustin lost his last fight to Max. He's not prime McGregor. He's going to give it hell but Max by Unanimous decision. He should have taken a tuneup

harvey.leonard2mo ago

I agree. But MMA math like that often gets proven wrong

nelsontor202mo ago

Hell nah Conor dont stand a chance to beat Max Holloway. He's a washed up bum now who needs to retire

cirizarry11472mo ago

I think if Conor gets into his mindset that he's not losing and can channel Mystic Mac he can pull it off in the first 2 rounds after that it's Max's time

richiellamas2mo ago

I don't think Max will be in his range while Connor is fresh

onpointtile2mo ago

Ibogaine is a very powerful tool that quite literally makes you a different person, physically, mentally and spiritually so if Conor can channel his energy into something special and new again I see him taking this easily. If not then he can put this chapter to rest and move forward with something else. Mystic Mac turns everything to gold.

jordan.ellis2mo ago

I think Conor's gotta do something big early or get stopped between 3-5. Holloway by sub would be a great way for him to bounce back from that Oliveira L.

alfredkowsky132mo ago

I really enjoyed the video but think we'll see a different outcome Saturday night. Mcgregor has been known for "gassing-out" in the later rounds, & I think this will happen again in the rematch.. I see Holloway winning by submission.

bigmotoxer2mo ago

Break a leg Connor. ...meh

jordan.ellis2mo ago

machiavelli962mo ago

Man, this better be one hell of a fight from both fighters. Looking forward to Conor beating the brakes off Holloway at the end though, so STFU and bring out the red panties 😜

richiellamas3mo ago

Casuals voting for Connor. Like my mother in-law who thought Tyson was still the champ in 2020

jordan.ellis2mo ago

You don't give him a punchers chance at 170lbs?

martinmarshall3863mo ago

I think max take it he a different fighter now from the first time there was in the octagon. Those still a chance Connor could dominate in the early rounds we've explosive action but if it goes to Deep Waters max will take it he's blessed. Butthole knows with this fight game the only takes one slip in either Direction.

threadgill67693mo ago

This will be a good chance for Conner to shine,but 2 many yrs away from actual cage fighting will show it self . You can train,,workout,cardio, but none of it duplicates what it's like to actually fight with all you have in every minute, ,second,of each round..2 rounds will be max.for Conner. Then ,it's the Max Hollaway show. Sorry Conner ,I'm a huge fan

devmike3mo ago

Conor might catch him with some of those fancy spinning kicks and tumbles.

jordan.ellis3mo ago

Conor is smart taking this fight to 170. I think the weight gives him a chance, but really Max should easily beat him due to the inactivity.

jamie.theodosi3mo ago

The closer the fight gets, the more I’m leaning towards McGregor for some bizarre reason.

joekisworking3mo ago

Because he is direction that the UFC is going

sknight363mo ago

Only reason for a conor win is the massive potential fight with Paddy ! Would be a massive PPV especially in UK and Ireland! But both got tough opposition id make Max favourite and BSD v Paddy a pick em

brocklaurent893mo ago

Conor wouldn't beat Max even if he didn't have the layoff, he has only won 1 fight since like 2017

kyle.dimond3mo ago

You just never know with McGregor but my head cannot look past the layoff he’s had while Max has been facing the best of the best.

edmond80843mo ago

Anything is possible in a fight but no. Conor has been out of the fight game too long and Dustin handled him easily his last two fights. Max has been active and has evolved since their first matchup. Max in a 5 round decision though he possesses the ability to stop Conor.

slow.draggin3mo ago

Sure. I might have not have thought that before he got straight humiliated in his last fight. Dude is def blessed, getting this as a reward for that shameful performance...

dr.cheyno3mo ago

At least he didn't tap instantly the moment an arm went near his neck

markmarston3mo ago

Ofc he can… think the odds are against him but I think the narrative that there’s no chance is ridiculous. The man hasn’t forgetten how to fight in the last five years. He’s more the capable of landing that left in the first two rounds. Probs had to be done early. I fancy him to upset the odds

dr.cheyno3mo ago

That's it. Not many people gave my man Gaethje a chance. Though Conor will have to get it done in 2 rounds before he gasses. If Max utilises his movement well though, he has to be the favourite.
