UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway has revealed who the real winner is regarding the Floyd Mayweather - Conor McGregor fight.

The media just gave Holloway a brief time to exit the octagon following his big win over Jose Aldo at UFC 212 to ask him who should be his next challenger. Is it Frankie Edgar or Cub Swanson?

While he did admit that it will most likely be Edgar, he did reveal that when it comes to which fight that fans want to see, it’s neither fighter. As for the reason behind his theory, it’s because there is another name out there, which is McGregor.

“It’s actually (UFC lightweight champion Conor) McGregor,” Holloway told MMA Junkie. “Everybody keeps saying ‘McGregor, McGregor.’ I’m like, ‘Guys, that guy’s boxing right now. He’s got other things. Respect to that guy, he’s got other things.'”

Obviously, McGregor is not going to be fighting in the famous Octagon anytime soon as his fight with Mayweather is set to take place on August 26th in Las Vegas, Nevada. Many people are speculating McGregor’s future in the sport due to him getting paid nicely for this upcoming boxing match.

McGregor does have some unfinished business as hedid win two UFC titles, featherweight, and lightweight, but he has yet to defend either of those titles just once. He was stripped of the featherweight title, but he is still the lightweight champion.

Holloway is tired of talking about the Irishman at this point as it has been four years since they last fought each other. While he would like to get his big win over McGregor, he would also like to avenge all three of his career losses.

“But, at the end of the day, we’re not here to talk about that guy,” Holloway said. “That guy’s not even in my sport right now. That guy’s over there focusing on boxing. This is called mixed martial arts. They know who to call. they’ve got Dana White’s number. They’ve got my manager’s number.

“I’m the best 145-er in the world, and if they’ve got a question of me going up to 155, I’ll do it no problem. I love eating. I’m Polynesian. You can see – my chubby cheeks is giving it away a little bit.”

While it appeared that he is done talking about McGregor, he was asked right away who does he think will be the winner of the upcoming boxing match. Holloway gave an interesting answer by saying that it’s UFC President Dana White and the UFC.

“The big winner of that fight is Dana White,” Holloway said. “And the UFC, dog. They’re the big winners.”
