Max Holloway has addressed the growing speculation about being linked to a rematch with Conor McGregor at UFC 329 on July 11 in Las Vegas, admitting that he has been appealed by the fight for personal reasons, while confirming that he has yet to receive a formal offer from the UFC.

McGregor plans to return to action for the first time in five years after suffering a broken foot in his trilogy against Dustin Poirier in 2021, with UFC 329 emerging as the most likely destination during International Fight Week. Holloway, who lost to McGregor in 2013, has been widely discussed as a potential opponent for that comeback, and he explained in an interview with Paramount that the idea of ​​settling unfinished business is attractive.

“I mean, we have the history,” Holloway said. “We fought a long time ago. I told you guys, if someone attacked me, I’d bring him back. I’d love to bring him back. There’s so much talk about him coming back, and everybody’s talking about how serious he really is. It seems like he’s been training and taking and really wants to come back to fight. It’s exciting.

He said, “He looks hungry. He looks extremely hungry. He did a boxing exhibition not too long ago, so it was great to see him. I would just like to get one back. It’s a huge fight.” “Anything with Conor McGregor is huge, but having history with that guy, it would be nice to be able to get someone back. I’ve got to get my payback on one of the guys. If I can continue to move down the list, that would be great.”

Max Holloway vs. Conor McGregor contract has not been proposed yet

Holloway’s most recent outing included a lopsided decision loss to Charles Oliveira that cost him the BMF title, and he was honest about his motivation to erase that performance from the conversation as quickly as possible.

He said, “You’re only as good as your last fight, and we’re going to make everyone forget about that last fight as quickly as we can.”

Despite mutual interest, Holloway confirmed that no contract has yet been offered.

“Maybe, we’ll see what happens,” he said when asked about UFC 329.

British boxer Connor Benn has signed a new multi-fight deal with Zuffa Boxing, expanding his partnership with the group led by Dana White and Turki Alalshikh. The announcement on Friday came just days after Benn defeated Regis Prograis by unanimous decision at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on April 12.

The 10-round catchweight bout marked Benn’s first appearance under Zuffa since leaving Matchroom Boxing earlier this year. The new deal confirms his long-term commitment to the promotion after a short-term deal which reportedly paid him £11.19 million for the Progress fight.

Strong start builds long-term Zuffa commitment

Ben’s performance against Progress was instrumental in securing a new deal. He controlled the fight in all 10 rounds and won by clear decision on the scorecards. The result improved his professional record and brought Zuffa Boxing early success in the sport.

The April 12 event attracted attention as one of Zuffa’s first major boxing shows. Benn’s victory showed that he could operate in a high-profile setting outside the traditional campaign structure. It also supported Zuffa’s aim of holding competitive matchups with recognized names.

After the fight, Ben confirmed his new deal. “Yeah guys, I just signed a new multi-fight deal that I’m very, very excited about. Our visions are the same; our goal is the same: to win world titles, but, more importantly, to give the people the fights they want. Mega fights. If you guys want it, you guys can get it,” he said.

Dana White also confirmed the agreement. White said, “Conor and I signed a new deal after his one-fight deal. We’re excited to have him. We’re ready for some big fights.” His statement reinforced Zuffa’s focus on staging major bouts as part of its long-term planning.

Deal sets new direction by separating from Matchroom

Benn’s decision to remain with Zuffa follows his departure from Matchroom Boxing, which is led by Eddie Hearn. The move ended a long-standing relationship and moved Ben away from the traditional UK boxing structure.

His first deal with Zuffa was a single-fight deal. The new agreement expands that arrangement into a multi-conflict commitment. Reports indicate that the deal may involve several fights over several years, although the exact terms have not been publicly confirmed.

The deal places Ben among the premier fighters on Zuffa’s growing roster. The promotion aims to establish itself as a dominant force in boxing by holding events on larger platforms and focusing on high-profile matchups.

Ben turned professional in 2016 and is undefeated by no contest against Chris Eubank Jr. His recent win and new deal mark an important step in his career as he continues to pursue a world title.

Zuffa Boxing is still in its early stages, but the company has moved quickly to sign notable fighters. Ben’s decision to proceed with his deal confirms his role in that scheme. The announcement Friday adds another development to the ongoing changes in boxing promotions as new organizations look to compete with established names.

Dustin Poirier had high praise for Josh Hockitt after his performance at UFC 327 in Miami on Saturday.

Hockit spent fight week taunting top-ranked heavyweight Curtis Blaydes and even went after headliners Carlos Ulberg and Jiri Prochazka, drawing mixed reactions from UFC fans.

However, when it came time to perform, Hockit bested Blaydes in an all-out battle on the main card at the Kasia Center and took home the $200,000 prize money along with two performance bonuses.

Lightweight legend addresses performance about the last battleDrawing a direct line between Hokit’s willingness to back up his words and the rise of some of the game’s biggest stars.

“When the stars start to align, you’ve seen it in Conor McGregor, you talk the talk, and you walk the walk,” Poirier said. “You’ve seen it in ‘Suga’ Sean O’Malley. You’ve seen it in Chael Sonnen. We’ve seen it time and time again where guys talk the talk and walk away, and Hokit has done that this week.

“He talked about a big game, and he went out there and had one of the best heavyweight bouts we’ve ever seen and raised his hand. Good things happen, you become a star.”

Hockit, now 9-0 in MMA and 3-0 in the UFC, was immediately rewarded with a high-profile next assignment. He is booked to face Derrick Lewis at UFC Freedom 250 on June 14 at the White House, a booking that shows how seriously the promotion is taking his early momentum inside the Octagon.

Matt Brown isn’t convinced by Nate Diaz’s public explanation for declining a UFC return in favor of fighting Mike Perry on the May 16 Netflix card headlined by Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano. Speaking on The Fighter vs. The Writer, Brown argued that the Netflix deal certainly paid more than what the UFC was offering and that Diaz’s decision does not hold up to scrutiny as a matter of principle.

The situation began when UFC CEO Dana White revealed that the promotion was in talks to bring Diaz back, but he believed that Most Valuable Promotions had made him an offer he could not refuse. Diaz publicly hit back, claiming that the UFC had actually offered him more money for a trilogy fight against Conor McGregor and that he turned it down because he had no interest in facing McGregor on his “last leg” after being out of action for five years. Brown knows Diaz well enough to know that he respects the framing but does not accept it at face value.

“Money talks,” Brown said. “He’s making more money with this Netflix fight than he is with the UFC. That’s why he’s not fighting Conor in the UFC. I lean toward believing Dana on this. He got an offer he couldn’t refuse. Now, with the way the contract is structured, with how Nate is spinning it, there might be something going on a few layers down behind the scenes that we don’t know about yet. But there’s no way he’s making more money. Not earning.

“I don’t believe for a moment that he’s not making more money with this Netflix deal, although whatever happens, he ends up with more money in his bank account from this fight than the UFC, or he doesn’t take the fight. He’s going to pick the highest bidder. I don’t think that’s unique to Nate Diaz, but I think he understands that this is a prize fight. He’s fighting for the money. He’s going to take the highest pay. Is.”

Nate Diaz’s MVP deal

Brown’s broader theory is that Diaz’s deal with MVP could be tied to fewer terms than UFC returns, and the contract structure could be as important a factor as the upfront money.

“There’s either something more to it, like potentially he didn’t want to sign another contract with the UFC or something along those lines,” Brown said. “When they say there was an offer he couldn’t refuse, maybe it wasn’t just the money. Maybe there was something else going on behind the scenes with him. When he says they offered him more money, up front, they offered him more money – is there something going on through the back door?

“It doesn’t make sense to me that he would simply accept a lower salary for what would probably be an uphill battle for him. There’s something where the math is not adding up. There are some things going on behind the scenes, behind closed doors, that we don’t know about.”

达斯汀·波里尔 (Dustin Poirier) 最近反思了他认为 MMA 职业生涯中决定性胜利的事情。

这位现已退役的轻量级选手在乔·罗根的 MMA 节目中发表讲话，回顾了 2021 年 1 月在 UFC 257 比赛中击倒康纳·麦格雷戈的经历，并解释了为什么那场比赛是他 19 年职业生涯中最重要的一场比赛，是改变他一切的那场比赛。

“我打了 19 年，那场康纳之战，从那时起，我的认知度发生了变化，”普瓦里尔说道。 “研讨会、出场的大门打开了。这改变了一切。我参加了很多 UFC 主要赛事。我为腰带而战，做了所有这些事情，但那个人的名字，伙计。”

普瓦里尔和麦格雷戈首次交锋是在2014年，当时麦格雷戈在98秒内将普瓦里尔击倒。七年后，普瓦里尔在阿布扎比逆转了这一结果，在第二轮击败了麦格雷戈。这是 UFC 历史上的一个重要时刻，但普瓦里尔的评论清楚地表明了这对他个人和职业的意义。

考虑到普瓦里尔在那晚之前就已经建立的简历，这些言论令人震惊。他曾成为按次付费赛事的头条新闻，参加过冠军争夺战，并在轻量级赛事中保持了十年的领先地位。无论以何种标准衡量，他都已经是这项运动中的知名人物了。

但普瓦里尔很清楚，这一切都没有转化为击败麦格雷戈带来的那种知名度和机会。麦格雷戈所承载的名声价值，即使远离了他的巅峰时期，也打开了多年来精英级别比赛所没有的大门。

达斯汀·普瓦里尔 (Dustin Poirier) 谈他从 UFC 退役的原因

2025 年 7 月，普瓦里尔在 UFC 318 比赛中输给马克斯·霍洛威 (Max Holloway)，并在 BMF 冠军三部曲之战中被淘汰，最终从 MMA 退役。他在比赛前宣布退役。在《罗根秀》中，他解释了 36 岁离开的原因。

“我害怕战斗太久，”普瓦里尔说。 “我 36 岁退役。我的运动能力还能增强多少？我能跑多快？力量是最后消失的东西，但耐久性、速度、反应时间以及我需要的一切都会随着年龄的增长而下降。

“如果我不适合争夺冠军，我在做什么？我只是为了战斗而战斗，或者为了薪水。我必须照镜子，就像，’好吧，就是这样。我会保持健康。’我大部分时间都带着我的能力离开了。”

Dustin Poirier recently reflected on what he considers the defining victory of his MMA career.

Speaking on Joe Rogan’s MMA Show, the now-retired lightweight recalled his knockout of Conor McGregor at UFC 257 in January 2021 and explained why that was the fight, above all others, that changed everything for him in his 19-year career.

“I fought for 19 years, that Conor fight, that’s when things changed for me identity-wise,” Poirier said. “The door opened for seminars, for appearances. It changed everything. I went to a lot of UFC main events. I fought for the belt and all that stuff, but that guy’s name, man.”

Poirier and McGregor first met in 2014, when McGregor defeated Poirier in 98 seconds. Seven years later, Poirier reversed that result in Abu Dhabi, eliminating McGregor in the second round. It was a significant moment in UFC history, but Poirier’s comments make it clear how much it meant to him personally and professionally.

The comments are surprising, considering Poirier had already built his resume that night. He headlined pay-per-view events, competed in title matches, and spent a decade at the top of the lightweight division. By any measure, he was already an established name in the game.

But Poirier is clear that none of this translated to the visibility and opportunity that came from defeating McGregor. The importance of McGregor’s name, even years short of his best, opened doors that years of elite-level competition had not.

Dustin Poirier explains why he retired from UFC

Poirier ultimately retired from MMA in July 2025 after a loss to Max Holloway at UFC 318, where he was defeated in their BMF title trilogy fight. He had announced his retirement even before the match. On the Rogan show, he explained his reason for leaving the position at the age of 36.

“I was scared of fighting for a very long time,” Poirier said. “I retired at 36. How much more athletic will I become? How fast will I go? Strength is the last thing, but durability, speed, reaction time and everything else I need decreases with age.

“And if I’m not in the right line for a title shot, what am I doing? I’m just fighting to fight, or for the pay. I had to look at myself in the mirror, like, ‘Okay, this is it. I’ll be healthy.’ For the most part, I went with my abilities.”

The fallout from UFC 326 has rekindled one of the top rivalries in combat sports, with Conor McGregor already paving the way for a third fight against Nate Diaz. Despite being left off the “UFC Freedom 250” White House card, “The Notorious” remained the center of conversation this weekend, specifically targeting the BMF belt held by Charles Oliveira.

McGregor was vocal in his criticism of Oliveira’s wrestling-heavy victory over Max Holloway. He believes the BMF title should return to its roots in the welterweight division.

“The BMF title was founded by Nate Diaz at 170 pounds. The creator of the belt,” McGregor said during a recent appearance on Smash Cast. “So, there’s a fight for the belt at 170 pounds, and I’m ready for it. I’ll go and take it, and I’ll bring it back, and Nate and I can complete the trilogy for the belt.” McGregor argued that losing weight to 155 pounds for a title that celebrates toughness was unnecessary.

Charles Oliveira, who earned a 50–45 clean sweep on the scorecards against Holloway to become the fourth BMF champion, was sharply criticized by both McGregor and Diaz. During the post-fight press conference at UFC 326, he dismissed McGregor’s social media posts calling the main event “shockingly bad”.

Conor McGregor Record: 22-6 (19 knockouts, 1 submission)

Oliveira made it clear that although his primary goal is to reclaim the undisputed Lightweight Championship, he is willing to accept a “money fight” against the Irishman at any weight.

“You want to put him at 170, you want to put him there, I don’t care, you want to put him at middleweight, we do it, it doesn’t matter,” Oliveira said. “I’ll tell you what – if you want it, make it a Grand Prix. Two fights, same day, and let’s see what happens.” Oliveira’s dismissive tone underlined his current position of power in the division, although he acknowledged that a fight with McGregor would be motivated solely by financial gain.

While McGregor’s ambitious plans for the BMF title and the Diaz Trilogy have his fans excited, the reality of his return remains complicated. UFC CEO Dana White said over the weekend that a deal is “not even close” to McGregor’s return despite the fighter’s claims. However, McGregor revealed on Smash Cast that his manager, Audie Attar, was in Las Vegas on Monday for a one-on-one meeting with UFC officials.

“I’m extremely good at tackling, I’m an honest guy,” McGregor said. “I hope a respectable offer comes.”

While Conor McGregor claims he is ready to return to the Octagon, and against anyone, he is becoming publicly frustrated by the lack of updates from the UFC.

It makes sense that Dana White and the UFC would move on from the idea of ​​McGregor fighting again. After two losses to Dustin Poirier and a serious foot injury in 2021, the Irish superstar remains on the sidelines.

He was going to face Michael Chandler in 2023 and again in 2024. However, “Notorious” stopped short of returning to the drug testing program, then withdrew from the planned bout due to a toe injury suffered two years ago. This gave many people in and around the company the impression that McGregor had retired and they did not want to accept it.

However, when the UFC revealed plans for a fight card on the White House lawn last year, McGregor immediately made it known he wanted to be involved. Still, many questioned how serious he was about returning to the cage after five years and at the age of 37.

Conor McGregor still waiting for UFC comeback opponent

Well, the future UFC Hall of Famer seems to be honest about his desire to return sometime this year, and has posted videos of him training for his return fight. Furthermore, he has claimed that he is as outspoken as he has been in years. last week,

White claimed that he and his team had planned the entire card for the White House event in June. This would suggest that he has contacted McGregor about a fight on the card. Well, it seems they haven’t, and the Irish are becoming frustrated with the lack of communication.

“Day 15 of ‘I accept, send contract’,” McGregor wrote in a post on X on Monday morning.

An important part of McGregor’s contract is to receive pay-per-view points for his bouts. However, the company is not currently doing PPVs after reaching a $7.7 billion deal to air all of their programs on Paramount+, so that part of their deal cannot be fulfilled.

It’s possible that the UFC knows he may not be on the White House card and are still not sure how they can get him back into the Octagon while still meeting his financial demands. That means the saga of whether he will fight again or not will not end soon.

在最新的高调收购中，祖法拳击公司透露了与英国超级巨星康纳·本 (Conor Benn) 的交易（24 胜 1 负，14 次击倒）。周五，促销活动通过社交媒体宣布了这一巨额签约。

“毁灭者”在 11 月与去年 4 月的比赛的重赛中以一边倒的一致判定战胜了小克里斯·尤班克 (Chris Eubank Jr.)。我们可能不会很快看到三部曲的战斗，因为本恩在胜利后放弃了对第三次比赛的兴趣。

那么，这位英国伦敦人在祖法拳击旗下的第一场比赛中将面对谁，因为他对不同体重的比赛持开放态度？我们提供七种选择，其中包括拳击偶像曼尼·帕奎奥。

卡勒姆·沃尔什

25 岁的卡勒姆·沃尔什 (Callum Walsh) 正在迅速崛起，成为这项运动中最有前途的球员之一。经过 16 场比赛，这位来自爱尔兰科克的人尚未尝到失败的滋味。一月，沃尔什在第六轮中击倒对手，一致判定击败卡洛斯·奥坎波。这是他四年职业生涯中唯一一次登上画布。

曼尼·帕奎奥

“Pacman”仍然致力于夺得冠军头衔，但尚未准备好挂起手套。去年7月，曼尼·帕奎奥在与WBC次中量级冠军马里奥·巴里奥斯的平局中未能实现这一里程碑。这位 2025 年国际拳击名人堂入选者将于 4 月回归，参加与鲁斯兰·普罗沃德尼科夫的表演赛。 47岁的他如果再次参加比赛也就不足为奇了，而且这可能会发生在达纳·怀特和祖法拳击公司身上。

卡洛斯·奥坎波

一月份，“Chema”以一致判定输给了沃尔什。然而，这位14岁的老将在上一次出场之前已经连续三场比赛通过暂停获胜。卡洛斯·奥坎波展示了他的一些力量，他的左勾拳让沃尔什的手套接触到了画布，将其击倒。奥坎波自 2023 年 6 月淘汰赛输给蒂姆·茨尤 (Tim Tszyu) 以来首次遭遇失利。他是晋级赛中面对康纳·本 (Conor Benn) 的另一个强有力的选择。

米萨尔·罗德里格斯

“El Chino”在一月份第四回合 TKO 战胜了 Austin Deanda，令人印象深刻。米萨尔·罗德里格斯 (Misael Rodriguez) 凭借组合击败了迪安达 (Deanda)，以 91-53 击败了他。这场胜利是2016年里约热内卢铜牌得主在16场职业比赛中第八次获胜。接下来与本进行一场激烈的战斗是很有可能的。

沙库尔·史蒂文森

沙库尔·史蒂文森 (Shakur Stevenson) 在 1 月份与特奥菲莫·洛佩兹 (Teofimo Lopez) 的比赛中体重增加到 140 磅。史蒂文森的技术达到了不同的水平，他击败了洛佩兹，以不平衡的一致判定获胜。他在这场比赛中夺得了WBO和Ring青少年次中量级冠军，成为四个级别的冠军。

获胜后不久，史蒂文森喊出了坐在场边的本。随后发生了激烈的争吵，双方都要求摊牌。最大的问题是史蒂文森需要退出他的比赛室协议才能发生战斗。

谢尔希·博哈楚克

2月1日，谢尔希·博哈丘克以分歧判定击败了前WBA（常规）次中量级拳王拉扎布·布塔耶夫。在一场竞争激烈的艰苦战斗中，博哈丘克的表现证明了比赛的不同。他总共出拳 317 拳，而布塔耶夫的出拳总数为 225 拳。在 Bohachuk 的 27 场胜利中，只有 3 场获胜。对于本在祖法的首场比赛来说，他可能是一个有趣的选择。

瑞安·加西亚

周六晚上，“瑞恩国王”将与马里奥·巴里奥斯争夺 147 磅级 WBC 冠军头衔。瑞安·加西亚 (Ryan Garcia) 已成为这场比赛的热门人选，他正在寻求自 2023 年 12 月淘汰奥斯卡·杜阿尔特 (Oscar Duarte) 以来的首场胜利。本表示有兴趣与加西亚 (Garcia) 与巴里奥斯 (Barrios) 的获胜者进行交锋。如果祖法能够得到他，那将是这个发展中品牌的又一个巨大胜利。

「毀滅者」在 11 月與去年 4 月的比賽的重賽中以一邊倒的一致判定戰勝了小克里斯·尤班克 (Chris Eubank Jr.)。我們可能不會很快看到三部曲的戰鬥，因為本恩在勝利後放棄了對第三場比賽的興趣。

那麼，這位英國倫敦人在祖法拳擊旗下的第一場比賽中將面對誰，因為他對不同體重的比賽持開放態度？我們提供七種選擇，其中包括拳擊偶像曼尼·帕奎奧。

卡勒姆·沃爾什

卡洛斯·奧坎波

一月份，「Chema」以一致判定輸給了沃爾什。然而，這位14歲的老將在上一次出場之前已經連續三場比賽通過暫停獲勝。卡洛斯·奧坎波展示了他的一些力量，他的左勾拳讓沃爾什的手套接觸到了畫布，將其擊倒。奧坎波自 2023 年 6 月淘汰賽輸給蒂姆·茨尤 (Tim Tszyu) 以來首次遭遇失利。他是晉級賽中面對康納本 (Conor Benn) 的另一個強有力的選擇。

米薩爾·羅德里格斯

「El Chino」在一月份第四回合 TKO 擊敗了 Austin Deanda，令人印象深刻。米薩爾·羅德里格斯 (Misael Rodriguez) 憑藉組合擊敗了迪安達 (Deanda)，以 91-53 擊敗了他。這場勝利是2016年裡約熱內盧銅牌得主在16場職業比賽中第八次獲勝。接下來與本進行一場激烈的戰鬥是很有可能的。

沙庫爾·史蒂文森

沙庫爾史蒂文森 (Shakur Stevenson) 在 1 月與特奧菲莫洛佩茲 (Teofimo Lopez) 的比賽中體重增加到 140 磅。史蒂文森的技術達到了不同的水平，他擊敗了洛佩茲，以不平衡的一致判定獲勝。他在這場比賽中贏得了WBO和Ring青少年次中量級冠軍，成為四個級別的冠軍。

謝爾希·博哈楚克

2月1日，謝爾希·博哈丘克以分歧判定擊敗了前WBA（常規）次中量級拳王拉扎布·布塔耶夫。在一場競爭激烈且艱苦的戰鬥中，博哈丘克的表現證明了差異。他總共出拳 317 拳，而布塔耶夫的出拳總數為 225 拳。在 Bohachuk 的 27 場勝利中，只有 3 場獲勝。對於本在祖法的首場比賽來說，他可能是個有趣的選擇。

瑞安·加西亞

週六晚上，“瑞恩國王”將與馬裡奧·巴里奧斯爭奪 147 磅級 WBC 冠軍頭銜。瑞安·加西亞 (Ryan Garcia) 已成為這場比賽的熱門人選，他正在尋求自 2023 年 12 月淘汰奧斯卡·杜阿爾特 (Oscar Duarte) 以來的首場勝利。本表示有興趣與加西亞 (Garcia) 與巴里奧斯 (Barrios) 的獲勝者進行交鋒。如果祖法能夠得到他，那將是這個發展中品牌的另一個巨大勝利。

隨著麥格雷戈準備重返 UFC 白宮，魯菲最想和這位愛爾蘭人一決勝負。

與此同時，平布利特剛剛在 UFC 324 比賽中輸給賈斯汀·蓋特耶，他將成為巴西人的有力對手。

毛里西奧·魯菲 (Mauricio Ruffy) 與拉斐爾·菲齊耶夫 (Rafael Fiziev) 之間發生了什麼？

菲齊耶夫從一開始就加快了步伐，而魯菲採取了麥格雷戈式的左撇子姿勢，強行用後腳。

比賽開始幾分鐘後，魯菲的前腿就出現了受傷的跡象，菲齊耶夫不斷地踢出令人討厭的踢球。

亞歷山大·沃爾卡諾夫斯基在其職業生涯中曾面對過世界上最偉大的拳手，但康納·麥格雷戈則錦上添花。

沃爾卡諾夫斯基在 UFC 十年的輝煌生涯中征服了羽量級賽場，並差點在 2023 年獲得兩個級別的資格。

本週末，“偉大”將在 UFC 325 的複賽中迎戰迭戈·洛佩斯，再次證明自己作為世界最佳 145 磅拳擊手的價值。

這位37歲的選手在UFC 325之前淡化了退役言論，如果他在悉尼擊敗洛佩斯，他將有很多選擇可以探索，尤其是在UFC白宮臨近之際。

麥格雷戈計劃在白宮卡上結束他在這項運動中五年的停賽，而沃爾卡諾夫斯基似乎最喜歡與他所在部門的前偉人較量。

在第一次擊敗洛佩斯後，沃爾卡諾夫斯基後來被問及他最想在現代與哪位拳手分享八角籠，他心裡只有一個名字。

亞歷山大·沃爾卡諾夫斯基很高興與“超級巨星”康納·麥格雷戈會面

“可能是康納，”沃爾卡諾夫斯基告訴《即興秀》。

“很多人會坐在那裡說，‘哦，是的，康納是一個無聊的答案，’但他屬於羽量級。

“那個時代，他只是一個絕對的超級巨星——你可以把自己置於與那個人戰鬥的位置。

“當你談論建立你的平台時，當我們談論金錢和所有這些時。

去年，有傳言稱康納·麥格雷戈和洛根·保羅已就拳擊比賽達成協議。本週，UFC 首席執行官達納·懷特 (Dana White) 解釋了為何他否決了由簽約拳手參加這場比賽的想法。

拳迷們最後一次看到麥格雷戈參加比賽已經是近五年前的事了。自從連續第二次輸給對手達斯汀·普瓦里爾而摔斷腿以來，關於他重返賽場的各種謠言和報導層出不窮。最引人注目的是 2023 年和 2024 年計劃與邁克爾·錢德勒進行的兩場不同的比賽。

去年出現了一個更奇怪的消息，聲稱麥格雷戈和保羅陣營的成員已經同意拳擊比賽的條款。這位現任 WWE 明星過去曾參加過怪誕秀比賽，包括 2021 年對陣弗洛伊德·梅威瑟 (Floyd Mayweather)。九年前，這位愛爾蘭人還曾在一場甜蜜的科學大戰中與梅威瑟對決。因此，雖然這看起來很奇怪，但並不一定是荒謬的。

然而，2017 年與拳擊偶像的那次爭吵得到了他長期擔任 UFC 老闆的批准和共同推動。儘管麥格雷戈自 2021 年起就已成為 MMA，但由於他仍與 MMA 晉級合同簽訂，因此如果麥格雷戈想在晉級之外參加比賽，他將再次需要得到懷特的批准。

達納懷特表示體重差異是他阻止麥格雷戈與保羅比賽的原因

嗯，UFC 首席執行官對這個想法不感興趣，並在最近出現在保羅的流行播客 Impaulsive 中解釋了原因。 “是的，你太巨大了。康納體重 145 磅、155 磅，”當保羅問他為什麼不批准這場比賽時，懷特說道。

在發表上述評論之前，首席執行官聲稱他對保羅和他的兄弟傑克所寫的跳出框框的鬥爭沒有意見。他只是希望他們能更頻繁地與同等身材的人競爭。保羅在面對這位拳擊傳奇人物時擁有34磅的體重優勢。

據傳康納·麥格雷戈將於 6 月在白宮草坪上參加 UFC 比賽。

令人震驚的是，達納·懷特否認了康納·麥格雷戈在白宮與邁克爾·錢德勒對決的想法。

MMA 兄弟會的幾名成員原本預計錢德勒將在 UFC 具有紀念意義的白宮表演中與麥格雷戈對決。

UFC 白宮定於 6 月 14 日美國總統唐納德·特朗普生日那天舉行，慶祝美國成立 250 週年。

自從這張卡正式發布以來，球迷們就一直在爭論他們的夢想對決。

麥格雷戈一直是談話的焦點，因為他確認自己將重返活動，並作為第一步重新進入促銷藥物測試池。

這位愛爾蘭人甚至在九月確認錢德勒是他的對手，聲稱他將與美國選手對陣，以解決他們在《終極戰士》中的競爭。

達納懷特對康納麥格雷戈對陣邁克爾錢德勒說“不”

嗯，據老闆、UFC 首席執行官達納·懷特 (Dana White) 表示，這不是一場很快就會發生的戰鬥。

在接受《Complex》採訪時，懷特被問到，考慮到拳手、球迷和媒體的所有公開言論，麥格雷戈在白宮與錢德勒對戰是否是一個現實的提議。

“不，”懷特回答道。

“我的意思是，那是幾年前的事了。
