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.

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.”

Chael Sonnen doesn’t believe fans will ever see a third fight between Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz.

Speaking with MMA Junkie, Sonnen assessed the current status of one of MMA’s most anticipated trilogies for nearly a decade and concluded that the rubber match is never going to be possible due to the circumstances surrounding both fighters.

The talks follow Diaz’s recent revelation that he was in talks with the UFC about a return, with a trilogy fight against McGregor being the centerpiece of those discussions. Diaz passed up the opportunity, saying he wanted to fight Charles Oliveira for the BMF title instead, and eventually accepted a fight against Mike Perry on May 16 on Netflix.

Diaz said that his reason for leaving McGregor was that he only wanted a trilogy when both men were moving forward, not when one of them was on the way out.

Chael Sonnen says Nate Diaz isn’t cheating

Sonnen said, “Nate Diaz lives by a code, and you won’t be able to escape it.” “You won’t bribe him, you won’t pressure him. He lives by a code. It just gets complicated, but that’s not his negotiating strategy. He’s serious when he says, ‘I don’t want to fight Conor, Conor has been out for five years, and by the way, he’s got a leg injury. Let him come back, get a win and then I’ll come in.’

He said, “He wants to fight Charles Oliveira. Nobody wants to fight Charles Oliveira. Nate is serious.” “And it’s not just about Charles. It’s not just a jiu-jitsu fight. It’s the belt that escaped him. That BMF belt means something to him, and Charles is the guy to wear it. Nate is honest. Could he lose that fight to Mike Perry? Could the UFC lose interest in him over time? Of course. But that’s not going to change Nate’s mind.”

Diaz and McGregor split their two-fight series in 2016, with Diaz handing McGregor his first UFC defeat at UFC 196, before losing the rematch via majority decision at UFC 202. The unresolved nature of that rivalry has kept speculation about a third fight alive for the better part of a decade, but both men’s timelines are pulling in opposite directions.

Chael Sonnen predicts Conor McGregor has one UFC fight left

On the McGregor side of the equation, there is momentum building behind a return fight at UFC 329 in Las Vegas on July 11, which will take place almost exactly five years after he last competed against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 and suffered a broken leg.

Max Holloway has emerged as a potential opponent for that return. McGregor currently has two fights remaining on his deal, barring a new contract, putting him on a timeline that may not align with Diaz’s leadership. Sonnen thinks McGregor has a limited runway left, no matter what he says publicly.

“My guess on Conor is we’re going to get him another one, and I think we can really enjoy it,” Sonnen said. “Now, if you talk to Conor, and I did, you’ll get him at least three more times. He’ll make some fights and box. I think we’re going to get Conor for one more fight. I think we’ll probably miss the trilogy. Sadly.”

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.

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。

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。
