Max Holloway on Conor McGregor: ‘He’s human just like all of us’

During Conor McGregor’s latest hiatus from MMA competition, much of the focus on the MMA superstar has turned away from his performances in the Octagon, and instead to a string of troubling legal issues.

Starting with his assault on a bus full of fighters with a dolly during a fightweek event for UFC 223 in 2018, McGregor has been charged with robbery – for the destruction of a cell phone at a Miami hotel (the case was settled out of court, and charges dropped) – and plead guilty to assaulting a man in a Dublin pub over the man’s refusal to drink Conor’s ‘Proper 12’ whiskey.
