McGregor open to rematch with Holloway: He is not the best boxer in MMA

Max Holloway proclaimed himself the ‘best boxer in MMA’ during his five-round masterclass against Calvin Kattar at UFC Fight Island 7 last Saturday, but Conor McGregor might have something to say about that.

In fact, he does.

‘The Notorious’ praised ‘Blessed’ for his standout performance against Kattar but immediately shot down the notion that Max has the best hands in MMA, predicting a boxing masterclass of his own against Dustin Poirier at UFC 257 this weekend.

“I’m certainly more stable and connected to the floor and then I can flash it up,” McGregor told The Mac Life ahead of his rematch with Poirier.
