McGregor Makes Bold Prediction for Holloway Rematch
Conor McGregor has made a stunning prediction for his return to the UFC on Saturday night, claiming he can knock out Max Holloway inside 10 seconds. The Irishman will face Holloway in a rematch 13 years in the making at UFC 329 in Las Vegas.
McGregor, who outpointed Holloway in 2013, will walk to the cage for the first time since breaking his leg in his trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier five years ago. Despite the long layoff, his confidence remains undimmed.
McGregor's 10-Second Knockout Claim
"I can destroy Max inside 10 seconds," McGregor said. "I have knockouts inside three seconds on my fighting record. I have Hall of Fame fighters, multiple Hall of Fame UFC fighters defeated and destroyed both together and under a minute, and I can add Max to that."
He added: "However, don't get it twisted. If we go into deep waters, Max is going to be in a lot of trouble, he will be badly concussed."
McGregor Vows to End Holloway's Career
McGregor doubled down on his prediction, backing himself to send Holloway into retirement. "I'm going to destroy Max," he said. "I'm going to eliminate Max. The final opponent of mine still within the UFC ranks. All of my other opponents are gone. Max is the last one left, and on Saturday night, he gets eliminated for good."
"He must not realise the danger he is in. I forecast Holloway's retirement on Saturday night."
Holloway Responds and Looks Ahead
Holloway, however, is the favourite ahead of the five-round main event. "I can't wait," Holloway said. "I think we see the best Conor McGregor come Saturday night and I look forward to it. I'm telling you, it's going to be a long night for Conor McGregor come Saturday night. We're taking him to deep, deep waters."
UFC 329: McGregor vs Holloway 2 will be broadcast exclusively live on TNT Sports Box Office via HBO Max, EE TV, Virgin Media TV, Prime Video and Sky.
