Conor McGregor was clearly in a sort of nostalgic mood when he pumped up the Boston Bruins before their NHL game last night. After doing so, he took to social media to remind Max Holloway about his victory over him almost six years ago. Now it’s time Holloway destroys that flimsy callout, however.

The gloves seem to be off between these two former and perhaps current rivals. McGregor has hinted at a return this July. Holloway, meanwhile, will face Dustin Poirier for the interim title in the main event of April 13’s UFC 236.
It may not happen, but a rematch would be big business thanks to their history.
