Max Holloway defeated Conor McGregor in the UFC 329 main event last Saturday after McGregor went down injured in the opening seconds following a flying high kick. Yardbarker.com reported that the referee stopped the contest, awarding Holloway the victory. Holloway faced ongoing criticism for using McGregor's signature celebration after the referee called the fight.
He stated that he showed restraint during the bout because he knew McGregor's children were in the crowd. During a recent livestream on his Kick channel, Holloway read a fan question about the celebration and responded: “I did, I slipped the kick, he landed wrong, I ground-and-pounded him.
” Holloway said he would like a trilogy with McGregor next and plans to sit out until the Irish fighter returns.
Yardbarker.com reported that McGregor intends to undergo surgery before facing Holloway in the final fight of his UFC contract.
