McGregor set the MMA community abuzz earlier this week with claims that he was set to step in to face Edgar when Holloway pulled out with an injury. However, Edgar has refuted all banter of being offered a fight with McGregor at UFC 222. Edgar added--
“I’m putting it totally aside, because it’s easy with this whole Conor news and Max, it’s easy to get sidetracked and think about Max, think about Conor.” Edgar continued--“I’ve got to focus on Ortega, man. It’s a dangerous fight. Everyone says, ‘Oh, it’s a risky fight,’ and they’re right. I’m putting a lot of the line and that’s my focus.”
