Shortly after his win at UFC Vegas 42, Max Holloway took to Twitter to troll Conor McGregor.
The former UFC featherweight champion highlighted a now-infamous Conor McGregor quote. Before his third fight with Dustin Poirier, McGregor revealed he only counts knockouts as legitimate victories in mixed martial arts.
Going by that logic, the Irishman claimed that he has 19 wins and one loss on his record. Speaking to ESPN's Stephen A. Smith ahead of UFC 264, McGregor said:
“My record [in MMA] is 19 wins and one loss. I only count knockouts. The only thing that’s final in this business is a knockout... The decisions, the taps, all that s**t means nothing to me.”

Conor McGregor and Max Holloway are no strangers to each other on social media. The two men have been going back-and-forth against one another for weeks. The Irishman also posted an interesting video of him virtually staring down Holloway before his latest fight.
Here's the tweet Conor McGregor sent out moments before Max Holloway's fight:
There is currently no indication of what the UFC has planned for Holloway going forward. McGregor's name has been thrown into the mix as a potential future opponent for 'Blessed'.
The two men previously collided with one another back in 2013 when 'The Notorious' defeated Max Holloway via decision in a fight that occurred at featherweight.
Max Holloway marked his octagon return with an incredible win over Yair Rodriguez
In the main event of UFC Vegas 42, Max Holloway and Yair Rodriguez took each other to the limit in a five-round war. Rodriguez made his return to the octagon for the first time since his 2019 win over Jeremy Stephens.
In his return fight, 'El Pantera' looked better than many had assumed he would and caused a lot of trouble for Holloway during several stages of the fight. However, a resilient Holloway maintained his composure throughout the fight and eventually walked out with the win via unanimous decision.
With the win, it now remains to be seen if Max Holloway will face Alexander Volkanovski for the third time or not.
