Max Holloway Open to Long Wait for McGregor Trilogy Bout

Veteran featherweight Max Holloway has stated he’s not rushing a potential trilogy bout against Conor McGregor, and is prepared to be patient for the opportune moment. Holloway made it clear that his interest in facing the Irish star remains strong, but he’s willing to let the timing unfold naturally.

The former division king mentioned that he could see this highly anticipated matchup happening as far out as 2027. This suggests Holloway isn’t demanding an immediate booking and is open to the fight materializing down the line, perhaps as both fighters navigate other career objectives.

While Holloway is focused on his current path in the featherweight and lightweight divisions, the allure of a rubber match with McGregor, whom he has fought twice previously, clearly holds significant appeal for the Hawaiian fighter.
