UFC Featherweight Champion Max Holloway successfully returned to the Octagon, defending his belt against Brian ‘T-City’ Ortega in an exciting fight which had the fans on the edge of their seats. Holloway earned a lot of praise from both fans and fellow fighters alike.
UFC superstar Conor Mcgregor who was a former opponent of Max Holloway was on of those who congratulated Max on Twitter.
“I was very happy to see Max return healthy and sharp in there the other night. Great win.”
Thank you Chael. I was very happy to see Max return healthy and sharp in there the other night. Great win. https://t.co/O9e2lMSD8Q

The former UFC Featherweight and Lightweight champion was replying to a tweet from Chael Sonnen. Conor defeated Max Holloway by unanimous decision in 2013 in Boston.
Max has said many times that he wants to rematch Conor Mcgregor due to the fact that the previous fight happened when Max was a ‘kid’. Dana White too has repeatedly said that he prefers Max at 155 pounds after his health issues which caused him to withdraw from two consecutive fights.
It remains to be seen if eventually Holloway moves up to the Lightweight division and claims his rematch with Mcgregor who although happy for Max, still reminded the netizens about who he thought was the real greatest featherweight of all time after a fan tweeted that Conor had defeated both Jose Aldo and Max in dominant fashion.
What’s that make me? https://t.co/laJK3COquQ
