"People are like, 'He did compliment you, Max. Why are you saying stuff about him?' No, he didn't! He said facts. After we fought, I'm on this winning streak. He was talking facts and at the end, he said he won. It is what it is."McGregor reeled off a list of potential opponents at that Scottish Q&A, including a ridiculous MMA fight offer to former world boxing champion Paulie Malignaggi. As Holloway sees it, McGregor is leaning towards the money-making crazy match-ups as opposed to ones that legitimise his belt.
"It's this little guy trying to bring it up and at the end, he said the fight between me and him is there, but it's very low on the totem pole and he's over there talking about Paulie in MMA, the guy should call up CM Punk. At least CM Punk got some time in the UFC ring or whatever. It makes no sense to me. He's fighting exhibition matches. If you don't want to be about that champ life, so be it."https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/917162463833067521 'Blessed' also brought up one of the most painful losses of McGregor's career to prove a point. It's worth noting that McGregor dropped down a weight class after suffering that unforgettable submission at the hands of compatriot Joseph Duffy.
"Whenever he talks about Joe Duffy now he's like, 'That's when were kids and blah-blah-blah so young and I didn't know what was going on.' It's like, when I fought (you), I'm pretty sure I was a kid and I didn't know what was going on. I was still growing."It's a fair point. Both McGregor and Holloway have improved exponentially since they fought. Considering how young and injured they were the first time, who wouldn't want to see them go at it again? He may not be as far down the totem pole as he might think.
