Conor McGregor has accepted Max Holloway's offer of a rematch almost a decade after the Irishman won their first meeting which by unanimous decision.
The pair both went on to become stars and world champions after the bout, with McGregor dethroning featherweight champion Jose Aldo before winning lightweight gold against Eddie Alvarez. Meanwhile, Holloway defeated Aldo twice to earn his own gold and proceeded to defend it on multiple occasions, becoming one of the greatest featherweights of all time.

Meanwhile, Holloway is confident that he could beat the Irishman if they fought again, frequently expressing his interest in making the rematch happen.
