UFC star Max Holloway calls out Gervonta Davis for Conor McGregor-style fight

Max Holloway has called out Gervonta Davis for a boxing fight as he plots a switch from the UFC.

Davis is considered one of the biggest rising stars in the world of boxing, a status he cemented further after dispatching of bitter rival Ryan Garcia in a mega showdown last weekend. The 28-year-old is considered one of the biggest draws remaining in the sport stateside having began his career following in the footsteps of undefeated legend Floyd Mayweather.

There will be a number of potential fights on the table for Davis given his dominant victory including a potential undisputed title challenge against the winner of Devin Haney's clash with Vasyl Lomachenko next month. However UFC featherweight Holloway has suggested he would be willing to create an event with Davis, that he hopes would emulate the crossover meeting between Mayweather and Conor McGregor.
