Though it seems a lifetime past, less than a year ago, Conor McGregor was the reigning UFC featherweight champion, having taken the title off of Jose Aldo at UFC 194 in December 2015. McGregor’s reign as champion was brief though, the UFC stripping him of his title when he won the lightweight belt last November. Since then, Max Hollowaydefeated Aldo to claim the featherweight title for himself, and though Holloway is confident his status as champion will remain the same should McGregor ever deign to return to 145 pounds, the featherweight champion doesn’t seem to think that’s likely.

Conor shut him once now why would he give him another chance?

A rematch goes completely different. I think Holloway would win relatively easily if he survived the first two rounds.

Conor's not going back to that weightclass and it's not because of any fighter there.

Suffice it to say that Connie doesn't care about that weight class......

what if Conor fixed his cardio issues?
Then Max has a lot more of an issue to deal with. Would be competitive or one sided for Conor. But Max has shown great adaptability. I still don't think people give him enough credit for how good he is. I used to be a hater/doubter but he's at the point now where he can't be denied.

Only chance he'd have is to try and win 1 of the first 3 rounds and 4+5.... Conor's gas tank is a big weakness for him compared to earlier in his career due to his fights being 5 rounds rather than 3 when he was coming up

I guess it's safe to say Conor's been exposed. Everyone and their mother knows Conor has a cardio problem.
