Conor McGregor is back, but can he really beat Max Holloway after years away from the Octagon?
Chael breaks down why so many people are overreacting to McGregor fighting at 170 pounds and explains why the extra weight may not matter nearly as much as fans think. Drawing from his own experience competing across multiple weight classes, Chael explains the real impact of size, conditioning, and speed—and why the biggest question isn't Conor's weight at all.
He also examines the mental hurdles of returning from a devastating leg injury, what Chris Weidman experienced after the same injury, and why Conor's clearest path to victory is getting Max Holloway out of there early.
Is there really a case for McGregor? Chael thinks there is—and explains exactly what it looks like.
Do you agree? Can Conor McGregor pull it off, or is Max Holloway simply too much at this stage of Conor's career? Let us know in the comments.
