Max Holloway would school Conor in a rematch

At 155? Holloway didn’t look great against Poirer at that weight.

He looked a fuck load better than Conor, who got brutally finished twice and couldn't make it to round 3 in either fight.

Max looked fine, he went the distance with Poirier in his first fight at 155 in a competitive fight. And this is against a guy who is pretty clearly the #1 155 pounder now.
 
Conor will panic wrestle if he fought Max these days. Hell, he wrestled Max the first time they fought. Max's grappling has gotten much better so it would be unwise for Conor to try; but knowing Conor it'd be a possibility... Seeing what Max did to Ortega 1.0 and Kattar was horrifying. Conor does not want that smoke...
 
Both Poirier and Max had more UFC experience than Conor. Dustin was ranked top 5. Max and Conor will only fight once and the world will remember how prime Conor clowned him. Not sure what point you’re making wanting to see Max fight an alcoholic, mentally ill, 33 year old Conor at this point lmao
Because of people like you who will remember and bring up how a "prime" Conor clowned on striped jiu jitsu white belt in Max who literally started training Jiu Jitsu/Grappling a year before they fought whilst Conor was a purple belt training his ground game since 08. Conor better have won on the ground with that much more exp on the ground. Now if they ever fight again, Max clowns on him this time around, it's not Max's fault Conor is a alcoholic & mentally ill 2.0 version of the fighter that beat him when he was green many many years ago. The world will remember their first meeting, but the world will remember Holloway as one if not best Featherweights to ever compete backed with defenses and countless top wins. You can live in the past.
