I’ll sit down with the UFC. There was so much hype for that. We have to run it back one more time. We need one more.”I was looking forward to this. I was working hard to get to 170lb and fight this guy. For it to end like this, it sucks.”Former featherweight champion Holloway was making his debut at welterweight at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.The defeat is the seventh of McGregor’s career and fourth in his last five fights, with just one win on his record since 2016.UFC 329: McGregor’s comeback ends in defeat by Holloway after knee injury
