Conor McGregor has revealed his desire to return to the UFC and complete a trilogy fight against Max Holloway in 2027, reigniting talk of another comeback inside the Octagon.
McGregor and Holloway first met in 2013, with the Irishman winning by unanimous decision in a featherweight bout. Years later, Holloway became one of the division’s biggest stars, making a potential third meeting a highly anticipated matchup among MMA fans.
The former two-division UFC champion has repeatedly teased a return after suffering setbacks, including injuries and a long absence from competition. However, McGregor remains confident that he can still compete at the highest level and wants to settle the rivalry with Holloway once more.
Holloway, known for his toughness and striking ability, has continued to build his legacy in the UFC, making a trilogy fight with McGregor a major attraction if it becomes reality.
While no official date or agreement has been confirmed, McGregor’s latest comments have once again sparked excitement over a possible comeback and one of the biggest fights the UFC could stage in 2027.
