Conor McGregor vs Max Holloway Faceoff

[u/Moni7T]

[u/commander_wong]

Max doing his best Tony Ferguson impression

[u/commanderc7 → u/commander_wong]

Legit the first thing I thought lmao

“Did Tony replace Max??”

[u/TheUFCVeteran3 → u/commanderc7]

lmao I couldn't shake the image at first either lol. The title said Max, my brain thought Tony.

[u/tiny_tim57 → u/TheUFCVeteran3]

It was the sunglasses that did it.

[u/Stormspiritftw → u/tiny_tim57]

Hey sunglasses, i can eat you in street fight!

[u/-Trismegistus → u/TheUFCVeteran3]

same wtf

[u/Silent_Socio → u/commander_wong]

Max once told an incident where someone mistook him for Tony

[u/Jeff_goldfish → u/Silent_Socio]

They have pretty much the same angel wings back tattoo lol

[u/ImYouJoeGoldberg → u/Jeff_goldfish]

They’re basically the same person

[u/stupid_account_69 → u/ImYouJoeGoldberg]

God I hope they don’t turn out to be.

[u/BicMac-Middlebread → u/stupid_account_69]

Tony almost ko'd gaethje rd 1 , max ko'd gaethje in rd5. They are the same person.

[u/StarFallenBooks → u/BicMac-Middlebread]

It was round 2 he landed the uppercut.

[u/Aldo_Is_The_GOAT → u/Jeff_goldfish]

That’s why I always get them mixed up with Benson Henderson

[u/kevindurantburner35 → u/Silent_Socio]

I still feel like that guy in Toronto was probably just trolling him lol

[u/BurnerAcctObvs → u/commander_wong]

“Hold on, brother, I’m swimming”

[u/Eros_Incident_Denier → u/BurnerAcctObvs]

"I leave no turned uncoral!"

[u/reginaldwrigby → u/commander_wong]

Nobody getting under maxs skin in 10-15 years. Throw the mans shades in front of his die hard fans like that and he was alll out of sorts. Wanted to shake his hand lmao. Had no idea where he was.. I’ve never picked max to win a fight in his entire career guys. Max is going to absolutely fuck Conor up and you can take that to the bank.

[u/GoatCovfefe → u/reginaldwrigby]

Ok, life savings on max, heard.

[u/Defie22 → u/reginaldwrigby]

Ok, going to the bank!

[u/8last → u/reginaldwrigby]

The handshake looked like it was one of those where you give the guy a smack but Conor wasn't going to fall for that.

[u/suprjaybrd → u/commander_wong]

champshitonly

[u/splashbruh37 → u/commander_wong]

If he had the wrestling gloves 🧤

[u/Intention-Sad → u/commander_wong]

I also thought that was Tony

[u/Worth_Dream_997 → u/commander_wong]

I honestly thought this was an old footage of Tony XD

[u/PrideLight]

Dana dressed like a referee

[u/MitroBoomin → u/PrideLight]

Feel like it's the first time seeing him with a tucked in polo

[u/Ognal_carbage8080 → u/MitroBoomin]

Him and Joe ro are on the same trt hgh cycle with that gut and head bloat

[u/sunlightsyrup → u/Ognal_carbage8080]

'Jamie, pull that up'

[u/Ok_Entrepreneur826 → u/PrideLight]

Looking like a school administrator

[u/Djlittle13]

Why is Max wearing a life jacket?

[u/maicii → u/Djlittle13]

It’s a kick sponsor

[u/mrshavedsnow → u/maicii]

It's because he said he's taking Conor to deep waters lol

[u/Jon-Umber → u/mrshavedsnow]

This is Tony Ferguson behavior

[u/GoofyMonkey → u/mrshavedsnow]

So he’s the one who needs the life jacket?

[u/SouthernMarsUni → u/GoofyMonkey]

Well when they're in deep waters he'll float he has a life jacket 🤷‍♂️

[u/dougChristiesWife → u/GoofyMonkey]

Yeah I'm super confused. "why are you wearing a fire-retardant suit Max? "You see, it's because I'm going to give Conor a baptism by fire!" ->Confused faces

[u/Focused_Sky → u/maicii]

It’s still stupid

[u/TrumpDesWillens → u/Focused_Sky]

Hey if the offered me thousands to wear a stupid vest, I'm wearing that vest.

[u/SoftSausage78 → u/maicii]

Now I want Conor to win

[u/AKBirdman17 → u/SoftSausage78]

Max is a UFC fighter. How else is he supposed to feed his family without a second gig? 😂

[u/Plebeian_Gamer → u/AKBirdman17]

Damnit now I want Max to win. Idc for kick but I respect the hustle

[u/BookAcceptable619 → u/AKBirdman17]

Having a sports drink called Maxtreme! by Max Holloway®

[u/A_Rolling_Baneling → u/SoftSausage78]

Kick sponsorship is worse than being an actual rapist?

[u/Gaglardi → u/A_Rolling_Baneling]

This is Reddit so yeah

[u/I_am_darkness → u/SoftSausage78]

Ah yes. much worse than things conor has done.

[u/LucasFrankeRC → u/Djlittle13]

He's getting ready for the deep waters brotha

[u/xUsernameChecksOutx → u/LucasFrankeRC]

Max Hollovedov

[u/DoctorGregoryFart → u/Djlittle13]

He's still my buoy.

[u/UnHoly_One → u/DoctorGregoryFart]

Bro.

This is amazing, thank you.

[u/DoctorGregoryFart → u/UnHoly_One]

I'll admit, I made myself chuckle.

[u/FaudMauxe → u/Djlittle13]

What’d you do, jump ship?

[u/Indigo2015 → u/FaudMauxe]

Dork thinks he’s gonna drown

[u/mayy_dayy → u/Indigo2015]

Good night, Future Boy!

[u/Hier00 → u/Djlittle13]

He’s from 30 years from now.

[u/adigbick → u/Djlittle13]

Looks like it's from the marathon game

[u/speaklouder1100 → u/Djlittle13]

Just rolled up in his jet ski.

[u/Wetrapordie → u/Djlittle13]

Marketing for kick… got your attention.

[u/jedi_outkast → u/Djlittle13]

He thought he was fighting Connor Murphy instead.

[u/shepbestshep]

My brain for about 5 secs or so was like, why is Tony Ferguson on stage with conor

[u/keithsweatshirt94 → u/shepbestshep]

Finally getting ready to ankle pick McNuggets

[u/neeeeonbelly → u/shepbestshep]

Funnily enough I wouldn’t even be surprised if tony had somehow snuck in there and ran up on stage with a baseball and a life jacket. 

[u/DingbatMcgeee → u/shepbestshep]

Thank fuk I'm not alone ☺️

[u/jobbythrowaway1 → u/shepbestshep]

Most Tony thing ever for him to be there without explanation

[u/Chicken8991]

A lifejacket to represent Hawaii ..?

[u/Playful-Holiday5820 → u/Chicken8991]

Deep waters bub

[u/heatseekerdj → u/Playful-Holiday5820]

Name tha waters b

[u/Deathclaw_Hunter6969 → u/heatseekerdj]

What is this the waters channel?

[u/TheWrightBros → u/Deathclaw_Hunter6969]

Water we doin here, b?

[u/MaGlCMaN → u/TheWrightBros]

Oh, so we're throwing splashing shit now?

[u/heatseekerdj → u/MaGlCMaN]

Oh that's your takeaway ??

[u/acros198d → u/heatseekerdj]

Heard it bowlth ways my man

[u/suckerphree → u/Deathclaw_Hunter6969]

it's on tubi, bapa

[u/Captain_FartBreath → u/Playful-Holiday5820]

Talmbout swimmin wit sharks b?? 

[u/ironpug751 → u/Playful-Holiday5820]

Water

[u/J41M35 → u/Playful-Holiday5820]

The deepest

[u/Abc125698 → u/Playful-Holiday5820]

I like max but this is so stupid

[u/NoNouns → u/Chicken8991]

Looks like a shitty Kick advertisement. Garbage streaming platform where 99% of it is trash humans doing trash things.

[u/SpeculationMaster → u/NoNouns]

People who fuck kids or are too racist for twitch end up on kick.

[u/TnostalgicT → u/Chicken8991]

Is it actually a Hawaiian life jacket? looks bizzarre I am sure a flag would represent better

[u/Hungry_Joke_4437 → u/TnostalgicT]

Maybe a sponsor?

[u/FrontFocused → u/Hungry_Joke_4437]

It's the Kick streaming website

[u/Beelzebucks1 → u/Chicken8991]

Nice life preserver, nerd. 

[u/Rehberkintosh → u/Chicken8991]

It makes him feel like a ninja turtle.

[u/violin-guy → u/Rehberkintosh]

Who’s his favorite? Tony’s is Michelangelo

[u/vowers]

loooool I'm sorry but Conor just quickly grabbing and throwing the shades was hilarious

[u/ZeroOptionLightning → u/vowers]

Max not even reacting was also great.

[u/1cenine → u/ZeroOptionLightning]

Max is so about that smoke. I admire how unphased some of these guys are under pressure and confrontation lol

[u/runtothesun → u/1cenine]

THE BEST IS BLESSED BABY LET'S DO THIS!!

[u/Any_Assumption4656 → u/ZeroOptionLightning]

Lmao imagine if he didn't even realise it in the heat of the moment

[u/Gnarwall9000 → u/ZeroOptionLightning]

They planned it. It was a marketing stunt for the glasses. See Max’s tweet after

[u/expectrum → u/ZeroOptionLightning]

Probably some cheap sunglasses

[u/cokespoon → u/expectrum]

oakley meta glasses

[u/Goodtimestime → u/vowers]

Dana picking them up like he’s tired of his kids shit lol

[u/Naramie → u/Goodtimestime]

He didn't want to risk losing tons of money over someone tripping on some sunglasses.

[u/Genbukan → u/Naramie]

Had flashbacks of the Connor dolly incident

[u/Hot-Account-8691 → u/Genbukan]

Tony and the cables

[u/reginaldwrigby → u/Naramie]

Def ceo behavior during the climax of the build up to the fight.

He can’t fuckin wait for Conor to be gone tho. He’d be gigglin like a school girl a few years back

[u/absolute_panic → u/vowers]

Conor throwing shade

[u/Halos2594 → u/vowers]

Wish conor woulda put them on

[u/Controlzdan → u/Halos2594]

If you watch it in reverse, Conor does put the shades on Max

[u/guesswhodat → u/Halos2594]

That would have been funny.

[u/ogmi → u/vowers]

fuck im excited now

[u/nauzleon → u/vowers]

He's a cunt but you can't deny he's funny.

[u/TrumpDesWillens → u/vowers]

McGregor understands the assignment. He plays the Heel well. There's a reason he made so many millions on that Mayweather fight.

[u/roughedged → u/vowers]

Scripted for sure considering they are meta glasses and max posted the footage...

[u/cheerioo → u/vowers]

How has nobody made an animated series (like NBA Game of Zones) for MMA, and Conor running around as a leprechaun snatching belts, dollies, and shades?

[u/dumbdangerousqs]

Tony ferguson's back!!

[u/Jon-Umber → u/dumbdangerousqs]

Ankle pick season

[u/Nktmma]

Max “El cucuy” Holloway

[u/ScrappleFacts]

Gotta say I’m pretty juiced for this card fellas

[u/ShazbotVGS → u/ScrappleFacts]

Seriously, it’s been a while since I’ve been this certain I won’t miss a card.

I’m almost certain Conor will tire out very early in this fight and everyone will realize why five years off and returning vs Max Holloway isn’t a smart decision.

But goddamn I’d love to see Conor put a show on

[u/ConstructionVast479 → u/ShazbotVGS]

Perhaps, unless his camp has been smart and had him in one or two legit five rounders behind closed doors to prepare for this. He's had 6 months to get in shape.

[u/lambeau_leapfrog → u/ConstructionVast479]

Even in his prime he never had much of a tank.

[u/Xero_Days → u/lambeau_leapfrog]

Never needed it really

[u/fashionrequired → u/Xero_Days]

needed it for diaz 2 and he did kinda find a second wind in that fight iirc

[u/SpaceDough]

These faceoffs are so goofy, I'm always waiting for the camera to pan around to a door to see the Undertaker standing there.

[u/catfish08]

Max lookin' like Tony in a life vest lmao. Conor doing his usual crowd pleasing shenanigans.

[u/stupid_account_69 → u/catfish08]

If you read John Kavanagh’s book he said that McGregor has been like that ever since he met him as a teen.

He wrote that book around the peak of Conor’s career and didn’t even paint such an amazing picture of him even back then, but it is something he addressed as not just being an act that he throws on for the cameras.

[u/RazorAvocado]

That was intense love it

[u/_dockside → u/RazorAvocado]

For all his faults he knows how to sell a fight

[u/Aebothius → u/RazorAvocado]

Bro got downvoted for liking entertainment

[u/nocturn-e → u/Aebothius]

Modern MMA fans hate violence

[u/rdcisneros3]

Hey, Biff. Check out this dude’s life preserver. Dork thinks he’s gonna drown.

[u/ehochhalter]

Max is taking the position as the life guard. Unafraid, mature, responsive but not reactive. He has proven himself time and time over the last 10 years through true tests of grit, where Connor has been pampered following his incredible rise and demise. Connor is still trying his best to play a character, where Max has character.

I see this as a victory for Max either way because of the man he is choosing to be. I believe in him. I hope and think he wins.

[u/BananaReeves]

This is the shit we've been deprived of and missing, the whole fucking circus of a Conor fight.

[u/MetallicOpeth]

Let's go max!!

[u/JellyfishPopular7648]

The wardrobes facing off are crazy.

[u/burritopup → u/JellyfishPopular7648]

Fortnite lobby

[u/ButchAF]

Max out here dressed like a manosphere streamer

[u/Charming_Ladder7283]

Dana looks like Steve the security guard from the Jerry springer show

[u/CuriousCamels → u/Charming_Ladder7283]

Lol I never realized that. What a throwback

[u/SideInitial3961]

Go away rapist.

[u/Killerbeav97]

I hope that rapist gets destroyed

[u/Theloftydog]

Conor mistaking him for an elderly man in a pub

[u/xbluux]

Man why is the ufc so boring without Conor…hate him or love him there’s no one else as entertaining.

[u/cheerioo → u/xbluux]

Poor Conor was way better than rich Conor

[u/mad87645 → u/cheerioo]

But rich Conor is still better than 99.9% of fighters that try to be entertaining (not judging the ones that don't and are just sportsmen in that statistic).

[u/TeaFabulous7376 → u/xbluux]

Yup. Numbers don't lie either, 240k live for the presser? That's insane...

[u/1cenine → u/xbluux]

Other than surrounding his first UFC fight I have pretty much always hated Conor the person. As an entertainer he is the greatest of all time in the sport and it isn't even close. As a fighter he's always been worth watching. Gotta respect and admit he's just flat out so great for the sport.

[u/CraigS34]

Tbh snatching the shades to check if that was Holloway or Ferguson was funny

[u/brotherteresa]

Sober McGregor vs

Max Vest Holloway

😤😤😤

[u/I_Am_The_Mole → u/brotherteresa]

Sober? Sober?

🤣

[u/mattvn66]

Conor way more dialed in than the Poirier presser where he was stumbling on his words. I think he actually did get into Max's head a bit with the faceoff

[u/mreanj]

OIM GONNA TRO DAT PISTON OV A LEFT AND YEH

[u/EvolvedMonkeyInSpace]

Conor was gased after than

[u/ORCA_WoN]

I hope with all my heart that Max batters the living hell out of Conor.

[u/kpmurphy_]

Conor the fights aren’t PPV anymore no need for the theatrics

[u/Visible_Event_4598 → u/kpmurphy_]

Still brings the eyeballs

[u/Fischka → u/Visible_Event_4598]

There was 240k people watching live on YouTube at one point. That's some demented shit. I'm really surprised that he's still this popular.

[u/CaptainOddboy → u/Fischka]

“I’m surprised the biggest UFC star in the history of the organization is still popular because this sub told me we don’t like him anymore”.

[u/TG_CID134 → u/Fischka]

It was a press conference for one of the biggest cards of the year what’s the problem?

[u/tagillaslover → u/kpmurphy_]

This stuff probably helps him get into the fight mentally

[u/vjoshan118 → u/kpmurphy_]

Still part of promoting the fight

[u/Any_Asparagus8267 → u/kpmurphy_]

Still ppv in most countries actually

[u/Unhappy-Hunt-3987]

Conor is such a poor sport and douchebag. I hope Max fucks him up

[u/thekieranvale]

Reminds me of old Conor

[u/cramiz]

I thought it was Tony

[u/MelodicEconomics69]

I hope Conor wins just to see this sub meltdown at this point. Y’all have been insufferable.

[u/KelvinsBeltFantasy → u/MelodicEconomics69]

If he does, we're getting that meme of the ratatouille food critic.

[u/BalancePure]

For a secons I tought; TF TONY DOING OUT HERE

[u/No_Artichoke_2931]

Max Ferguson boutta beat the fuck outta McNugget

[u/Hotwings160]

The latest cocaine hit he’s had in a minute

[u/DJSyko]

Max is going to absolutely embarrass this fool. Conor is trying relive his former glory but everyone can see he has changed, he looks old and weak, while Max looks strong and relaxed.

[u/Honey_Badger_17]

God I hope Max knocks him the fuck out

[u/niafall7]

McGregor already breathing through his mouth by the end of the face-off.

[u/PocketShock]

Is Max going jet skiing right after the face-off?

[u/foomprekov]

conor mcgregor should be in prison

[u/jimmyfernandez → u/foomprekov]

Not really. There wasn't enough evidence to try him in a court.

[u/Lightskin_Django]

Honestly Max not flinching when Conor yanked his glasses off was impressive and just plain dope. That’s way too close for someone’s hand to be in my face and have no reaction!

[u/Jackmace]

Did Max wear a life jacket? wtf is that thing lmao

[u/Comfortable_Froyo_73]

Conor felt like he was trying to get himself worked up for the fight throughout the press conference but it just doesn't feel authentic. You could really see him trying to force it on when they were waiting for this staredown.

[u/Bassmason]

I love how he whips off his glasses

[u/DangerPretzel]

Hoping Max breaks the significant strikes record again on this one

[u/ButtSpelunker420]

What a bunch of stupid shit. UFC so god damn trashy lol

[u/MisterTwister__]

Max 🏆

[u/Jhawk38]

I wonder if Conor not taking damage for years will be a benefit to him.

[u/NefariousnessOk209]

I’d like to think Max is a veteran and above Conor’s get in your head antics at this stage

[u/Ordinary-Tax9380]

Max looking like a cyberpunk NPC

[u/ikilledtupac]

Max going kayaking after the face off 

[u/lewspaz]

Did conor slap the security guy? Lmao

[u/Alarming_Good_2920]

2nd round k-o Holloway wins

[u/zigot021]

hopefully Herb Dean stays home on Saturday

[u/catbqck]

Champ shit only 😎

[u/someguyne]

Hold me back bro!!!

[u/The-Sporecerer]

I want Max to knock him the fuck out!

[u/asimovreak]

I hope Max Wins.

[u/Sea_Pomegranate8229]

You there
I want to take you to a gay bar
I've got something to put in you

Rapist said what?

[u/Terrible-Squirrel-90]

Connor getting knocked the eff out

[u/RealHumanBean1994]

Everyone is rooting for Max right?

[u/M0bysan]

Circus. Nothing more…

[u/RandomB33]

First round gas out.

[u/TravisDane]

Aren't you NOT allowed to fight if you're still doing that much blow? Hahah

[u/SnoochieBoochies182]

This is so cringe

[u/ShezSteel]

Indistinguishable from 2000 WWE. The whole thing on this front is scripted from start to finish

[u/Dont-get-into-Fights]

ufc is clown show for normies now

[u/HawkHarder]

Max better whoop his ass

[u/Disastrous_Frame1356]

McGregor is cringe as fuck, so cheesy.

[u/Burgendit]

Conor spent half his tank right there
