Alright, so I saw this wild debate online about who would win in a fight: Holloway or McGregor. I’m a huge MMA fan, so of course, I had to dive deep into this.

First thing I did was pull up their records. You know, just to get a feel for their wins, losses, and how they usually finish fights. I went straight to the source, looking at their official UFC stats, their win-loss and everything.
Next, I watched a ton of fight footage. Like, hours of it. I wasn’t just watching for fun, though. I was trying to see their styles, their strengths, and their weaknesses. With Holloway, it’s all about that volume striking and insane cardio. The guy just doesn’t stop. And McGregor? Power, and precision.
- Holloway fights.
- McGregor fights.
- Old fights.
- New fights.
- Highlights, lowlights, everything!
Then I started looking at any interviews or analyses I could find. I wanted to hear what other fighters, coaches, and experts had to say about these two.
After that I start to write my own notes, with my own hand! Here are some of my scratch.
- Holloway: volume, cardio, chin, takedown defense?
- McGregor: power, precision, timing, ground game?
Finally, I tried to picture the fight in my head. How would it actually go down? Would Holloway be able to weather McGregor’s early storm? Would McGregor be able to handle Holloway’s pace?
Honestly, I can see this fight play out in the number of ways.
