Max Holloway: Conor McGregor has been trying to ‘bully me’ the entire time

Reigning UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway feels like Conor McGregor has tried to ‘bully’ him on social media, and has urged other fighters to stand up for themselves when the Irishman posts trash talk online.

Holloway and McGregor got into a back and forth earlier this month when ‘The Notorious’ called out ‘Blessed’ for pulling out of his featherweight championship bout at UFC 222.

Holloway, who was expected to defend his title against Frankie Edgar in the main event before being sidelined with a leg injury, fired back at McGregor and took a jab at his new Burger King commercial.
