McGregor stated he has secured a "great deal" with the UFC, indicating a successful renegotiation of his contract, which he previously claimed was void due to the promotion's shift away from a pay-per-view model. The fight will be a welterweight bout, a division Holloway has not competed in previously, and serves as a rematch 13 years after McGregor defeated Holloway by decision in their initial encounter. The 37-year-old Irishman expressed confidence in his physical and mental readiness, highlighting his extensive preparation and a strategic approach to potential in-fight challenges, drawing lessons from his last fight in 2021 where he suffered a broken leg. This highly anticipated comeback fight is set to take place during the UFC's International Fight Week, following McGregor's earlier, unfulfilled desire to compete at a special event at the White House on 14 June.
