Topuria refuses to pick favorite in potential Holloway vs McGregor matchup

Ilia Topuria declined to choose a favorite in a hypothetical fight between Max Holloway and Conor McGregor. Topuria stated that when you lose to Nate Diaz, it becomes very difficult to make predictions about future fights. His comment appeared to reference McGregor's 2016 submission loss to Diaz at UFC 196. The statement suggests Topuria views McGregor's past performance as complicating any assessment of how he would fare against Holloway. No details about whether this fight is actually being discussed were provided in the post.
