Max Holloway enters the fight ranked fourth in the lightweight division and ninth on the pound-for-pound list. The 34-year-old Hawaiian, who trains out of Gracie Technics, carries a 27-9 record into the contest. Known for one of the most relentless output games in the sport, Holloway lands 7.2 significant strikes per minute at 48 percent accuracy, making him one of the most dangerous volume strikers in any division. Standing five-foot-eleven with a 69-inch reach, he fights out of an orthodox stance.

Conor McGregor, the 37-year-old Dubliner representing SBG Ireland, brings a 22-6 record and the kind of star power that sells arenas worldwide. The southpaw stands five-foot-nine but owns a notably long 74-inch reach, a physical advantage that has served him well throughout his career. McGregor lands 5.32 significant strikes per minute with a 49 percent accuracy rate, and he also contributes on the ground, averaging 0.67 takedowns per 15 minutes.
