Looking ahead, Holloway has expressed interest in a rematch with featherweight champion Ilia Topuria, who was in attendance at UFC 300.
Additionally, he remains open to opportunities in the lightweight division or even defending his BMF title.
Meanwhile, McGregor is gearing up for his much-anticipated return to the Octagon after recovering from a leg injury sustained in his last bout against Dustin Poirier in July 2021.
Dana White announced during the UFC 300 post-fight press conference that McGregor will face Michael Chandler in a welterweight bout at UFC 303 on June 29. The event, set to take place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, promises to be a highlight of International Fight Week.
