Max Holloway hopes to push for a stadium event later this yr if he wins on July 11.
After his return was made official, Conor McGregor said that he’s already been given next April as one other fight date.
The concept the promotion would offer ‘The Notorious’ with two dates which are far apart was disputed by Dana White.
From Holloway’s perspective, he’s hoping that second date may be brought forward if it means establishing a trilogy bout before the top of the yr.

Max Holloway will pitch a trilogy with Conor McGregor at Allegiant Stadium in December
Max Holloway didn’t rule out staying at welterweight when asked what he’d do if offered a title shot in two divisions following July 11.
While spoiling Conor McGregor’s return will undoubtedly set ‘Blessed’ up for an enormous fight, avenging his previous loss implies that he’d be tied at one win each with ‘The Notorious’.
After Holloway pitched a trilogy fight in his interview with McGregor last month, he elaborated on his thoughts when chatting with ESPN MMA.
“He doesn’t need to wait a yr but I told him, you don’t have to worry, bro. I got you,” he said. “I am going on the market, do something exciting. You get to attempt to get your get back on me in December. That might be the proper world.”
Holloway added that his ideal scenario can be to fight McGregor at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, though he knows it will be tough to persuade Dana White after he’s made this suggestion up to now.
“I do know Dana White hates stadium shows, that’s why. In order that’s whatever but bro, I am going on the market, I get my hand raised in crazy fashion, poke the bear just a little bit more, poke Dana White. Allegiant Stadium in December. That’d be great. That’d be a hell of a yr especially with the best way the yr began for me.”
How high would Conor McGregor beating Max Holloway at UFC 329 rank amongst the perfect returns?
When McGregor said that he’s been given April as his next fight date, he was very enthusiastic about wanting this to be brought forward.
The potential of establishing an enormous fight, whether it’s a trilogy with Holloway or something else, could persuade the UFC to vary their plans.
Nonetheless, this being the last fight on McGregor’s contract would make things more complicated because of the negotiations that may likely happen.
