“Notorious” is an underdog — at least for now.
And if the early betting lines are any indication, oddsmakers aren’t exactly siding with the Irish superstar.
According to BetOnline, McGregor has opened as a +235 underdog, while Holloway sits comfortably as a -270 favorite — and within a couple of hours, the line juiced to +270 and -330
Meanwhile, Holloway has stayed active against elite competition. Despite a tough loss to Charles Oliveira in March 2026 that cost him his BMF title, “Blessed” has competed eight times during McGregor’s absence and remains one of the most durable and high-volume strikers in the sport.
Now, more than a decade later, they could run it back — at very different stages of their careers.
What say you, Maniacs? Is +235 enough to tempt a McGregor bet?
