Holloway (17-3) is listed as the +120 underdog and won the interim title last December 10 at UFC 206 with a third-round TKO win over Anthony Pettis.

The Brazilian Aldo (26-2) was promoted to featherweight champ again after winning the interim belt last July 9 at UFC 200 when he defeated Frankie Edgar via unanimous decision. McGregor had won the title from him with a stunning 13-second knockout at UFC 194 on December 12, 2015.
