A brief bout of confused anger over the proposed interim title replacement fight has passed. Now, we can all feel a sense of relief.
Holloway took to Twitter on Friday night to issue a statement. He apologised to Ortega and the fans. 'Blessed' also gave props to Frankie Edgar and Jeremy Stephens for accepting the interim fight call. That proposed match-up came together too late and instead, the welterweight scrap between Mike Perry and Paul Felder was moved up to the main card.

Holloway responded to McGregor's second tweet of support on the matter. He even referenced a famous John Kavanagh quote before correcting his mistake with the Irish flag.

It's great to see the champ being witty on social media again.
Get well soon, Holloway.
