Overview
- UFC 329 is set for Saturday, July 11 at T‑Mobile Arena in Las Vegas with Conor McGregor and Max Holloway headlining a five‑round welterweight rematch.
- McGregor makes his first fight since a broken leg in July 2021 and carries a long layoff and no wins since January 2020 into the bout, raising ring‑rust and conditioning concerns.
- Max Holloway enters as the betting favorite based on recent activity and high‑volume striking, though sportsbooks narrowed lines during fight week as money moved on McGregor.
- The card has seen several undercard changes because of injuries, and the event is a commercial focal point in the UFC’s new CBS/Paramount+ broadcast era with pay‑per‑view plans for other markets.
- McGregor has two fights left on his contract and has publicly pushed for more bouts if he wins, so the result will shape his short‑term bargaining power and potential matchups later this year.
