Overview
- The UFC has confirmed Conor McGregor will headline UFC 329 against Max Holloway at T‑Mobile Arena on Saturday, July 11, in a five-round rematch contested at welterweight.
- McGregor says a quiet, no‑flash training camp has him feeling “absolutely amazing” and that fighting at 170 pounds gives his strikes a different, heavier impact.
- Holloway has welcomed McGregor’s trash talk but publicly urged him to show up and outlined a pressure plan he says will take McGregor into the later rounds and wear him down.
- Betting markets and many analysts rate Holloway the favorite because of his recent activity and championship experience, and victory for either fighter could alter near‑term title trajectories.
- The main event remains on track despite undercard changes earlier in the week, and the bout carries big commercial weight for International Fight Week and Paramount+ while fans debate McGregor’s readiness.
