McGregor to Return at Welterweight Against Holloway in UFC 329

The July 11 outcome could validate McGregor’s comeback or redirect both fighters’ title momentum.

Overview

  • The main event, which is set for Saturday, July 11, will headline UFC 329 at T‑Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and stream on Paramount+.
  • Conor McGregor says he has run a quiet, no‑flash training camp and that moving to 170 pounds adds measurable power he plans to use on fight night.
  • Max Holloway has publicly brushed off McGregor’s talk, urged him to ‘just please show up,’ and says he plans to push the pace and drain McGregor in the later rounds.
  • Bookmakers and many analysts favor Holloway but warn McGregor remains a dangerous early knockout threat, a view echoed by peers such as Alexander Volkanovski.
  • Beyond the personal comeback narrative, the fight carries real competitive and commercial stakes because a win could put either man back on a title track and deliver a major payday during International Fight Week.
