​All that remains for Conor McGregor and Max Holloway is to step into the fight arena. After a long and turbulent five-year hiatus from MMA competition, McGregor is back in the octagon to collide with Holloway in the UFC 329 main event on Saturday night at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. This marks a rematch that has been 13 years in the making, since McGregor handed Holloway a one-sided unanimous decision in their initial meeting back in 2013, when both were featherweights just beginning their UFC journeys. The upcoming bout will now take place at welterweight, adding a new dynamic to this long-awaited showdown.
In addition to the main event, UFC 329 features a pivotal lightweight contest serving as the co-main event.
