Conor McGregor will make his long-awaited UFC return in Las Vegas on 11 July, when the Irish star is scheduled to face Max Holloway in a rematch at UFC 329 following an 18‑month anti‑doping ban. UFC president Dana White confirmed the lightweight–welterweight bout, which will headline the card at the T‑Mobile Arena.
Conor McGregor v Max Holloway is a match-up with deep roots in the modern history of mixed martial arts. McGregor, now 37, has not fought since shattering his leg against Dustin Poirier in July 2021, a grim injury that halted a career already losing momentum.
