UFC 329 Complete Guide: McGregor vs Holloway 2, Full Fight Card, Start Time and How to Watch

UFC 329

UFC 329 takes place on Saturday, July 11, 2026, at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The event is headlined by Conor McGregor vs. Max Holloway 2, a welterweight rematch more than a decade after their first meeting in 2013. McGregor won that fight by unanimous decision, but Holloway has since become one of the most accomplished fighters of his generation.

The co-main event features a major lightweight clash between Paddy Pimblett and Benoit Saint-Denis. Pimblett is looking to bounce back after his loss to Justin Gaethje, while Saint-Denis enters the matchup with a chance to push himself closer to the top of the 155-pound division.

UFC 329 Main Event: Conor McGregor vs Max Holloway 2

Conor McGregor and Max Holloway first fought in 2013. McGregor won by unanimous decision, but the rematch arrives under very different circumstances.

McGregor is returning after a long layoff and will be fighting at welterweight. His main weapons remain timing, counter-striking, pressure, and his left hand. If he is going to take control of the fight, the early rounds are likely to be his most important window.

Holloway brings activity, pace, durability, and volume. He has built his career on extending fights, forcing opponents into uncomfortable exchanges, and increasing his output as the rounds progress.

The main question is simple. Can McGregor hurt Holloway early, or can Holloway drag him into a pace-heavy fight over five rounds?

UFC 329 Co-Main Event: Paddy Pimblett vs Benoit Saint-Denis

Paddy Pimblett vs Benoit Saint-Denis is one of the most important lightweight fights on the card.

Pimblett enters the fight needing a major response after his defeat to Justin Gaethje. A win over Saint-Denis would be the biggest victory of his UFC career and would move him back toward the lightweight title picture.

Saint-Denis brings pressure, grappling, physicality, and a finishing threat. He is one of the more dangerous tests available for Pimblett at this stage of his career.

The winner will be in position for a major lightweight matchup next.
