SportOther SportsUFCConor McGregor will make his return to the UFC tonight when he takes on Max Holloway in the main event at UFC 32905:43, 11 Jul 2026Updated 05:43, 11 Jul 2026Conor McGregor promised to put on a show as he and Max Holloway faced off for the final time.‌The Irishman will compete for the first time in five years on Saturday night when he takes on Holloway in a rematch of their 2013 clash. On that occasion, McGregor outpointed his rival despite tearing ligaments in his knee during the bout. And after weighing in on Friday, he promised to an even better performance.‌"It's great to be back," he said. "Thank you to all the fans in attendance. I hope you're ready for a blockbuster tomorrow night. The Mac is bringing it." McGregor has not fought since he broke his leg in the first round of his trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier in 2021 and has endured a string of controversies since his last outing.‌But earlier this week, he promised to bring back the glory days which saw him win featherweight and lightweight world titles. "I can destroy Max inside 10 seconds," he said. "I have knockouts inside three seconds on my fighting record.‌"I have Hall of Fame fighters, multiple Hall of Fame UFC fighters defeated and destroyed both together and under a minute, and I can add Max to that. However, don't get it twisted. If we go into deep waters, Max is going to be in a lot of trouble, he will be badly concussed."Holloway, meanwhile, will be making his welterweight debut having been dominated by Charles Oliveira earlier this year at lightweight. And he too promised to deliver a performance to remember."I'm too ferocious, I'm too relentless," he said. "If this guy is a missile, I'm a f***ing nuke; I'll see you tomorrow night."Article continues belowWatch UFC 329: McGregor vs Holloway 2 exclusively live on TNT Sports Box Office via HBO Max, EE TV, Virgin Media TV, Prime Video and Sky.
