Las Vegas, Nevada – Conor McGregor is still the biggest name in mixed martial arts. He is also, somehow, the long shot.
That is what makes his return so fascinating. The most famous fighter in UFC history is coming back to the Octagon on July 11th at UFC 329 in Las Vegas against Max Holloway, a familiar opponent from another era of his career. The matchup is loaded with nostalgia, money, risk, and uncertainty. It is not just McGregor returning after nearly five years away from competition. It is McGregor returning with a new deal, a dangerous opponent, and something he rarely carried during his rise to superstardom: genuine underdog status.
