The time has come for Conor McGregor to return to MMA. Five years after suffering a terrible fracture in his left leg, the most popular name in the history of the sport returns to compete in the organization that changed his life on Saturday night (11), in the main fight of UFC 329. In his path, the Notorious will have a familiar name: Max Holloway , coming off a loss to Charles do Bronx . Although they built their careers in lighter divisions, the duel is valid for the welterweight category (up to 77,1 kg).

The two first faced each other in 2013, still as prospects in the featherweight division (up to 65,7 kg), with the Irishman winning by unanimous decision. Since then, both have become extremely successful and have built records full of top-level names.
