One month out from the event, the UFC has dropped the official poster for Conor McGregor\u2019s return fight against Max Holloway at UFC 329. <\/p>\n

Although much of the focus of the combat sports world is currently centered on Washington D.C. for Sunday\u2019s \u201cUFC Freedom 250\u201d event at The White House<\/a>, the biggest star in UFC history is slated to make his long-awaited return next month<\/a> in Las Vegas. <\/p>\n

Hardcore MMA fans know to not get too excited about a McGregor return until the Irishman actually makes it into the cage, but the hype for UFC 329 seems to be building significantly with just a few weeks to go until the event. <\/p>\n

Both surefire locks for the UFC Hall of Fame once both of their careers conclude, McGregor and Holloway first met in 2013 during the early part of their respective UFC runs. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe Notorious\u201d injured his knee during the early part of the fight before taking a unanimous decision over the 21-year-old Holloway, which marked the first and only time McGregor went the distance in a UFC fight until his rematch with Nate Diaz at UFC 202. <\/p>\n

What Should Fans Expect From McGregor in Return Fight at UFC 329?<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no doubt that both men are entirely different fighters now than they were in that first meeting, but the big question on the minds of most fans is how McGregor will look at UFC 329 following what has turned into a five-year layoff. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe Notorious\u201d last got his hand raised in 2020 when he stopped Donald \u201cCowboy\u201d Cerrone in 40 seconds at UFC 246. He returned the following year for back-to-back fights with Dustin Poirier but came up short on both occasions, and their trilogy bout at UFC 264 saw McGregor suffer a broken ankle that initially kicked off his lengthy absence from the cage. <\/p>\n

\"Max<\/p>\n

The soon-to-be 38-year-old was scheduled to return against his opposing The Ultimate Fighter coach Michael Chandler at UFC 303 but withdrew from the matchup with a broken toe. Holloway has competed eight times since McGregor\u2019s last fight, going 5-2 during a run that includes two attempts to reclaim the featherweight belt and three \u201cBMF\u201d title bouts<\/a>. <\/p>\n
