Conor McGregor<\/a> shared fresh training footage, fueling rumors that he will headline UFC 329 on July 11, 2026, at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n The 37-year-old Irishman is being linked with a headline card on International Fight Week, with a rematch against Max Holloway. While a clash with Michael Chandler was the narrative, the landscape has shifted. Holloway wants to avenge the loss against the man who defeated him via a decision back in 2013. <\/p>\n Any bout is expected to take place at Welterweight (170 lbs). This allows McGregor to maintain the massive frame he developed during his three-year rehabilitation following his broken leg. McGregor\u2019s latest posts show \u201cThe Notorious\u201d in high-intensity sparring sessions.<\/p>\n Will He Return Better?<\/p>\n McGregor\u2019s move to 170 lbs for a possible Holloway rematch could be a masterstroke. The weight cuts to 145 or 155 lbs often compromised his \u201cchin\u201d and his late-round gas tank. By competing at welterweight, McGregor would keep the massive muscular frame he built during his three-year rehabilitation.<\/p>\n This means the version of Conor would likely possess significantly higher \u201cone-shot\u201d stopping power and a much higher threshold for taking punishment\u2014critical factors for a veteran fighter facing a high-volume pressure striker like Max. While Chandler is a chaotic wrestler who forces a high-paced \u201cscramble,\u201d Holloway is a pure striker who will meet Conor in the pocket. This allows McGregor to revert to his primary identity: the elite counter-striker.<\/p>\n Find all the\u00a0latest boxing news<\/a>\u00a0and MMA breaking updates on\u00a0boxingnews.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING boxingnews.COM<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"X: @TheNotoriousMMA
