You’re right Connie, karma is a mirror.
Former UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor, who also held gold at 145 pounds, returned to the Octagon after a five-year absence atop the UFC 329 fight card last Sat. night (July 11, 2026) from inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, his first MMA fight since breaking his leg against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 back in summer 2021.
Max Holloway won the fight, but McGregor is the one who did most of the damage.
Their welterweight main event was over in just 69 seconds, thanks to a self-inflicted knee injury suffered by McGregor. Unfortunately, it happens at this level of competition. Tom Aspinall suffered a similar injury against Curtis Blaydes at UFC London and Patrick Cote blew out his knee against Anderson Silva at UFC 90.
That said, McGregor is held to a different standard.
