Conor McGregor Arrives in Las Vegas, Puts an End to UFC 329 Speculation

The Irish superstar has officially checked in for fight week, confirming that everything is on track ahead of his highly anticipated rematch with Max Holloway.

Conor McGregor has put an end to all speculation surrounding his participation at UFC 329 after officially checking in for fight week in Las Vegas on Tuesday.

McGregor (22-6) arrived at T-Mobile Arena slightly later than expected but completed all of the required pre-fight obligations ahead of his long-awaited return to the Octagon. This Saturday, the Irishman will face Max Holloway (27-9) in the main event of UFC 329, a rematch of their 2013 meeting, which McGregor won by unanimous decision. This time, the bout will take place in the welterweight division.

Upon arriving at the arena, McGregor was accompanied by a large entourage from his team. He took time to sign autographs for fans and gave interviews to TNT Sports, ESPN, Sportsnet, and RNC before leaving the venue.

Over the past several days, speculation about the former two-division champion's status intensified after he did not appear in the first two episodes of UFC's Embedded fight-week series. His delayed arrival in Las Vegas only fueled the rumors, but his official check-in has now confirmed that there has been no change to the plans for Saturday's main event.

McGregor's next official appearance will come on Wednesday during the UFC 329 Media Day, where he and Holloway will face off for the first time during fight week ahead of their blockbuster showdown on July 12.
