Conor McGregor Reveals Date for Final Fight on Current UFC Contract

McGregor said the UFC did not seek an extension, leaving him one fight from free agency and possible bouts with Terence Crawford or Jake Paul.

  • On July 11, Ultimate Fighting Championship star Conor McGregor will headline UFC 329 in Las Vegas against Max Holloway, marking his first competition in five years.
  • McGregor confirmed the Holloway bout and a second fight in April 2027 are the final two fights on his current contract, saying "We met in the middle" on compensation.
  • The 37-year-old Irishman has not fought since suffering a broken leg in a 2021 TKO loss to Dustin Poirier, sidelining him for five years.
  • Most Valuable Promotions co-founder Nakisa Bidarian stated last month that his organization will pursue McGregor if he hits the open market after his contract expires.
  • Bidarian expressed interest in pairing McGregor with Jake Paul or Nate Diaz for future events once his UFC tenure concludes in April 2027.
