The return of Conor McGregor did not go as planned in the main event of UFC 329 at T-Mobile Arena on Saturday night, with a knee injury prematurely ending the former two-division champ’s comeback attempt against Max Holloway.
Just seconds into the bout, McGregor attempted a leaping kick which appeared to compromise his knee, and the bout was stopped less than a minute later.
McGregor exited the cage without speaking to Joe Rogan, but the cameras followed him down the tunnel and backstage.
