UFC 329 post-fight show: Reaction to Conor McGregor’s disastrous injury, Holloway and Pimblett wins

Conor McGregor’s return to the octagon after five years couldn’t have gone worse — he lost the fight in the first round, and suffered another horrific injury. Was the ending to the main event between McGregor and Max Holloway the biggest buzzkill result in UFC history?

Following Saturday night’s International Fight Week card, MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck and José Youngs react to the event as a whole, McGregor getting injured and losing the fight to Holloway, what “Blessed” gains from the victory, and how McGregor can try to make a second comeback after a bad leg injury. Additionally, they discuss Paddy Pimblett stealing the show with his quick submission win against Benoit Saint Denis in the co-main event, the many options in play for “The Baddy,” and more.
