UFC 329 fight card and latest betting odds

Main event: McGregor vs. Holloway 2

Conor McGregor made history as the first UFC fighter to reach “double-champ” status, holding both the featherweight and lightweight belts. However, he’s never made a title defense. Since winning the lightweight title in 2016 against Eddie Alvarez, McGregor has only won a single fight, against Donald Cerrone in 2020. He’s been out of action since breaking his leg against Dustin Poirier in 2021, most recently pulling out of a fight against Michael Chandler. The former double champ’s MMA record now stands at 22-6, with 10 wins and 4 losses in the UFC.

Holloway first faced McGregor in the UFC at just 21 years old, losing by unanimous decision. Following that loss, he went on an incredible 14-fight win streak in the featherweight division, including 5 title fights. More recently, Holloway has moved up to the lightweight division, with wins over Justin Gaethje and Dustin Poirier. However, he recently lost his BMF title to Charles Oliveira. He’s currently 27-9 in his professional MMA record.

Based on their recent activity, it’s no surprise to see that Holloway is the clear favourite in their rematch. McGregor hasn’t won a fight in 6 years, and likely won’t be the same after a serious leg break.

Co-main event: Pimblett vs. Saint-Denis

Paddy Pimblett has emerged as a fan favourite in recent years thanks to his personality and exciting fighting style. Until recently, he was undefeated in the UFC, with wins over Tony Ferguson, King Green and Michael Chandler. However, his last time in the cage saw him lose a brutal fight against Justin Gaethje. Overall, Pimblett has a high finish rate, with 3 submissions and 2 KO/TKO wins out of his 8 fights in the UFC. His MMA record now stands at 23-4, with 7 wins and 1 loss in the UFC.

Benoit Saint-Denis is another fighter renowned for finishing his fights. In fact, across his 12 UFC fights, he’s only gone the distance once, and that was in his debut. He’s got a record of 17-3, with 9 wins and 3 losses in the UFC. Of his 9 UFC wins, 5 have been by KO/TKO, while 4 have been by way of submission.

The UFC odds for this fight currently favour Benoit Saint-Denis, likely because he’s on a 4-fight win streak, while Pimblett is coming into this fight on the back of a bad loss. Saint-Denis also arguably has better wins on his record, while Pimblett’s best win is against Michael Chandler.
