Conor McGregor (22-6 MMA) will be competing for the first time since July of 2021, where he suffered a first-round TKO loss at the hands of longtime rival Dustin Poirier. The Irish star earned his most recent victory at UFC 246 in January of 2020, when he defeated Donald Cerrone via first-round TKO.

Meanwhile, Max Holloway (27-9 MMA) will enter tonight's contest looking to rebound, this after losing his BMF title to Charles Oliveira in his most recent effort this past March at UFC 326. Prior to that setback, ‘Blessed' was coming off a unanimous decision victory over Dustin Poirier.

UFC 329 is co-headlined by a highly anticipated lightweight bout between Paddy Pimblett and Benoit Saint Denis.

Pimblett (23-4 MMA) will be returning to action for the first time since suffering a tough loss to Justin Gaethje in a fight for the promotion‘s interim lightweight title this past January at UFC 324. Prior to that setback, ‘The Baddy' had strung together nine straight victories, which included stoppage wins over Michael Chandler and King Green.

Meanwhile, Benoit Saint Denis (17-3 MMA) will enter tonight's co-main event on a four-fight winning streak, with his most recent victory coming by way of TKO over Dan Hooker this past February at UFC 325. ‘God of War' has finished all four of his most recent opponents, earning 2 submissions and 2 KO's during that stretch.

Also featured on tonight's UFC 329 main card lineup is a key men's bantamweight contest between Cory Sandhagen and Mario Bautista.

Sandhagen (18-6 MMA) most previously took to the Octagon at UFC 320, where he suffered a unanimous decision loss to Merab Dvalishvili for the promotion's bantamweight title. Prior to that setback, ‘The Sandman' had defeated former flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo via TKO.

Meanwhile, Mario Bautista (17-3 MMA) was last seen in action this past February, where he scored a submission win over Vinicius Oliveira. Prior to that triumph, the 33-year-old as coming off a decision loss to Umar Nurmagomedov.

If that wasn't enough to get you interested, the UFC 329 main card lineup is kicked off by a highly anticipated lightweight bout between King Green and Terrance McKinney.

Green (35-17-1 MMA) will enter the contest sporting a three-fight winning streak, with his most recent Octagon victory coming over Jeremy Stephens by submission this past May at UFC 328. The longtime veteran has gone 3-2 over his past five fights overall.

Meanwhile, Terrance McKinney (18-8 MMA) will be returning to action for the first time scoring a 24-second TKO victory over Kyle Nelson this past March. ‘T Wrecks' has gone 3-1 over his past four bouts, earning first-round stoppages in all three of those wins.

MMA fighter Jindrich Janecka resuscitated after cardiac arrest in cage

Jindrich Janecka went into
cardiac arrest during his bout against Tomas
Skalicky at Cage Game 2, according to Oktagon
MMA chief medic Norbert Bidrman.

Janecka appeared hurt after a kick to the body and was later
knocked out by a punch. The bout took place under Oktagon MMA's
stand-and-bang rules, which prohibit ground fighting.

Oktagon MMA chief medic describes CPR, defibrillation and
Janecka regaining consciousness at Cage Game 2

Bidrman said the medical team performed CPR, delivered a shock and
administered oxygen. Janecka regained consciousness in the cage and
was able to speak with the team before an ambulance took him to the
hospital. Bidrman said a blow to the chest may have triggered an
abnormal heart rhythm, but the cause had not been confirmed.

“I'm the head medic here at Oktagon. We just had a very emergency
situation here, where one of the fighters, specifically Jindra,
went into a sudden cardiac arrest. After some cardiopulmonary
resuscitation, we delivered a shock. He was given oxygen and
brought back to life. He is fully oriented to place, time, and
person. And BRNO, the ambulance service, whom we greatly thank for
arriving on time, has taken him over, and he is now already at the
hospital. Jindra, I want to repeat, was already fully conscious in
the cage. He was communicating with us. And now we just want to
find the cause of why this happened. Most likely this could have
been some kind of arrhythmia caused by a blow to the chest that he
received earlier,†Bidrman said in a statement shared on X.

The UFC heads to Madison Square Garden in New York City, New York, for UFC 334. In the co-main event, Kayla Harrison defends her women's bantamweight title against Amanda Nunes. Heading into the bout, Harrison is a -196 favorite while the former champ is a +152 underdog on FanDuel.

Ahead of the bout at UFC 334, BJPENN.com reached out to several pro fighters to get their predictions for the women's bantamweight title fight. The pros believe Nunes will upset Harrison in her return and reclaim the bantamweight title.

BJPENN.com Fighter Picks Kayla Harrison vs. Amanda Nunes:

Julian Erosa, UFC featherweight: I think Nunes. She has less muscle than Harrison, and muscle takes oxygen, and I think Nunes wins in the later rounds.

Dustin Jacoby, UFC light heavyweight: This is a good fight. Amanda is coming back, so there are some questions, and she has the knockout power. But, I do think Kayla will get the win with her wrestling.

Gillian Robertson, UFC strawweight: Amanda. I've trained with and known her for a long time, so I might be bias. But I do think she is the greatest woman in combat sports, and I think Amanda won't be scared of Kayla's judo and will be aggressive on the feet with her striking.

Mario Bautista, UFC bantamweight: I think Amanda Nunes gets the win. Kayla cuts a lot of weight, and I do worry about that with how hard Amanda hits.

Modestas Bukauskas, UFC light heavyweight: A very tough fight to pick. Kayla has been great in the UFC, but I can never pick against Amanda. Although she does have a layoff, I think she wins.

Terrance McKinney, UFC lightweight: I think Kayla Harrison wins. She will be able to take Amanda down, and Nunes will get tired as we have seen in the past. Kayla defends her belt.

Kayla Harrison’s coach downplays past experience with Amanda Nunes playing any real part in UFC 334 fight

Kayla Harrison’s coach downplays past experience with Amanda Nunes playing any real part in UFC 334 fight  

As Kayla Harrison prepares to face Amanda Nunes in the UFC 334 co-main event, a lot of the focus for the fight is going to center around them previously training together at American Top Team and even sharing the same coaches at times.

But Mike Brown, who previously coached Nunes and has served as Harrison's head coach since the first day she stepped foot in the gym, says that narrative is really being blown out of proportion. While Brown knows that Harrison and Nunes crossed paths from time to time, they were never that close long before they were scheduled to compete for the women's bantamweight championship.

“It's a big gym,†Brown told MMA Fighting. “There's a lot of training partners. They weren't training partners that often. Very seldom.â€

Of course, Brown gets pulled into that conversation a lot because he did coach both fighters but even that doesn't really cause a conflict of interest. At least in his book.

“I have a job,†Brown explained. “I work for Kayla and I work for ATT. That's my job. I trained with Amanda, but I was never her official head coach. But I did work with her for a handful of fights.

“But this is business. It's a big fight, and they're both going to make a bunch of money and everyone is in a good situation.â€

Now Brown obviously has an intimate knowledge about the good, the bad and the ugly working with both fighters but even that doesn't necessarily serve as an advantage.

Nunes left American Top Team, and effectively started her own gym, and that's continued as she prepares for her comeback from retirement. But Brown knows that Harrison and Nunes both have enough footage out there that the strategy come Saturday night isn't going to be some revolutionary change from what each has done in the past.

“I think they both each other's strengths and weaknesses,†Brown said. “Amanda's a big power puncher and everyone knows that. Kayla is a world class grappler and a multiple world champion, a world champion in judo, so there's no secrets in what each fighter's going to want to do.

“I don't think you would have had to coach them to figure that out. I think everyone knows what everyone wants to do here. It comes down to who can implement their game plan.â€

Since the day she started in the sport, Harrison has long talked about defining her legacy by becoming the greatest of all-time.

With two Olympic gold medals in judo along with a UFC championship and several PFL championships, Harrison could already make a compelling argument as the greatest combat sports athlete in history.

That said, Brown acknowledges that Nunes' accolades are undeniable and adding that win to her resume should help separate Harrison from any past competition when it comes to that greatest of all-time conversation.

“I believe so just because of her track record,†Brown said about Harrison. “Her near perfect record. Amanda's beaten every champion I believe at 135 except for Kayla. She's beat every champ that's ever been at the weight. That's pretty damn impressive except for Kayla. Obviously, she's done more in the sport than Kayla, but Kayla's record is near perfect. One blemish with [Larissa] Pacheco in their third fight. She had beat her twice before that.

“She's clearly head and shoulders above the competition. She also has a very high finish rate I would consider her the greatest of all-time if she wins this fight.â€
