UFC 329 Preview: McGregor vs Holloway -Can Max Extend His Striking Advantage?
UFC 329 is shaping up to be an interesting card, with Conor McGregor vs. Max Holloway drawing much of the attention.
McGregor brings championship experience, knockout power and one of the most recognizable names in MMA. Holloway, meanwhile, has built his reputation around volume striking, durability and an ability to maintain a relentless pace throughout a fight.
The matchup raises an interesting question: will McGregor's power and timing be enough to overcome Holloway's pressure and striking volume?
The rest of the card also has some intriguing matchups, including:
Benoit Saint-Denis vs. Paddy Pimblett
Cory Sandhagen vs. Mario Bautista
Brandon Royval vs. Lone'er Kavanagh
King Green vs. Terrance McKinney
For me, the biggest factor in the main event is whether Holloway can force McGregor into a high-volume fight. If the fight stays at long range and McGregor finds his timing early, things could get very interesting.
Who are you picking in McGregor vs. Holloway — and how do you see the fight ending?
