Duncan went on to win by unanimous decision 30-27 across the board. Boos rained down on Dean for the rest of the night.

Khabib Nurmagomedov says Islam Makhachev’s fight against Ian Machado Garry will be a difficult challenge. He believes Ian’s style makes him a very uncomfortable opponent and expects a tough matchup for Islam. "lan is a stylistically very uncomfortable opponent. He moves a lot and strikes from long range. He's 193 cm tall with long arms and long kicks. We'll have to chase him, close the distance, grab him, tie him up, and take him down. Islam is almost 35. Overall, the stylistic matchup and his age make this a difficult fight."

UFC 329 is officially in the books. Conor McGregor walked away with $30 million, which comes out to around $435,000 per second. During those 69 seconds inside the Octagon, he landed zero significant strikes. Of course, Conor’s impact on the organization is undeniable, and the UFC clearly knew his value and made sure it paid off. Max Holloway also had some easy money — $3 million without cutting weight or taking a single punch. Not a bad night at the office. And then there was Paddy Pimblett, who put on a solid performance and finished BSD in just over a minute.

Conor McGregor and Max Holloway delivered one of the most heated exchanges of UFC 329 fight week during their press conference. McGregor confidently declared, “I can destroy Max inside 10 seconds. If we go into these deep waters, Max is going to be in a lot of trouble.” Holloway immediately fired back, asking, “What happened the first time?” McGregor didn’t hesitate with his response: “You were left in a wheelchair. That’s what happened the first time. I wheeled your little bum ass out of that Octagon.” The fiery back-and-forth instantly went viral, with fans calling it a throwback to McGregor’s prime trash-talking days. Their rivalry has intensified ahead of the long-awaited rematch, 13 years after McGregor defeated Holloway by unanimous decision in their first UFC meeting.

The Conor McGregor effect 🤩

odds are final!

Used to pray for times like this.

Jon Anik reveals Max Holloway told him years ago that he would fight at middleweight before retiring 😳 "Max Holloway said to me, probably 8 or 9 years ago, that he was going to take a UFC fight at middleweight before all was said and done." 8-9 years ago Holloway was the featherweight champion cutting to 145 lbs. Now he's making his welterweight debut against McGregor on July 11. And apparently middleweight was always part of the plan. Featherweight. Lightweight. Welterweight. And now a middleweight fight before he hangs it up. Holloway has been planning this climb for nearly a decade. Nobody knew until now 👀

👀 Kamaru Usman reveals he tried to get the Islam Makhachev fight for a while, but believes negotiations between Topuria and Makhachev slowed things down He eventually took the Du Plessis fight as he believes it gets him towards a title “We all know the fight that I wanted [Islam], I wanted that fight. I think there was just a lot of back and forth stuff being done and now we hear all the stories of potentially they were tryna make Ilia vs Islam, and all of these things, and I wanted the Islam fight. So all of these things behind th scenes kinda dragged it on and dragged it on. Then DDP was mentioned… and I just need something that gets me to the title.”

Paulo Costa wants a fight

Jon Jones says Alex Pereira was too big for his fight against Ciryl Gane at the White House 😬 "I think he would have been better off fighting around 230-235 lbs, keeping that speed. I feel like his power would have possibly translated over." Pereira weighed 251 lbs. 3 lbs heavier than Gane. Jones thinks he sacrificed his speed advantage by carrying too much mass. The same speed that made him a KO machine at 185 and 205 wasn't there at 251.

Jon Jones picked Arman Tsarukyan to beat Ilia Topuria. Arman's response was perfect 😂 Jones: "You already know, Arman beats Topuria all day. All day." Arman: "If you said Topuria, brother, we gotta wrestle." Jones laughed, squared up like they were about to wrestle on the spot, and the two posed for photos. But here's the real story: Daniel Cormier backed Arman on the same day. "It has to be Arman. There's no way that it cannot be Arman. I believe people are now ready to watch Arman fight for the belt, and rightfully so." Jones and DC haven't agreed on anything in 15 years. They agree on this. Two heavyweight GOATs who can't stand each other both independently picked the same man to be next for the lightweight title. 6-0 in RAF wrestling. Won $5.7 million betting on Gaethje. Beat Tony Ferguson by 10-0 tech fall. And now the two greatest heavyweights in UFC history are publicly campaigning for him 😳
