For the first time in five years, legendary UFC athlete Conor McGregor will return to the Octagon against Max Holloway.
UFC 329: McGregor vs. Holloway will be a rematch of a 2013 fight between the two athletes, which saw Conor McGregor defeat Max Holloway by unanimous decision. Since that fight, McGregor exploded as a mainstream celebrity and Holloway blossomed into a consistently dangerous opponent for over a decade.
With millions of eyes expected to be on this matchup, both fighters will expect to earn a massive sum by just stepping into the Octagon.
Here's a look at how much each man is expected to make on Saturday night.
McGregor & Holloway's Fight Purse
The exact fight purse and salary numbers are not officially confirmed, but it must be a lot of money to get McGregor to appear for the first time since 2021.
It is reported that Conor McGregor will make roughly $15 million in base salary in addition to bonuses.
Max Holloway is expected to earn significantly less than McGregor. Holloway's base salary for the fight is reported to be closer to $3 million, which is in line with his typical fight earnings.
McGregor has only taken part in four MMA fights since 2016. However, each fight brought a bigger payday. The most Conor McGregor ever made from a UFC fight was roughly $50 million before he even stepped into the Octagon against Khabib Nurmagomedov in 2018.
