Paddy Pimblett heads to UFC 329 co‑main event in Nevada

Paddy Pimblett Benoît Saint‑Denis UFC 329 lightweight bout Conor McGregor

The UFC’s July 12 event, UFC 329, will be staged at the T‑Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada. In the lightweight co‑main event, Britain’s Paddy Pimblett faces France’s Benoît Saint‑Denis. Pimblett, who suffered his first UFC loss to Justin Gaethje in January, looks to rebuild his standing, while Saint‑Denis arrives on a four‑fight winning streak, most recently defeating Dan Hooker by TKO.

Pimblett has said his ideal next fight would be against Conor McGregor, describing a bout with the Irish star as “the perfect fight” for his career. McGregor is headlining the card, returning after a five‑year hiatus to meet Max Holloway in a welterweight clash. The event will be broadcast live on TNT Sports Box Office.

Both fighters are seeking to enhance their rankings, with Pimblett hoping a win will set up a potential future showdown with McGregor and Saint‑Denis aiming for a championship opportunity.
