Conor McGregor's highly anticipated return to the octagon lasted just over a minute on Saturday night.

The former UFC featherweight champion faced Max Holloway in the main event of UFC 329 in Las Vegas.

McGregor struggled early, falling to the canvas multiple times after attempting kicks.

He grabbed his right leg in pain following a punch exchange, prompting the referee to stop the fight at 1:09 of the first round.

UFC broadcaster Megan Olivi described the injury as a "right internal knee injury." Holloway was awarded a technical knockout victory.

The fight was McGregor's first in five years, following a fractured left leg suffered in a 2021 bout.
