Concerns raised over UFC 329 main card strength beyond McGregor

The UFC 329 main card for International Fight Week has drawn criticism for lacking star power beyond Conor McGregor's return. The analyst notes that while McGregor's presence usually compensated for weaker cards, the current situation is different given his unreliability, referencing the Chandler situation from two years ago when a similarly weak card had to quickly add a Pereira-Prochazka rematch. The post questions what would headline if McGregor withdraws, suggesting Holloway-Pimblett as the alternative. The author expresses continued belief that McGregor is serious about his return but recommends UFC add insurance by including another major fight, suggesting Oliveira vs Tsarukyan potentially for the BMF belt. The concern is that without proper backup plans, the International Fight Week card could disappoint.
