Conor McGregor is preparing to celebrate his 38th birthday by planning a return to the Octagon after suffering a right leg injury at UFC 329, which he said will require surgery.
“Surgery. Prehab. Return to martial arts practice. Go again.” McGregor wrote on Instagram on Monday. “Final fight of the contract. Praise God!”
McGregor (22-7) was attempting a comeback fight Saturday in Las Vegas but suffered an apparent knee injury seconds into the first round of a loss to Max Holloway. McGregor did not disclose the exact nature of his injury or provide a timeline for his possible return.
McGregor, who turns 38 Tuesday, said in a social media post after the fight that he was healthy entering the bout.
“My head gasket is gone. Destroyed,” he wrote. “I had no injury / injuries going into the fight. I was throwing kicks, planted and jumping, all throughout camp as well as backstage before the fight. This came out of nowhere. I am beyond dark here. I can only describe it as hell.”
Even with one fight remaining on his UFC contract, his future with the organization is unclear.
UFC appears to be on board with McGregor attempting another return and interest in his fight Saturday was considerable. CEO Dana White said he’s mulling over ideas for scheduling McGregor’s next fight and had “five ideas” for his opponent if he had beaten Holloway.
McGregor recovered from a torn ACL in 2013, which he injured in his first bout with Holloway, and broke his leg in a loss to Dustin Poirier in 2021.

PakarPBN
A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.
In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.
The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.
