    Conor McGregor Return Confirmed — Adesanya Faces Career Crossroads in Seattle

    Conor McGregor confirms his UFC return for July 11 at International Fight Week — and the Ringside Report MMA crew is not buying the hype.

Max Holloway is the frontrunner opponent, and Fred says it plainly: “Max is gonna kill him.” ► UFC Seattle Preview: Israel Adesanya (-150) vs Joe Pyfer (+120) in a crossroads main event. Adesanya has lost three straight and is talking retirement. Pyfer is 29 with nine knockouts. The hosts split on the pick. ► Co-Main: Maycee Barber (-200) vs former champion Alexa Grasso (+150). Both hosts pick Barber. Grasso’s career is on the line. ► Chiesa at -850: The absurd line of the week gets the roast it deserves. ► MVP Netflix Card: Junior dos Santos, Muhammad Mokaev, and more added. The Netflix-as-secondary-MMA-promotion angle is quietly changing fighter leverage. ► UFC 327: Procházka vs Ulberg for the vacant light heavyweight title after Pereira vacated to chase heavyweight history. ► Pereira vs Gane: Can “Poatan” become the first three-division champion in UFC history? ► Parlay Picks: Dave locks in Pyfer + Barber (+230).
