How to watch UFC 329: McGregor vs Holloway 2 live streams, no PPV | Daily Reports Online
Expect a fast and furious start to UFC 329’s headline act this Saturday, as Conor McGregor looks to overcome five years of professional inactivity marked by a long and shameful list of misdemeanours, and beat Max Holloway on his comeback.
“Blessed” lost their only previous encounter way back in 2013, but the former featherweight and BMF champion has fought eight times since “Notorious” last set foot in the Octagon. On five of those occasions, a belt was on the line.
McGregor was 24 and Holloway 21 on that night. 13 years later, it’s safe to say that much has changed. McGregor, now 37, went on to conquer the featherwright and lightweight divisions, becoming the UFC’s biggest star in the process. It earned him a mind-bogglingly lucrative fight with Floyd Mayweather, and everything has gone rapidly downhill ever since. Holloway, meanwhile, has been a virtual ever-present on the UFC circuit.
However, what McGregor lacks in fitness he might well make up for with sheer brute physicality. He has five fights under his belt at welterweight, which is five more than Holloway, who was at his fighting best at featherweight – two weight classes down.
This week, he’s spoken of wanting to put on a show by prolonging the action. McGregor, however, knows that his best chance of victory comes from hitting Holloway as hard as possible straight out of the gates.
Here’s where to watch UFC 329 live streams online and from anywhere with a VPN – including a clever way to watch UFC 329 for just $1.
How to watch UFC 329 live stream in the US
Exclusive US coverage of the full UFC 329 event is on Paramount Plus. It’s being headlined by Conor McGregor vs Max Holloway 2, which is expected to start at around 11pm ET / 8pm PT.
Plans start from only $8.99/month with the Paramount Plus Essential Plan, or you can upgrade to Premium for $13.99/month (see below for more details). You can also get a Paramount Plus trial with Walmart+ for $1 using this sneaky trick we found.
While Paramount Plus will show UFC 329 in its entirety, you can also watch the Early Prelims via UFC Fight Pass.
Traveling outside of the US? Use a VPN to watch Paramount Plus from abroad while you’re away from home.
Use a VPN to watch UFC 329 from anywhere
A VPN is a handy piece of software that can make your device appear as if it’s back in your home country, thereby letting you unlock your usual streaming services. The best VPN right now? We recommend NordVPN – it does everything and comes with a 76% discount.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple:
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we’ve said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you’re visiting the UK and want to view your usual US service, you’d select a United States server from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to your usual local streaming service and watch the UFC.

Not quite. Other than the sneaky little Walmart+ for $1 trick described above in the US, there doesn’t seem to be any way to watch UFC 329 for free. It’s on Paramount Plus in the US, which no longer carries a free trial. And it’s a PPV in many other countries around the world.
