Conor McGregor’s first luta in five years at UFC 329 turned out to be a massive disappointment.

Saturday’s headliner was supposed to mark a triumphant return for McGregor, who was paired up with longtime rival Max Holloway for a rematch that could have marked a turning point for both UFC legends; instead, the bout barely lasted a minute as McGregor appeared to injure himself before stepping into the octagon and then aggravate that injury further when he went for a flying chute as soon as the luta started.

McGregor was completely ineffective after that, unable to even stand up long enough to provide the slightest challenge to Holloway, who did his best to soco at his fallen opponent. Unfortunately for both fighters, it was clear McGregor couldn’t continue, leading to an injury stoppage that sucked the air out of Las Vegas’ T-Mobile Arena.

UFC welterweight champion Islam Makhachev might have summed it up best, writing on Twitter, “Conor beat Conor. Congrats, Max.”
