Conor McGregor walkout song at UFC 329 begins with The Foggy Dew and rolls into Hypnotize, the two-track entrance that has become his calling card. The timing gives UFC 329 a different kind of weight: McGregor is back in active competition for the first time in five years.
That return comes after a gruesome leg fracture in his trilogy bout against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 in July 2021, and it follows his last victory in January 2020, when he knocked out Donald Cerrone in 40 seconds. The music does more than fill the walk to the cage; it tells the crowd exactly which version of McGregor the promotion wants them to recognize at UFC 329.
The Foggy Dew to Hypnotize
The Foggy Dew, by the late Sinéad O'Connor and The Chieftains, opens the sequence before Hypnotize, by The Notorious B.I.G., takes over as he approaches the Octagon. That order is the point: one song sets the tone, the other sharpens it, and together they frame the entrance as a two-part identity statement rather than a simple playlist choice.
McGregor’s UFC record stands at 10-4, so the walkout lands with the authority of a fighter whose entrances have long carried as much attention as his fights. The medley matters because it gives UFC 329 a recognizable audio cue before the first exchange inside the cage.
UFC 329 at Las Vegas
UFC 329 takes place on Saturday, July 11, at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, and closes the UFC’s annual International Fight Week. The event also marks the promotion’s return to its regular stomping grounds in Sin City for the first time since UFC 326 in March.
Max Holloway arrives with a 23-9 promotional record, typically entering to Hawaiian Kickboxer by Moke Boy, while Benoit Saint-Denis brings a 9-3 UFC record and his steady walk to Le Chant des Commandos by NTM. Those details make UFC 329 feel like a card built around entrance identity as much as matchups.
Paddy Pimblett and the card
Paddy Pimblett comes in at 7-1 in the UFC, which helps explain why the event’s walkout rundown stretches beyond McGregor. The card is built to let each fighter’s entrance set a tone before the action starts, and McGregor’s medley remains the loudest version of that idea.
Whether McGregor uses the same The Foggy Dew-Hypnotize order at UFC 329 or shifts the arrangement is the only unresolved beat left around the entrance itself. For now, the music signals the same thing his record and layoff do: this is a return built to be noticed before a single punch lands.
