Well, that was fast. Conor McGregor's much anticipated comeback lasted about one minute after a leg injury stopped the fight.

The former UFC featherweight champ went toe-to-toe with Max Holloway after a five-year hiatus at the UFC 329 main event in Las Vegas on Saturday night.

Right from the get-go, Conor was having major issues, jumping into the air to give a roundhouse kick, but he fell to the floor. He popped back up and tried the kick again, but only got the same results.

Conor McGregor ain't the only one buyin' Mick's "women weaken legs" motto ... 'cause boxing star Rolly Romero says he too has sworn off gettin' busy in the bedroom!

"I haven't had sex since June 4, 2025. Over a year. I gave up sex til marriage. My body reserved for my wife, that the Lord Jesus will deliver to me. I gave it up completely til marriage," RR told us at an event in Los Angeles this week.

Of course, McGregor shocked fans this week when he said he not only hasn't knocked boots, but he's sworn off any sexual touching completely in preparation for his fight against Max Holloway.

Cristiano Ronaldo just made IShowSpeed's year -- and maybe his whole life -- 'cause the soccer superstar gifted the popular streamer and diehard CR7 fanatic a pair of his game-worn FIFA World Cup cleats!!

The incredible moment went down on Speed's stream during the Spain vs. Belgium quarterfinal on Friday ... which Ronaldo and Portugal would have played in if they had won this past Monday.

Of course, they were booted in the Round of 16, and Speed was deeply emotional after Ronaldo's final World Cup match of his international career ... but this gesture certainly had to have lifted his spirits.

Tyler Perry and Colin Kaepernick are stepping up to cover two huge expenses for Nolan Wells' family ... the funeral and an independent autopsy.

Attorney Ben Crump, who is representing Nolan's family, says Tyler is paying for the funeral and Colin is paying for the autopsy ... and at a Friday press conference, he thanked the celebs for their contributions.

Crump says the family requested an independent autopsy because they lack confidence in the ongoing investigation in Mississippi.

We spoke with Tyler Perry's team ... who confirmed he's paying for the funeral.

We reported the pair had to pay $60K for a city permit to close down the streets around Madison Square Garden on her wedding day ... so it seems they threw down another $100K to pay for police.

Michael Rubin's White Party was great ... but how about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding?? Well, don't ask him ... 'cause the Fanatics honcho tells TMZ Sports he wasn't invited.

Reports swirled that he moved his shindig forward a few days so folks didn't have to choose between that and the Tayvis wedding at Madison Square Garden ... put TMZ exclusively reported that he actually moved it up because he thought the UFC 250 White House event was going to be on Independence Day -- since that was the original plan.

Shaun White was spotted spending time with a mystery blonde in West Hollywood this week ... though the woman isn't his reported girlfriend, Angela Garten.

A woman invited to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding was seeing "Red" when her music producer husband told her he deleted the invitation ... all because he thought it was spam!

As you can imagine, Garret's wife, Melissa, was LIVID ... and she laid it all out in an essay for HuffPost.

When she asked her husband why he would delete an invite to Taylor's big wedding, he told her ... "I got a text but I thought it was spam ... Remember I told you I got a text from her manager? But I didn't respond to it. It didn't sound like him."
