Conor McGregor always attracts attention, whether positive or negative. In the latest showdown in Las Vegas, he faced Dustin Poirier for the third time, likely marking the end of their rivalry. McGregor suffered a first-round doctor stoppage due to a broken leg. Poirier, who had been on the receiving end of taunting from McGregor, didn’t show any mercy and claimed he had McGregor in trouble before the injury occurred.
While Poirier considers the dispute settled, McGregor thinks otherwise. Whether they will have a rematch remains uncertain, and the fight may not have ended on the high note fans anticipated. However, the aftermath has delivered the drama fans love. Following UFC 264, Poirier is set to challenge Charles Oliveira for the lightweight title, while McGregor will focus on recovering and regrouping after a series of setbacks. In other fights that night, Gilbert Burns defeated Stephen Thompson in the co-main event, and Greg Hardy, a former NFL player, was knocked out in just over a minute by Tai Tuivasa.
