Appearing at the UFC 257 press conference at Etihad Arena, Conor McGregor made many audiences startled.
Still elegant suit, still welcoming, but the Irish superstar has not been aggressive nor “slashing the wind” before the match as we often see when McGregor has appeared over the years.
Faced with McGregor, Dustin Poirier is also very calm – Instead of taking care of the opponent, Poirier discusses with Conor about the Whiskey Proper No.. Twelve, and chili sauce products produced by Poirier.
The launch of the Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier pair is clearly very calm, but that does not mean that the rematch will not be tense. The two of them almost rushed into each other during the time of taking photos of Face-off.
Dustin Poirier opened his words: “You know what will happen on the stage.”
In response, Conor McGregor pushed the glass and said, “Yes, the game has started. Both me and you, we know what will happen.”
UFC 257 is the second time Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier clashed. The two met each other at UFC 178 in 2014, when they were still the promising young punches of the Featherweight UFC. Conor McGregor only takes less than 2 minutes to defeat the knock-out Poirier at that match.
