McGregor and Poirier will have a 3rd encounter to determine the final winner at UFC 264 on July 11 in Vietnam. Earlier, the couple had a first clash in a Featherweight weight battle at UFC 178, and the Irish fighter McGregor won his opponent with a knock-out right in the opening half. Then, the fighter nicknamed 'The Diamond' balanced the score 1-1 in the rematch earlier this year at UFC 257 with the victory of TKO Conor McGregor in the second half of the match.
Only a dozen days left until the Trilogy battle was the world's expectation, and it seemed that McGregor was dealing with staphylococcal infections around his left elbow after many fans discovered an incredible thing in his photo.
It is worth noting that Conor McGregor has not confirmed this issue and many fans hope that it is just a scratch or a little injury during McGregor's crazy training for the Trilogy battle.
If McGregor is really infected with staph infection in the arm, this not only disadvantages McGregor's ability to play but also directly affects the results of the match.
It is expected that the winner in the match McGregor vs Poirier 3 will be the next challenge of UFC's Lightweight Championship title with the new champion champion Charles Oliveira.
The fighter nicknamed 'Do Bronx' Charles Oliveira won the Lightweight Championship title with an impressive TKO victory in the second half against the champion Bellator, Michael Chandler at UFC 262 in May.
