Immediately after UFC 257, Conor McGregor hoped to rematch the 3rd Poirier. Nate Diaz, who was almost upper radio with Poirier at UFC 230 in 2018, ragged his name.
Michael Chandler, along with Charles Oliveira, the brand new candidates for the championship, are hoping that Khabib Nurmagomedov removed the belt so they could confront Dustin Poirier in the championship match. Even Tony Ferguson recently “also” that Poirier has dodged “El Cucuy” before coming to the position today.
Faced with all these challenges, Dustin Poirier said he was feeling very excited. Poirier also said that if UFC wanted to throw such a hurry, he could even “give” Charles Oliveira and Michael Chandler first. Either way, no matter who won, that person could not be considered a true champion when he had not defeated Poirier.
“I am both the former Interim champion, just defeated the Knock-out Conor McGregor, and at the No. 1 position on the rankings, and the only person ranked on me, Khabib Nurmagomedov, may never return to the stage again,” Poirier commented. “Everyone wants to climb to the top, but want that, they have to defeat the boxers standing above them.”
