McGregor Still Feuding with Poirier Despite Long Absence

Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier's fighting rivalry is still hot, even though it's been three years since their last fight.

The Early Fights:

In their first fight way back in 2014, McGregor won with a knockout.
Before their rematch in early 2021, things were surprisingly friendly between them.

The Trilogy Turns Nasty:

By their third fight that summer, things had gotten nasty and have stayed that way.
McGregor lost the rematch by knockout.
Their fourth fight ended strangely when McGregor broke his leg early on, leaving fans wanting a clear winner.

Poirier's Next Fight and McGregor's Jabs:

Dustin Poirier is focused on his upcoming fight for the lightweight championship against Islam Makhachev.
To celebrate, the UFC is letting Poirier wear special fight shorts, not the usual ones.
McGregor, never one to miss a chance to jab, mocked Poirier's outfit on Twitter, comparing the shorts to feminine hygiene products.

McGregor's Prediction:

Despite their bad blood, McGregor doesn't like Poirier's opponent, Islam Makhachev, either (because Makhachev's teammate is Khabib Nurmagomedov, another McGregor rival).
McGregor predicts Makhachev will win quickly using wrestling skills and end Poirier's underdog story.
