The much-anticipated UFC 264 featuring the rubber match between Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier happens at the T-Mobile Arena on July 10, 2021. Both McGregor and Poirier have one win each in the rivalry so far and the scores will be settled once and for all when these two step into the cage again at UFC 264.

Conor McGregor vs. Dustin Poirier III Preview

No. 6 ranked men’s pound-for-pound fighter Poirier (27-6, 1 NC, fighting out of Coconut Creek, Fla.) plans to repeat his performance over McGregor from UFC 257 earlier this year and leave no doubt who the better fighter is. A member of the UFC roster for over 10 years, he has proven himself as one of the best in the world with wins over former UFC champions Max Holloway (twice), Eddie Alvarez, and Anthony Pettis. Poirier now looks to retain his spot at the top of the lightweight ranks and cement himself as the next in line for the belt.

No. 15 ranked men’s pound-for-pound fighter McGregor (22-5, fighting out of Dublin, Ireland) has his sights set on avenging his loss earlier this year by showing he is still one of the best in the world. Arguably the most popular UFC star in history, he rose to prominence with iconic knockouts of Jose Aldo, Eddie Alvarez and Chad Mendes. McGregor now aims to make a statement by delivering a vintage performance against Poirier.

Welterweight contest

Gilbert Burns and Stephen Thompson will be locking horns in a Welterweight contest on the event with a potential title shot against Kamaru Usman up for grabs. Sean O’Malley will be making his return to the octagon when he fights Louis Smolka when Irene Aldana will fight Yana Kunitskaya as well.
