Dustin Poirier closes trilogy with stoppage win after Conor McGregor breaks his leg in UFC 264 main event

Dustin Poirier has two wins over Conor McGregor but he might need a third to officially put the Irishman behind him once and for all.

Following a dominant opening round in the UFC 264 main event where Poirier was blasting McGregor with punches and elbows on the ground it was actually a misstep on the feet just before the horn sounded that brought the fight to a painful end.

After the fighters both threw punches, McGregor stepped backwards and his leg just completely gave out with his ankle twisting underneath him as he crumbled to the mat.
