Outside of a 170-pound Nate Diaz and a reserved Max Holloway, nobody has withstood the power of current Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) featherweight king Conor McGregor inside of the Octagon. That includes No. 9 ranked lightweight Dustin Poirier, who made a jump to 155 pounds after losing to "Notorious" at UFC 178 via first-round knockout.
According to Poirier, who takes on Michael Johnson later tonight (Sat., Sept. 17, 2016) at UFC Fight Night 94 live on FOX Sports 1 from State Farm Arena in Hidalgo, Texas, McGregor is the hardest puncher he has ever faced. That's quite the compliment, especially considering "The Diamond" has faced notable strikers like Chan Sung Jung, Bobby Green, Diego Brandao, Yancy Medeiros and Holloway.
