A lot has changed for Dustin Poirier since his first meeting with Conor McGregor. It was directly after his loss to the Irish superstar in 2014 that he moved up to 155 pounds, where he became a force of nature in the lightweight division.
Since then, Poirier has amassed an impressive 10-2 record with one no-contest in his past 13 fights. He’s defeated three former UFC champions in Eddie Alvarez, Anthony Pettis and Max Holloway with the latter also earning him an interim lightweight title. Over his past six fights, Poirier has gone 5-1 with wins over Justin Gaethje and Dan Hooker.
