Victory Over McGregor: Poirier Reflects on the Thrill of UFC 257 Revenge

Former UFC lightweight interim champion Dustin Poirier expressed his satisfaction with knocking out the popular Irish fighter Conor McGregor in their rematch, which headlined UFC 257.

«It felt right for me to defeat Conor in Abu Dhabi, especially after he spent seven years showcasing the knockout victory he had over me. Winning was fantastic, particularly considering we were amid a quarantine and chaos was everywhere.

When I was offered the chance to fight, I was certain I would emerge victorious. I didn’t care about what Conor was doing, saying, or who was standing opposite me that night. I was ready for my hand to be raised,» Poirier stated, as reported by Sportskeeda.
