News Conor McGregor wants Dustin Poirier trilogy fight for belt

I thought this would happen immediately after the fight ended. Dustin vs. Oliveira for the belt and Conor vs. Chandler in a title eliminator would be better, imo. But with Conor's star power, you know Dana is going to jump all over the rematch.
Happens without a bona fide ranking system that's at least loosely adhered to.
 
Olveria has no chin and has mediocre wrestling . Dustin will survive everything he got and will knocked Charles out cold. This is the same man who did the chicken dance off a body shot and k.od with a jab

I think Charles has earned the shot... And like Dustin has improved his game quite a bit over the last few years.... You may be right, but it's the right fight to make is ought to be a blast to watch no matter who wins Bro
 
Dana at PC -

“Yeh, no, listen, you know what Conor told me?

The kid had Covid and he still turned up to fight.

And now he wants to rematch Dustin for the 155 title at a 170 catch weight for Conor and 145 for Dustin - isn’t that fucking awesome?!”

<31>

Don't be giving the goof any ideas

He fought with covid lol

I honestly won't be surprised if conor says something along these lines,

"I had covid tree weeks before the fight, but I showed up"
 
this is exactly the reason why you should not feel sorry for Conor

they have no shame in asking for a rematch with the title on.
 
If you're Dustin...you ABSOLUTELY want this to happen next for obvious reasons: Conor money, it's for the belt, and you're feeling good about the performance you just did.

It's a win/win for all parties and fans involved.

Oh definitely, it’s the fight to make .
 
Getting a lot of parallels to the Diaz 1 fight here.

With Conor doing well then abruptly losing, vehemently petitioning for a rematch.

Even the fan response is the same.

Lol

Should be interesting to see how it plays out.

I'd like to see him adjust to the calf kicks, take it 5 round and see who comes out on top under those circumstances. Then we will have the definitive answer. Could either be the end of Conor's career or the one that redeems it.

Pretty hype fight
 
the rubber match is fine but it shouldn't be for the title.

Nate is probably still the bigger money fight.
I dont think it is at this point.

The poirier trilogy feels really hot right now.

And it's one that could either end Conors career in the blink of an eye or redeem it.

Theres no way he doesnt retire if he loses again.
 
The 2 best fighters in the division fighting for the belt, how could anyone possibly have a problem with that?
you know that they already did right ?
and Dustin beat the shit out of Conor which actually means that Conor is not the best, he needs to earn it and the ones that already earned it will fight for the title.
go and watch also other fighters , there are realy good fighters out there.

in your logic Conor needs to rematch until he wins
 
Conor needs to leave that bum Kavanagh if he wants to be champion again. Go and train with people who know about conditioning and grappling enough to improve their fighters.
 
Why? Why not just feed Conor to Masvidal? That's a fight that would sell. It's also not a winnable fight for Conor, so he probably wouldn't take it, but I hope it happens
conner wants no part of masvidal

A Poirier rematch makes absolutely no sense right now. Poirier needs to fight for the title next, most likely against Oliveira or the winner of Oliveira vs Chandler. Mcgregor can either finish the Diaz trilogy or fight Gaethje if he wants to stay relevant among the top contenders.

maybe but Nate has a pretty big fanbase of his own.
 
I’d like to see something like this:

Dustin vs Bronx for the belt
Chandler vs Gaethje
Conor vs Tony or Nate trilogy
 
There should be a bet on an online site of this fight taking place with a title.

Sadly it's too possible.

To be fair though i'm a hypocrite. I'd like a Justin vs Dustin rematch for the title even if I think Oliveria should get the shot. Dustin vs Conor 3 will happen if Conor doesn't retire and can get a few wins. Too big of a fight not to.
 
Do the rematch but not for the belt, thats just dumb.


Let Chandler fight Oliveria for the belt

dont be surprised if they do the rubber match right away.

Theres a lot of parallels here with the Diaz 1 fight.
