Dustin Poirier Form

‘The Diamond’ has lost just once since September 2016 and that was to Khabib Nurmagomedov.

He is now on a 7-1-1 run that has seen him knock off a bunch of big names.

He has submitted Anthony Pettis and stopped both Justin Gaethje and Eddie Alvarez by strikes.

Conor McGregor Form


Conor McGregor may be MMA’s biggest star but his outings in the Octagon have been rare in recent years.

McGregor was on top of the world when he stopped Eddie Alvarez in November 2016.

That victory in New York made him the first man to hold UFC titles in two different weight classes at the same time.

He walked away from the sport after that and lost a ‘dream’ boxing match with Floyd Mayweather the follow summer.

When McGregor returned to the UFC in October 2018 he was dominated and tapped out by Khabib Nurmagomedov.

The Irishman finally ended his win drought in January 2020 when he stopped Donald Cerrone in 40 seconds.

However, in his very next fight he suffered the first KO/TKO loss of his career at the hands of Dustin Poirier.
