Dustin Poirier has backed Conor McGregor to knock out Michael Chandler inside two rounds when he makes his return to action later this year.
The former interim lightweight champion has more knowledge of McGregor's power and movement than anyone, having fought the Irishman on three different occasions in his career, winning two but losing the first by vicious first round knockout. And he feels that if his rival can make the right moves in training for his return that he will get back in the win column.
Poirier also faced Chandler last year in a thrilling back-and-forth contest which almost saw him suffer a devastating defeat, before turning the bout around and landing a submission win. And he recently confirmed his own return to action, facing Justin Gaethje in a rematch of their 2018 thriller with the infamous BMF belt on the line.
