Dustin Poirier responds to Conor McGregor’s wish for fourth fight, would ‘shut him up once and for all’

Dustin Poirier doesn’t agree with Conor McGregor that a fourth fight between them is “a must,” but that doesn’t mean he’s unwilling to do it.

McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC) said during a recent social media Q&A with fans that he needs to fight Poirier (29-8 MMA, 21-7 UFC) again before their careers are over due to the unsatisfactory way their trilogy bout ended at UFC 264 in July 2021.

After McGregor won the first meeting with an opening-round knockout at UFC 178 in September 2014, the pair would rematch nearly seven years later at UFC 257 in January 2021. Poirier would redeem himself when he dropped and stopped McGregor for a second-round knockout.
