Dustin Poirier has suggested that the UFC are waiting for Conor McGregor to return so they can make an unprecedented fourth fight between the pair this year.
The duo first met in 2014, with the Irishman landing a first round knockout on Poirier at featherweight on his run to the title at 145lb. Then their rivalry was renewed over half-a-decade later when they decided to rematch at lightweight, with Poirier winning that clash.
And last summer their rubber match was ended prematurely when the former two-weight world champion brutally snapped his leg while throwing a kick, losing by TKO. He has since declared the feud to be "not over", and has vowed to face Poirier again, while the American moved on to a world title opportunity.
