Conor McGregor has claimed Dustin Poirier didn't land a single calf kick in their trilogy fight - but official stats suggest otherwise.
Former two-weight UFC champion McGregor hasn't fought since losing to Poirier for the second time last July, breaking his leg with just seconds left of the first round. In the Irishman's latest tweet-and-delete spree, he reflected on his third fight with Poirier and comments he made about his rival's leg attacks were disproved.
"I took not one calf kick in the trilogy," McGregor wrote. "Trust me they won't be getting given for free again. Little w***er kicks they are. If you can't kick, kick the calf." But less than a minute into the fight, after McGregor was landing some good kicks of his own, Poirier landed a hard kick to McGregor's calf. 'Notorious' did attempt to check the kick, but he reacted too late as it briefly put him off balance.
