The much-anticipated rematch between Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier is finalized. The two men will settle the series tied at one win apiece on July 10th. After their second fight, both men stated that they would be interested in a rematch. However, most fans and pundits alike felt that Poirier would fight for the title and McGregor would have to win another fight before a rematch. 

However, ‘The Diamond’ chose to fight Conor in a trilogy instead of fighting for the title. This move has drawn the criticism of fans and media alike. However, Dana White backed Dustin by saying that one should always go for the biggest fight available. 

Going into the fight, it will be interesting to see what changes both men make to secure a win and walk away with the bragging rights.
