Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier fought at the UFC 264 main event on July 10, 2021. This fight was the third between the two fighters, with both winning 1 each. Therefore, people were very excited to watch this fight and see how this trilogy ends.

Coming into this fight Poirier was touted as being the slight favorite as he had won their last clash at UFC 257. Poirier lived up to that expectation as he won the fight via a first-round TKO and claimed the trilogy. However, many people believe that this wasn’t a proper victory, as ‘Notorious’ had snapped his leg towards the end of the first round and could not continue.

Ever since the fight people have been sharing various opinions about it. Now former MMA fighter and sports analyst Michael Bisping shared his views on the same.

He said, “Dustin was destroying him, he wasn’t winning the fight. He wasn’t winning the fight handling it. It was a goddamn massacre. McGregor started pretty decently, coz he had to. He went out there to show everyone that he had done something different.”

“And he came out in a different stance and he threw a couple of kicks, and that was great. And then he started getting his a*s kicked, which is the reality of the situation. Dustin took his time. He was talking breathes; he wasn’t rushing into it. Coz he probably knows McGregor’s gonna come hard, so he was kind of taking his time.”

Bisping clearly seemed impressed with Poirier’s game plan and believes ‘The Diamond’ fully deserved the victory.
