Poirier’s upcoming fight against McGregor is also going to be a financial boon for the foundation as a whole. There have been backroom arrangements made to pledge money towards a gym in Dustin’s hometown following the McGregor match-up.

While charity is always important, Poirier’s primary goal of becoming a world champion is certainly of high priority as well. Facing the former undisputed champion in McGregor is sure to be a huge opportunity to get himself back in line for gold. Chiefly, he almost made it to the finish line after capturing an interim title. However, a devastating loss to Khabib Nurmagomedov sent him back among the pack of contenders.

McGregor is no less motivated though, and he has his sights set on reclaiming the belt he once held. It’s no secret that the UFC will want him to be champion looking at his status as a bonafide star. This leaves McGregor just one spectacular win away from possibly fighting for the undisputed gold strap once more.

The divisional champion Khabib Nurmagomedov may be in line to retire and this will leave a huge void at lightweight. The 155-pound weight class is traditionally one of the most famed divisions, and holding the belt is a matter of prestige. Both men in the main event come in motivated, and fans are in for a good scrap.
