The long-standing rivalry between Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier remains one of the most highly discussed topics in the MMA world. The Notorious One isn’t one to back down from a fight and also to spare any expenses when it comes to talking trash to his opponents.
Conor McGregor recently conducted a Q & A session on Twitter where he answered various questions asked by fans. Among the questions asked by fans, one fan in particular asked him who his easiest opponent ever.
@TheNotoriousMMA who was your easiest opponent ever #AskNotorious
Conor McGregor wasted no time in giving a simple reply, as he answered that his easiest opponent ever was Dustin Poirier back when they first fought at UFC 178.
At UFC 178, McGregor faced off against Dustin Poirier and made short work of his opponent, beating him in the first round with a knockout. As fans know, his second encounter against Poirier didn’t turn out as he expected as McGregor was knocked out by Poirier.
McGregor is set to square off against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 on July 11th in their third fight together. Both of them currently have a win over the other, so we will have to see who will become the definite winner in the high profile rivalry. Should McGregor lose, it is likely he will lose all of his credibility.
