Dustin Poirier has hinted at a potential fourth fight with Conor McGregor, suggesting the UFC may be waiting for the Irishman's return from injury before scheduling the bout. The American lightweight last fought in December 2021, losing his title challenge against Charles Oliveira.
Poirier and McGregor first met in 2014, with McGregor winning by knockout. Poirier avenged that loss in January 2021, setting up a trilogy fight in July 2021, which ended with McGregor breaking his leg. Poirier now believes a fourth encounter could be on the cards.
When asked if the UFC was waiting for McGregor's recovery, Poirier responded, 'Probably so.' He expressed frustration with the promotion, stating he had not spoken to them in two months. McGregor has recently resumed sparring as he nears a return to competition.
