Following his defeat at UFC 242 against Khabib Nurmagomedov, Dustin Poirier has been looking forward to fight other opponents and to prove to his fans that he is indeed one of the best fighters in the world despite his recent loss. The Diamond has now called out Conor McGregor over Twitter. This is McGregor’s second Twitter spat in the recent days after his spat with Justin Gaethje.

Let us take a closer look at Conor McGregor vs Dustin Poirier II and see if this rematch is indeed going to happen.

Dustin Poirier vs Conor McGregor rematch does make a lot of sense especially when you see the rankings.

Although I doubt if Conor will take the fight and would instead choose someone like Edgar or Iaquinta. Conor's reply to this will be very interesting.

Conor McGregor vs Dustin Poirier 2: Who Wins The Rematch?

McGregor vs Poirier – the first fight took place way back in September 2014 when both the men were younger and yet to hit the peak but were both established stars! Back then, McGregor knocked out Dustin Poirier in the first round itself. The match ended in less than 2 minutes and was considered an easy win for the Irishman.

Even if a rematch takes place, there’s a belief that McGregor is the superior of the two and is likely to defeat ‘The Diamond’ once again. This would mean back-to-back losses for Poirier from Khabib and McGregor!

I fed you to the canvas in 90 seconds bro.
You should have spoke my name with a bit more respect in that build up. “McGregor’s not next”
Motherfucker, it’s McGregor always!
McGregor is the goal! Always!
Say that now and I’ll think about it.#GoneIn90seconds #NicCage #AJolie
