Conor McGregor Unable To Defeat Dustin Poirier In Main Event
4 years agoConor McGregor (22-5) looked solid in the first round of action on Saturday, but he was unable to stop anymore of Dustin Poirier's devastating leg kicks, which eventually led to the TKO stoppage. McGregor was unable to move around well enough to avoid the heavy striking of Poirier after sustaining plenty of leg kicks. McGregor was able to land 29 significant strikes (52 total strikes) in the 7:32 of action, but he was unable to get that one shot to drop Poirier. Though McGregor says he would like to be active in 2021, we won't believe it until we see it. If McGregor happens to return, it will more than likely be in a fantasy friendly matchup.
