Conor McGregor will be making his octagon return in January 2021 for the first time since announcing his retirement in January 2020. In his last UFC outing, Conor McGregor bested Donald Cerrone within 40 seconds via TKO, breaking Cerrone’s nose with his shoulder. In his return bout, Conor McGregor will be trading blows with former UFC lightweight interim champion Dustin Poirier in a rematch at 155 lbs.
Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier first faced off in 2014 when the two used to fight in the featherweight division. McGregor, who was dominating the division back then, won the fight via first-round TKO.

However, since moving up to the lightweight division, both the fighters have grown, with Dustin Poirier winning his last fight against Dan Hooker. It should also be noted that this will be Conor McGregor’s first lightweight fight since UFC 229, where he lost to the current undefeated champion, Khabib Nurmagomedov. Despite this, Conor McGregor hopes to finish off Dustin Poirier faster than their first bout which ended in less than two minutes.
