Dustin Poirier is challenging Islam Makhachev to a rematch and in the process is responding to ‘bumskie’ Conor McGregor.
‘The Diamond’ (30-9 MMA) fought Makhachev (26-1 MMA) in a lightweight bout a month ago today at UFC 302. The result was a submission victory for the Makhachev, the lightweight champion, at 2:42 of Round 5.
In a series of messages, Dustin Poirier took to ‘X‘ to callout Islam Makhachev to a rematch as well as calling out Conor McGregor to meet him in the Octagon.
Addressing Makhachev, Poirier said:
If arman can’t fight let’s go again @MAKHACHEVMMA https://t.co/RibEH9MFXr

“If arman can’t fight let’s go again @MAKHACHEVMMA”
If Makhachev’s expected title defense against Arman Tsarukyan (22-3 MMA) doesn’t go through, Poirier is making it known he’ll be ready for a rematch.
The 35-year-old Poirier went on to address the Irishman with a series of messages:
