Conor McGregor and the past couple of years!
The last time anyone laid eyes on the ‘Notorious’ one in the octagon, Conor McGregor fell short in his bid to exact vengeance on Dustin Poirier, in their famed trilogy bout. Poirier walked away with the triumph, given McGregor sustained a gruesome leg injury, that rendered him unable to walk.
Since 2020, the 34-year-old has picked up one victory, having fought thrice, defeating Donald Cerrone. In the wake of this, he opted to face Dustin Poirier twice but fell short in both encounters.
