UFC 302: Poirier vs. Mcgregor

Poirier Claims Victory in Clash of Titans

Poirier Emerges Victorious, Securing Victory in Three Rounds

In a highly anticipated rematch, Dustin Poirier defeated Conor McGregor in a thrilling main event at UFC 302 at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, on June 1, 2024. Poirier controlled the fight throughout, dominating McGregor in the grappling exchanges and eventually securing a third-round submission victory.

Poirier's grappling prowess proved too much for McGregor, who was unable to effectively defend against Poirier's suffocating ground game. Poirier secured a deep rear-naked choke in the third round, forcing McGregor to tap out and end the fight.

The victory marks Poirier's second win over McGregor in a row and solidifies his position as one of the top lightweights in the UFC. McGregor, on the other hand, has now lost three of his last four fights and will need to regroup and reassess his future in the sport.
