LowKick MMA will be bringing you UFC 257: Poirier vs. McGregor II results throughout the afternoon (Sun. 24th. January 2021) from the Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
Rounding out the promotion’s first pay-per-view event of the year, a pivotal lightweight rematch six-years in the making. Former interim lightweight champion, Dustin ‘The Diamond’ Poirier re-runs his September 2014 matchup with former undisputed featherweight and lightweight titleholder, ‘The Notorious’ Conor McGregor in a potential 155-pound title-eliminator.
Returning to winning-ways last time out, Lafayette striker, Poirier hopes to make it two wins in two, following a barnburner unanimous decision victory over event co-headliner, Dan ‘The Hangman’ Hooker at UFC Vegas 4 in June last. The American Top Team staple is tasked with avenging at UFC 178 opening round knockout defeat to the Dubliner.
