“If McGregor loses, I think there is a potential for him to retire. I really want this. If Conor isn't going to be champion, and that's a big deal, what is he going to do? He's always going to be the main event but he's going to keep doing random fights against people who don't mean anything? He's already made his money. He always said he was going to get rich and get out. Certainly, he has already become rich. Now we just need to get out. If he can't beat Poirier and can't fight for the belt anytime soon, then what's he going to do?” Bisping argued.

With a triumph for each side, the tiebreaker between Conor McGregor e Dustin poirier will be held next Saturday (10). The Irishman won by knockout in the first round in 2014 when both were still in the featherweight division (up to 65,7kg). The North American's 'payback' came in January of this year in the main fight of the UFC 257. The 'Diamante' won the rematch using the method, but this time, in the second round.
