Dustin Poirier casts doubt on Conor McGregor ’s UFC return. McGregor’s most recent two appearances came against Poirier, where he was stopped in both fights. Poirier knocked out McGregor at UFC 257 in January 2021, and capped off their trilogy with another finish at UFC 264, where McGregor broke his leg in a doctor’s stoppage TKO loss in July 2021.

Justin Gaethje says several fighters *understandably* turned him down at UFC 313. The former BMF titleholder was set to go to war with Dan Hooker next week in Las Vegas until a hand injury pulled "Hangman" from the lightweight bout altogether.

Dustin Poirier has refuted any suggestion he outright rejected a potential short-notice clash with Justin Gaethje at UFC 313.
