Conor McGregor was recently seen flaunting his bulking physique on Instagram, proving that he’s completely focused on his upcoming bout with Dustin Poirier. The Notorious One will meet The Diamond for the third time in the main event of UFC 264 on July 10 in Las Vegas. The pair is currently tied at one bout apiece in their rivalry, with McGregor winning the first clash in 2014 and Poirier getting his hands raised in their rematch earlier this year.

After UFC 257, both men appeared to leave Fight Island on good terms. McGregor challenged Poirier for a trilogy bout, with the Diamond on board with the idea. However, the mutual respect between the duo soon turned sour as Poirier publically accused the Notorious One of not donating the money he had promised to give his charity - ‘The Good Fight Foundation’ - after their UFC 257 clash. In reply, McGregor slammed Poirier for not sending him the “plans for the money” which made him suspicious as he didn’t know where his money will be used.

Because of this, McGregor even threatened to call off the bout, but UFC President Dana White later confirmed that the bout is set to happen on July 10. Afterwards, Poirier released a statement on social media, apologising to McGregor for publically accusing him. The Diamond admitted that he “jumped the gun” and should have talked to McGregor personally before taking things to Twitter. A few days later, McGregor confirmed the trilogy bout news, but things between the two men are still not the way they used to.
