Dustin Poirier doesn’t know when or where a trilogy fight with Conor McGregor could potentially materialize after winning their rematch at UFC 257 . In the aftermath of his second-round TKO of McGregor (22-5 MMA, 10-3 UFC) on “Fight Island” in Abu Dhabi in January, Poirier (27-6 MMA, 19-5 UFC) said he hasn’t been contacted by anyone from the UFC or McGregor’s team about a third encounter with “The Notorious.” Publicly, McGregor’s head coach, John Kavanagh of SBG Ireland, has pushed for a trilogy fight to take place perhaps as soon as May or June. That’s not all that far off, and if that’s indeed what McGregor is angling for, Poirier said there’s been no movement behind the scenes.
