McGregor to face Dustin Poirier at UFC 257
After three retirements in four years, Conor McGregor is the odds-on 4/11 favourite to win his comeback bout against Dustin Poirier at UFC 257.
McGregor and Poirier have met in the Octagon before back in 2014, where The Notorious won in the first round. He’s 2/1 to repeat his first-round victory, seven years later.
Poirier has won five of his last six fights, beating Justin Gaethje, Eddie Alvarez and Max Holloway in the process, only losing to Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 242. Poirier is 9/4 to cause an upset at UFC 257.
Coral’s Harry Aitkenhead said: “McGregor is back, again, and we make him the hot favourite to return at UFC 257 with a comfortable victory over Dustin Poirier later this month.”
“We go 2/1 that it’s a repeat of McGregor’s first round victory over the American back in 2014,” added Aitkenhead.
