McGregor will be making his first Octagon appearance in a year, and an impressive victory could land him a rematch with Khabib Nurmagomedov down the road. The Irish star defeated Poirier via TKO in their first meeting at UFC 178 in September 2014.
Poirier has become a more established star since then, winning the interim lightweight crown before falling to Nurmagomedov in a title unification bout at UFC 242. That is his lone loss in his last eight Octagon appearances.
