Poirier VS McGregor trilogy was almost put on hold because of a Twitter spat between the fighters. Conor said to Dustin publicly and told him that the fight is ‘off’. He would be more interested in fighting an honest opponent at UFC 264.
The Notorious One was furious after getting in a Twitter quarrel with Poirier over a $500,000 donation. A week ago, The Diamond blamed McGregor for not giving the cash he had vowed to give his charity. ‘The Good Fight Foundation’ was going to receive a charitable donation after their UFC 257 conflict.

A furious McGregor has attacked Poirier on Twitter, dispatching a series of insults at him prior to cancelling their session. While calling Dustin Poirier an “ingrained hillbilly,” McGregor said that The Diamond is new to cash. Poirier didn’t have any plans on how he would have utilized the $500,000.
