When thinking of the most bitter, heated and personal UFC rivalries ever, the ones which often come to mind are Jon Jones vs Daniel Cormier and Anderson Silva vs Chael Sonnen, however, arguably the most personal rivalry ever is Dustin Poirier vs Conor McGregor.

McGregor's prolonged absence and the ambiguity surrounding his return have led to speculation about his future in mixed martial arts. Notably, UFC commentator Joe Rogan recently suggested that McGregor's fighting career might be over, citing his extended time away from the sport and a lifestyle that appears focused on ventures outside the octagon.

Dustin Poirier has not given up hope of fans seeing Conor McGregor return to the UFC. Poirier and McGregor have a long history, having faced each other three times. Poirier lost their first clash before avenging those defeats with two back-to-back wins.
