‘The Mac is back’: McGregor reacts to official booking of Poirier trilogy at UFC 264

It’s official: McGregor-Poirier 3 is set to conclude on July 10 at UFC 264 in front of a full crowd at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

The UFC announced the news on Twitter earlier today, and McGregor reacted by promising to ‘rip this game a new asshole’, assuring fans that ‘The Mac is back’.

“I signed my bout agreement this morning,” McGregor revealed to ESPN’s Ariel Helwani on Wednesday. “I’m going to rip this game a new asshole July 10th. The Mac is back in Sin City! Full house!”

McGregor had previously called off the fight after getting into a public spat with Poirier over a charity donation, but the rematch is back on and both men are rearing to go.
