Conor McGregor has big plans after UFC 257 -- most notably, he badly wants a rematch with lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomdov.
So, what happens if he loses to Dustin Poirier on Fight Island this weekend? That's the question we posed to Dana White.
"Nothing happens," Dana said ... "People lose man. It happens. It’s part of the sport."
"If he loses, he goes back to the drawing board and comes back and fights another day."
Sure, but who gets the next title shot?
Dana says it's pretty obvious Poirier will gun for a rematch with Khabib if he wins -- but nothing's guaranteed, considering all of the monsters fighting for control of the UFC's stacked lightweight division.
