The highly anticipated UFC 264 will feature one of the most significant trilogy fights in the history of the sport. Headlining the event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Conor McGregor (22-5) will face off against Dustin Poirier (27-6, 1 NC) for the third time.
There are numerous promotional opportunities awaiting Michigan sports bettors for the highly anticipated fight this Saturday, offering them an excellent chance to win substantial amounts of money.
Rubber match to settle the score
In 2014, McGregor and the other star crossed paths, resulting in McGregor securing an impressive victory via TKO within a mere 1 minute and 46 seconds of the opening round. This encounter took place in the featherweight division, where both fighters weighed in at 145 pounds.
In January of this year, the lightweight (155 pounds) rematch occurred, and it was during this fight that Poirier achieved a remarkable TKO upset victory in the second round (2:32).
For the upcoming UFC 264, Poirier is currently considered a slight favorite over McGregor. According to DraftKings Sportsbook, Poirier has been given a -130 favorite status, while McGregor’s odds of winning are listed at +110.
