Heading into UFC 264, ‘Wonderboy’ said that McGregor needs to use his old technique and body movement to beat Dustin Poirier in their trilogy fight.

During his recent interview with Submission Radio, Thompson said that seeing as Conor McGregor is a lifelong martial artist, it should be fairly easy for him to go back to the old body movement technique.

‘Wonderboy’ added that Conor McGregor should’ve been working on going back to his old technique immediately after the second fight with ‘The Diamond’ at UFC 257, given the fact that a third fight between the two men was always likely to be on the cards after their second meeting.

Conor McGregor will return at UFC 264 for his first-ever UFC trilogy fight

Conor McGregor will be returning at UFC 264 in what will be his first trilogy for the UFC.

‘The Notorious’ will aim to get back to winning ways by avenging his last loss to Dustin Poirier, as the Irishman is set to headline yet another UFC card.

Conor McGregor has previously avenged and bounced back from losses in his career.

However, given how resilient Poirier was at UFC 257, the Irishman definitely has to be careful while dealing with ‘The Diamond’ in their third fight on July 10.
