After the complete debacle between UFC President Dana White and Conor McGregor, the Irish bad boy has decided to do a charity event in Ireland. This came after former opponent and UFC lightweight Dustin Poirier sent a response to McGregor’s tweet.
Hey bro! You want to do an MMA charity fight? Zero to do with the ufc. I will donate half a mill towards your charity for it. Sell it on ppv or work a tv deal and we work out other charities that are close to my heart also. I am engaged in many.
Strictly a charity “exhibition”— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) September 29, 2020
McGregor went on to add, “for Dublin card. Baldy wanted rematch for end of year so I set a 3 fight run. May against anyone! Justin was named here, it could’ve been superman. Then Diego for hometown return. Then rematch end of year! Would’ve given me 4 fights in a year. Imagine the absolute sharpness then!”
Just minutes after McGregor sent the charity tweet to Poirier, “The Diamond” agreed and said it will do great for his charity organization as well.

Poirier last fought in June when he picked up a unanimous decision victory against Dan Hooker. That performance earned the two ‘Fight of the Night’ honors.
If this all pans out as planned, things could get very interesting.
