Previously, the head of the UFC, Dana White, said that he had no opportunity to organize a fight between McGregor and Poirier in 2020, therefore the date was proposed - January 23.

“I accept on January 23!

My goal is for this fight to take place at Cowboys Stadium.

This stadium will be able to accommodate the entire crowd.

I'll be Texas ready and Texas ready for my fans!

And then - Manny Pacquiao, "McGregor wrote on his Twitter.

The first fight between McGregor and Poirier took place on September 27, 2014 and ended with the victory of the Irishman by knockout.

Earlier, McGregor admitted that he considers the fight with Poirier as preparation for the fight with Pacquiao.
