It was all Dustin Poirier in the rubber match on Saturday, as he defeated Conor McGregor via doctor stoppage (first-round TKO) after McGregor stepped back and broke the base of his shin near the ankle with about 10 seconds to go in the first round. In 4:50 of action, Poirier landed 36 significant strikes along with one takedown.
