Dillon Danis and John Kavanagh, two of the most important people in Conor McGregor’s inner circle, have reacted to his loss to Dustin Poirier.<\/p>\n

McGregor met Poirier in the main event of UFC 257 on Fight Island last Saturday. The pair’s lightweight showdown was a rematch of a 2014 fight that McGregor won by first-round knockout. This time around, Poirier evened the score, ruining McGregor’s lead leg with calf kicks<\/a>, and stopping him with punches in round two.<\/p>\n

It was far from the result McGregor and his team prepared for, but Danis and Kavanagh have been unwavering in their support of the Irish MMA star in the wake of his setback.<\/p>\n

Kavanagh, McGregor’s long-time head coach and cornerman, was first to comment publicly on his star pupil’s loss.<\/p>\n
