Conor McGregor expects to KO Dustin Poirier in the main event of UFC 264.<\/p>\n

McGregor and Poirier are set for their highly-anticipated trilogy bout<\/a> on Saturday night in Las Vegas. It’s an intriguing matchup due to the fact they fought in January where Poirier scored a second-round TKO. Yet, ahead of the trilogy, the Irishman is oozing with confidence as he expects to KO Poirier once again.<\/p>\n

“He talks some amount lately which he will pay for; it\u2019s not going to be nice,” McGregor said to Rolling Stone<\/a>. “I\u2019m going through my opponent on July 10th… I\u2019m going to knock him out. Without question. I\u2019m the most dangerous I\u2019ve ever been, I\u2019m the most focused I\u2019ve ever been. And I\u2019m going to take him out. He won\u2019t have any way to deal with what I\u2019m bringing on Saturday, and that\u2019s it.”<\/p>\n

Why McGregor is so confident is due to the fact he’s finally being active. The Irishman says he’s at his best when he can be active and now he has two fights within seven months which he says will only help him come Saturday night.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m always better when I\u2019m busy. I always say that. So, it\u2019s going to help. When I\u2019m active, I\u2019m fresh, I\u2019m dangerous, and I\u2019m hyper-focused,” McGregor said.<\/p>\n

If McGregor does get his hand raised, he would earn a lightweight title shot against Charles Oliviera<\/a>. UFC president, Dana White has made it clear the winner of this fight will get the next title shot. Yet, according to McGregor, he says he doesn’t know what will happen next as he says he will decide what is next for him.<\/p>\n

“After I steamroll my opponent, I\u2019ll decide what I want next,” McGregor concluded.<\/p>\n
