UFC 264 live stream: How to watch McGregor vs Poirier 3 online and start time
UFC 264 time and date
The UFC 264 main card is set to start at 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT / 3 a.m. BST today (July 10).
Poirier vs McGregor 3 ring-walks should happen at around midnight ET / 9 p.m. PT / 5 a.m. GMT.
The preliminary card starts at 6:15 p.m. ET, and the second prelim card begins at 8 p.m..
The event is going to be live from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
It’s almost time for the UFC 264 live stream, as yesterday’s weigh-in proved the last bit of theatricality for the return of The Notorious One, who’s looking to break the tie against a long-time rival. But UFC head honcho Dana White isn’t letting anything up to chance, breaking things up on Friday after McGregor attempted to kick Poirier at the press conference.
It’s just more proof that McGregor can’t wait. After their fight this past January, McGregor was handed a 180-day medical suspension, due to losing that match by getting knocked out in the second round. So, it’s six months later, and McGregor’s back to avenge that loss.
This match is the third of the trilogy between the brash Irishman and Dustin “The Diamond” Poirier, and if you think this one will end by TKO too, you’ve clearly got an eye for history. McGregor won by a round 1 TKO in their first meeting, back in 2014 at UFC 178.
Poirier could have followed their last match with a fight for the vacated lightweight title after Khabib Nurmagomedov retired. Instead, he chose the idea of a big-money rubber-match against McGregor.
This match has a bit of drama going into it, as Tuesday saw McGregor post what would appear to be a screenshot of an Instagram DM request from Poirier’s wife Jolie Porter, on his twitter account. It was likely a fake, and we’ve yet to see official word from Poirier regarding it. Better to ignore these shenanigans, we guess.
