Conor McGregor vows to ‘BURY’ Dustin Poirier as feud continues but UFC star offers Nate Diaz fight if rival ‘bottles it’

CONOR McGREGOR hit out at old UFC rivals Dustin Poirier and Nate Diaz in a Twitter tirade.

The American, 33, recently beat Michael Chandler, 36, in New York but was later hospitalised with staph.

McGregor, 34, responded to the news: “Heal up soon scruffy knickers.”

Poirier, who was knocked out in their original 2014 fight but won the two rematches, asked if McGregor was “ready to get slapped around again.”

McGregor responded: “Ye I’m in Amsterdam jacked like van damn. You weren’t just hurt pal. You were scared hurt don’t forget it.

“I’m coming back to put you in a box. Full of it. I’m sending you off this earth. Permanent.”

The back and forth led to Diaz, 37, chiming in with: “You both get knocked out all the time.”

Diaz beat McGregor in March 2016 but lost their thrilling rematch five months later with a trilogy decider yet to materialise.

The MMA veteran is now out of contract with the UFC amid rumours of a switch to boxing.

But McGregor still wants to settle the score with his old rival, if Poirier is not made available.

He tweeted Diaz: “I’m fighting you too. But I will bury him quick first. Way handier fight/her knickers/More recent story line etc.

“If he bottles it, it’s you. I’m also in Amsterdam, weeds great, and I’m not a bad guy I’m just a great martial arts actor with boat loads of money.”
