0

Less than 24 hours after Conor McGregor was knocked out in his rematch against Dustin Poirier at UFC 257, the Irish star has opened as the betting favorite for a potential trilogy matchup.

In odds released by online sportsbook BetOnline.ag, McGregor (22-5 MMA, 10-3 UFC) opened as a slight favorite at -140. That means a $100 winning bet on McGregor would return $71.42 (in addition to the initial wager).

The comeback on Poirier (27-6 MMA, 19-5 UFC) is +120. That means a $100 winning bet on Poirier would return $120.00 (in addition to the initial wager).

The fight needs to take place in 2021 in order for action to occur. Both men expressed interest in a trilogy fight in their respective UFC 257 post-fight news conferences.

Ahead of the two fighters’ first meeting at UFC 178 in 2014, McGregor opened as an underdog at +195, with Poirier a favorite at -225. However, the line flipped. Closing odds had McGregor at -276 and Poirier at +159.

Before the rematch at UFC 257 on Saturday, McGregor opened at -175, with Poirier at +150. By the line’s close, McGregor grew to a -283 favorite against underdog Poirier, who was +275.

The data for UFC 178 and UFC 257 above, averages across major online sportsbooks, was calculated and tracked by gambling-line database BestFightOdds.

UFC 257 took place Saturday at Etihad Arena on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi. The main card streamed on ESPN+ pay-per-view after prelims on ESPN/ESPN+.
