UFC boss Dana White revealed after Conor McGregor's shock defeat to Dustin Poirier that Khabib Nurmagomedov has told him: 'Be honest with yourself, I'm so many levels above these guys.' 

Poirier pulled off the greatest victory of his career by gaining revenge to losing to the Irishman seven years ago by pulling off a brilliant second-round knockout-victory at UFC 257. 

In the second round, Poirier took the centre of the ring and unleashed a flurry of strikes that the Notorious simply had no answer for, with the referee Herb Dean step into wave off the contest and hand the Diamond a monumental victory to shake up the lightweight division.
