UFC 220 Results. Stipe Miocic vs Francis Ngannou (heavyweight title fight) - Miocic def. Ngannou via unanimous decision (50-44, 50-44, 50-44). Somewhat conveniently for all involved, McGregor's current break comes during the coronavirus pandemic when fans can't attend shows, and the UFC can't cash-in on gate revenues.

UFC President Dana White revealed to the UFC on FOX team after Sunday night’s, Jan. 14, UFC Fight Night 124 that UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor will likely be stripped of his title. Now it would appear that the belt will be vacated sooner rather than later.

Russian news agency TASS is now reporting that the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is planning on officially announcing Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Tony Ferguson at UFC 220 on Saturday, Jan. 20. TASS has always been a reliable news source when it comes to breaking stories concerning Russian fighters within the UFC. Reporting on Russia’s own Khabib Nurmagomedov, TASS has provided another interesting fact about the upcoming lightweight match up.

Furthermore, the news source is reporting that it will be officially announced at the event that Ferguson and “The Eagle” will be fighting for the undisputed lightweight title, rather than the interim belt.

Conor McGregor has yet to defend his lightweight title, having earned it with a stoppage victory over Eddie Alvarez way back in 2016. Now it would appear that “Notorious” will have to make his octagon return, if he wishes to regain his soon to be lost title.

UFC 220 goes down Jan. 20 inside the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts and will be featured live on pay-per-view.

• Conor McGregor is 22-4 entering Saturday’s match with his last fight coming in January of 2020.
• Dustin Poirier is 26-6, fighting his last matchup in June.
• McGregor is the UFC 257 main event favorite with odds of -301.
• Poirier has been given odds of +251 to take McGregor down.

ABU DHABI – UFC 257 is shaping up to be quite the fight night as the headliner and favorite Conor McGregor will face off against Dustin Poirier for a rematch that’s been seven years in the making.

The last time Poirier and McGregor were in the cage together, McGregor won the fight in less than two minutes after striking Poirier in the back of the head which many have said was an unfair win due to that type of hit being prohibited in MMA fighting.

Nevertheless, the victory went to McGregor and now the two will finally meet again on Saturday for the first time since 2014.

Odds Favor Conor McGregor

Conor McGregor is slated to win the fight with a moneyline set at -301 odds with legal sportsbooks such as Bovada and BetOnline. Dustin Poirier has been given odds of +251 to win this rematch.

However, it will all depend on the fighting of each man and whether or not McGregor will make a repeat with his strikes the way he did in 2014. While there is no title on the line for this matchup, there is a chance at the lightweight title in the future for whoever wins this bout.

Either the current titleholder Khabib Nurmagomedov will come out of retirement or he will soon be stripped of the title so that other fighters will have a chance at taking it. In either scenario, one of the winners of the McGregor/Poirier fight will have his title shot coming.

That would serve as a big comeback for McGregor who hasn’t had much fighting time the past few years and has become more of a face for commercials rather than being seen in the cage as much as before.
