Dustin Poirier Calls Out Conor McGregor For Backing out of $500,000 USD Charity Donation
Going back and forth to outline the situation.
Shortly after predicting he would beat Dustin Poirier with a front kick knockout in the fourth round at UFC 264, Poirier scoffed at the bold prediction and called out Conor McGregor for backing out of a charity donation.
Ahead of their UFC 257 rematch, “The Notorious” has noted that he would be donating $500,000 USD to Poirier’s The Good Fight Foundation. Reports reveal that both the verbal promise saw McGregor and Poirier’s teams exchanging bank information ahead of the fight with plans for the donation to be made after. Responding to a fan, Poirier questions the sincerity of McGregor and revealing that his foundation has made three attempts to reach out without a response following his victory.
The call-out caught the attention of McGregor who outlined how the donation was not a debt and subtly questioning the legitimacy of The Good Fight Foundation as they did not detail where the money would be going.
Check out the back and forth between Dustin Poirier and Conor McGregor who are set to face off for a trilogy fight at UFC 264, July 10 below.
A donation, not a debt. We’ve been awaiting the plans for the money that never came. I do with all my donations. Know where it’s going dot for dot. Otherwise it goes walking. As is the case with a lot of these foundations, sadly. You took the McG over the belt shows I was right.

We thanked him because his team reached out fight week to initiate the process but ghosted us the past 2 months after the fight. My foundation has reached out 3 times since with no reply. We’ve moved past it! We will be announcing our next goal soon! Its a big one🙏 https://t.co/mtiOFBsd2q

His team hasn’t responded to our emails about anything involving my foundation after they reached out to us originally. All good, Dinner and talk was great but don’t get on Twitter and be a tough guy lol.

My team does their due diligence to make sure every donation meets the mark. My generosity is known. You will pay with your brain for this attempt at smearing my name. Shooting ass shelling ass bitch. Little bitch kicks from a shell. Good luck when you’re caught. You’re fucked.
