UFC odds have hit the board for a possible fight between “Notorious” Connor McGregor and Dustin “Diamond” Poirier. While McGregor odds have been up at select sportsbooks for several potential matchups, this bout seems more likely than others.
UFC fight odds for McGregor vs Poirier opened with McGregor as a -175 favorite while Diamond comes back at +150.
McGregor has “retired” three times but the former two-division champion is still the biggest MMA draw in the world and is just 10 months removed from a first-round knockout of Donald Cerrone.
Here are the McGregor betting odds currently on board. Keep in mind that these fights are nowhere near confirmed and most books offering them will have strict cut-off dates that the fights must be completed by.
Conor McGregor vs Dustin Poirier
McGregor and Poirier had recently discussed a charity bout to be held in December and as soon as UFC president Dan White caught wind of that he tried to set up an officially sanctioned UFC fight.
McGregor tweeted that he has accepted the offer from the UFC but indicated the fight must happen in 2020 while giving three possible dates, November 21 and December 12 and 19.
Hello Dustin! I accepted the @ufc offer to fight you, but told them it must happen in 2020. I’m ready for Nov 21st, given that cards recent injury issues, as well as any of the December dates, the 12th and the 19th. I’ll also still donate the $500k to The Good Fight Foundation ???? https://t.co/23hN4AHtoI

The two fighters met up as featherweights in 2013, with McGregor starching Poirier in the first round but a lot has changed since then. McGregor has fought only three times in the last four years while Poirier has won six of his last seven fights, including victories over Justin Gaethje, Max Holloway and Dan Hooker.
| Fighter | Conor McGregor | Dustin Poirier |
|---|---|---|
| Odds to win | -175 | +150 |
Conor McGregor vs Manny Pacquiano Odds
McGregor may have lost in his boxing debut against Mayweather in 2017, but reportedly earning $130 million in a TKO defeat sounds like winning to us. McGregor has been in serious talks to fight another boxing legend in Manny Pacquiao, and while the bout isn't a done deal yet Pacquiao recently signed with Paradigm Sports the same company that manages McGregor.
The 41-year-old Pacquiao is an eight-division world champion in boxing and would be a heavy favorite against McGregor in the ring.

| Odds to win | +450 | -800 |
Conor McGregor vs Khabib Nurmagomedov Odds
This might be the most hyped potential fight on the docket with plenty of bad blood between the two. Khabib made McGregor tap out in the fourth round with a rear-naked choke at UFC 229 in 2018, but McGregor has made it very clear he wants a rematch with the current lightweight champ.
| Fighter | Conor McGregor | Khabib Nurmagomedov |
|---|---|---|
| Odds to win | +240 | -333 |
Conor McGregor vs Justin Gaethje Odds
As much as fans will be clamouring for McGregor-Khabib II, the Irishman might have to first get through the current interim champ in Gaethje. There's been plenty of barbs thrown between these two as well with McGregor recently stating that he was going to "f***ing butcher" the title-holder over comments that Gaethje had made criticizing him as a a father.
Justin, there is no danger in a man that hugs legs, we all know. Try and dance around what the real threat is here all you want.
— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) May 11, 2020
I am going to fucking butcher you.
Your teeth. I’m going to put them on a fucking necklace.
Speak on my skills as a father?
You are fucking dead.
This could be a fun one as the war of words heats up between the two.
| Fighter | Conor McGregor | Justin Gaethje |

| Odds to win | -110 | -110 |
Conor McGregor vs Nate Diaz Odds
On September 15, Diaz took a shot at Notorious by sharing a video on Instagram showcasing his win over the Irishman in 2016. He captioned the IG story with "I forgot who won."
McGregor ended up winning in a brutal rematch against Diaz five months later and while a trilogy might have sounded exciting a few years ago, it's lost some lustre now, especially with Diaz coming off a TKO loss to Jorge Masvidal.
| Fighter | Conor McGregor | Nate Diaz |
|---|---|---|
| Odds to win | -250 | +175 |
Conor McGregor vs Jorge Masvidal
When McGregor returned to the octagon in January, many MMA fans were hoping to see him square off against Masvidal who is coming off a loss to Kamaru Usman for the Welterweight title. Masvidal had previously won three in a row, including the fastest knockout in UFC history when he took out Ben Askren with a flying knee at UFC 239.

How To bet UFC Fight Odds
The most common way to bet on MMA odds is to wager on which fighter will win the bout. Oddsmakers use head-to-head moneylines to set these markets, calculating an implied probability for each fighter and then setting a corresponding moneyline – or cost to place that bet.
UFC fight odds will usually look like this:
- Fighter A +250
This means that Fighter A is the underdog and on a $100 bet, you'll stand to win $250 if Fighter A wins.
- Fighter B -300
Fighter B is the favorite and you would need to bet $300 to win $100 on a Fighter B victory.
