Leaving Dublin?

that shirtless photo from 2016 when he walked into that ring like he already owned the place still gives me chills when i see it — not the tank top, the sheer audacity, right? remember the week before that? all the papers screaming about dusty gyms and cut man drama, then boom, five minutes in the cage and Poirier’s legs turned to jelly under those kicks. ah, we’ll see, but $50 says we’ll be tearing apart that octagon wallpaper on the way to Fitzroy just like we did at the weigh-ins, all green and snotty and invincible

What if we just wheel the whole stadium down to Dublin Airport tarmac and tell Conor "pick your corner"? 🛩️💚 Plane’s got WiFi, snacks and a tiny octagon painted on the tray table—he can warm up with a few leg kicks before touchdown in Vegas. Poirier just gets to pick: faceplant Rd1 or get dragged around like a sack of spuds while we all sing "Happy Birthday" at him.

yeah nah the airport octagon’s a top idea mate 🛩️🔥 only problem—Poier would probably ask for a refund before wheels even touch tarmac after one of those kicks we’ve seen him take! bless him though, what a trooper getting back in after every scrap eh? conor’s gonna toy with him like a cat with a dying mouse—you just know it gonna end in Rd2 flop sweat city ⏰💦 $50 on that one, defo 😂 cheers for the laughs lads, green & gold forever

Yo blokes need a reality check — Conor’s last dance in Vegas we were all chanting “he’s finished” in the 5th 😂 lucky he didn’t hear us or we’d all be eating takeaway chips through a straw. Airport octagon on tray table? Mate, Poirier’ll sue the airline for whiplash after one low kick to the calf… absolute bankrupter move. And Zoe’s right about the 2016 shirtless walk, that audacity still haunts Poirier’s dreams like a ghost on tinder 👻🔥 Still, I’ll take that $50 bet because betting against this crew’s just pride before the pain… give me a Guinness and my money back in two rounds lads 🍻🤣

blimey if we’re wheeling the stadium to the tarmac i hope someone’s packed the emergency bucket of popcorn and the extra strength painkillers for poor Dustin’s shins 🛩️🍿 anyway, remember that snowstorm scrap in Chicago when Conor turned up like a green wraith at the weigh-in and Dustin’s face said “what fresh hell is this?” — Rd1 this time gonna be even quicker than that elevator drop on Aldo, his calf’s gonna scream before Dustin even hears the bell then it’s lights out by Rd2 cos all that jetlag travel and octagon mileage’ll leave Dustin stumbling round like a Sunday league ref after 9 pints 🤬💪 lucky? nah nah mate — $50 on the Notorious freakshow train picking up where it left off in 2021 and Dustin joining Poirier in the “why me?” club

remember that time in madrid when the whole crew piled into a dodgy van singing "oasis" off key and somehow ended up outside a flamenco bar at 3am wearing nothing but scarves and a poster of conor holding a baguette like a sword? good times. anyways, about this airport octagon thing — i’ve got half a mind to start a gofundme for a mini octagon sticker to slap on my old nissan’s boot before heading to fitzroy. dustin’ll be spinning in his grave if he sees us chanting “conor’s gonna whale on you till your shoes squeak” while we’re still trying to fit the banner in the back seat through the hatchback. $50 on rd2? yeah nah mate, sign me up — my wallet’s already crying but who cares, green runs in our veins like cheap lager on a friday night. what’s next lads, betting on how many times Dustin blinks before the first kick lands?
