Hats off to whomever posed as Conor McGregor reviewing Dustin Poirier’s hot sauce

Remember when Dustin Poirier and Conor McGregor faced off at the UFC 257 ceremonial weigh-ins? They were all intense and in each other’s faces before McGregor pulled back for a handshake, and that’s when Poirier killed him with kindness by giving him a bottle of his signature Poirier’s Lousiana Style Hot Sauce.

They were bros, arm in arm, and I thought, “That’s nice.” It never crossed my mind that the moment could lead to a tremendous burn against McGregor.

And yet, someone gave us this hilarious review on the sauce’s website (via Twitter):

Kicks your leg and knocks you out

“You know what they say: styles make sauces. It’s not that I don’t have the style to handle the heat but this sauce took out me leg. Fair play to Dustin. he’s a great sauce maker. It hit me right in the muscle. There wasn’t a mark on me face but me leg was gone. Hats off to him for such a great sauce.”

McGregor is never going to live down being decimated by those calf kicks before the finish.

Hats off to whomever wrote this.
