Here’s what McGregor had to say on Twitter:
I will give peanut another crack at the King no sweat. I’ll take the gate. It’s my gate anyway. A cool 7. Cash. See you at the weigh ins.

Yes, McGregor is willing to step into UFC Fight Night 76 on five days notice. It’ll just cost the UFC “a cool 7”. And if you thought that whole “interim featherweight champion” thing made him more selective about his opponents, think again. The peanut he is referring to is Poirier, his old rival who he faced at UFC 178. Speaking of old rivals, Poirier wasn’t the only one he took shots at. He also threw some shade at Joseph Duffy, the last man to beat him:
