Dustin Poirier’s wife, Jolie, really loves mocking Conor McGregor

Jolie Poirier has no shame in her shade game.

The wife of Dustin Poirier continues to troll Conor McGregor after her husband defeated the Irish MMA star at UFC 264. Ahead of the trilogy fight, McGregor alleged Jolie had sent him direct messages on Instagram.

Poirier’s wife — who went viral for flipping off McGregor in the octagon after the Irishman broke his left tibiareposted an image on her Instagram that show her middle finger moment.

As McGregor sat injured in the octagon after the fight, he said to Poirier, “Your wife is in my DMs. Hey baby, hit me back up and I’ll chat to you later on. We’ll be having an afterparty at the Wynn nightclub baby.”

McGregor then tweeted and deleted a handful of tweets with some pointed at Jolie.

“Hey you guys! I don’t want to associate any negativity with my foundation so I’d like to take this chance to apologize for dustin’s wife trying to message me privately on Instagram,” McGregor wrote, according to screen grabs from MMA Junkie.

Last Thursday, two days before the fight in Las Vegas, McGregor shared a tweeted containing vulgar sexual comments about Poirier’s wife — after Poirier tweeted at McGregor, “Your trash talk is as thin as your hair these days! See ya soon champ champ.”

McGregor also repeatedly called Dustin, “Jolie’s wife” at a pre-fight news conference.

Poirier, who remained calm throughout the personal comments made about his wife, later explained why McGregor’s act didn’t faze him.

“That made him less powerful because he’s talking silly stuff about my wife. She’s ‘my husband’ or something. Like, what the f–k are you even talking about?,'” Poirier told ESPN, adding, “He shouldn’t even be talking about marriages with the s–t he’s out there doing, so …”

It’s possible the rivals could get a fourth fight after Poirier’s first-round win coming after McGregor’s injury.
