They wanna play a game of tactics?
No problem, see you in there.
You’ve awoken a beast.
A beast with the backing of a much higher power!
Say your prayers 🙏
To settle their series, the 32-year-old pair will headline UFC 264 on July 10 in Las Vegas.
McGregor admitted after defeat to focussing too heavily on boxing and not being able to deal with Poirier's barrage of legs kicks.
But now, the Irishman has promised redemption with a masterful game plan.
McGregor tweeted: "July 10th I will do this absolutely flawlessly. We have these clowns sussed and fully!
"They wanna play a game of tactics? No problem, see you in there.
"You’ve awoken a beast. A beast with the backing of a much higher power!
"Say your prayers."
McGregor is currently holidaying in Dubai with his fiancee Dee Devlin, 33, son Conor Jr, four and daughter Croia, two.
