WATCH: Joseph Duffy is primed and ready for this weekend’s UFC battle

Joseph Duffy is anxious to remind Irish MMA fans that Irish talent in the UFC doesn’t begin and end with Conor McGregor.

The 27-year-old Donegal native faces Dustin Poirier as part of the 'Fight Pass' prelims at UFC 195 this Saturday and is promising to make it a memorable night.

“Irish fans are going to be talking about this for a long time,” he tells us in the preview.

The fight between the pair was supposed to headline UFC Fight Night 76 in Dublin in October, but Duffy was forced to withdraw due to concussion.

Sounds like the delay has made him even more determined to win this one, his third fight in the UFC.

Could Ireland have another title contender in 2016?

The lightweight bout between Dustin Poirier and Joseph Duffy takes place in the at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas this Saturday, January 2.
