Dustin Poirier and Conor McGregor's trilogy bout appears to be set for July 10

• Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier could fight for a third time July 10.
• The trilogy bout will likely headline the International Fight Week UFC festival in Las Vegas.
• "That's the plan," the UFC boss Dana White said.

Dustin Poirier and Conor McGregor's trilogy bout appears to be set for July 10 and will reportedly take place during International Fight Week in Las Vegas.

The bout could head to the city's T-Mobile Arena.

UFC President Dana White said Saturday at a post-UFC 260 press conference: "I hope so. That's the plan. We all hope so."

Within 24 hours, fight teams involved in the summer showdown posted cryptic messages on Twitter.

"July 10th," Poirier said.

McGregor's coach John Kavanagh posted the need for calm before a promotional storm.

As of Sunday, McGregor himself is yet to reference the prospective bout on Twitter.

It would be another box office spectacle

The lightweight match would likely be one of the best-selling UFC events of the year after Poirier shellacked McGregor against the fence, scored a knockdown, and then left him unconscious on the canvas in a wild second-round finish on Fight Island earlier this year.

McGregor has apparently been hellbent on revenge ever since and it is a fight Poirier is happy to take, as he turned down a UFC lightweight title shot in favor of MMA's money fight.

Instead, Michael Chandler and Charles Oliveira vie for Nurmagomedov's vacated belt.

On the landscape at 155-pounds, the UFC boss White said: "Dustin wants the rematch. It's smart, that's what he should do. He should take the rematch, take that fight. It's a big fight for him.

"[The] kid's worked hard his whole life, his whole career to be in a position like this and that's the fight you take."
