Dustin Poirier refuses to let MMA retire him.
After establishing himself as one of the most exciting and beloved fighters of the past 13 years, ‘The Diamond’ will lay down his gloves for good in his native New Orleans. But not before headlining one more pay-per-view event.
This Saturday, Poirier closes out both his career and his trilogy with former featherweight king Max Holloway in a BMF title clash at UFC 318.
At 36 years old, Poirier is still competing at the top of his game, most recently taking former lightweight champion Islam Makhachev into the fifth round before succumbing to a d’arce choke.
