UFC 291 is bringing a stacked and action-packed card to Salt Lake City, Utah, on Saturday. The pay-per-view headliner is a rematch between lightweights Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje with the BMF Belt on the line. The belt hadn’t been fought for since Jorge Masvidal defeated Nate Diaz in November 2019.
Poirier defeated Gaethje via fourth-round TKO in what was widely considered the 2018 Fight of the Year. Gaethje will look for revenge while Poirier will look to re-accomplish the feat. Both men are former interim lightweight champions.
