Video – Dustin Poirier teases custom retirement mouthguard ahead of UFC 319 swansong

Just a month out from his career retirement at UFC 319, Dustin Poirier is putting the final preperations to his retirement fight kit ahead of his return — where he will sport a custom-made mouthguard emblazoned with a signature saying.

Poirier, a former interim lightweight champion, is set to headline July’s return to his native Louisiana, as he competes for the symbolic BMF crown for the second time in a trilogy fight against former featherweight kingpin, Max Holloway.

And headlining in New Orleans, Poirier will snap his 13-month hiatus from action for his swansong outing, following a prior June submission loss to Islam Makhachev in his pursuit of the undisputed lightweight crown.
