At the UFC 318 press conference, Dustin Poirier, who will say goodbye to fighting with his last dance at the UFC 318 main event against Max Holloway, said that he is ready to trade shots with Max Holloway for the entire five rounds and is not looking to win by points. Here’s what the Diamond said about his last fight.
“I just have a natural ability to get myself in those kind of fights every time. I’m not trying to jab and circle and win rounds. I’m trying to scrap and finish these guys and Max isn’t afraid of the fire. We’ve shown that before we watched his career. We watched him become champion. We watched him put down the legends of the sport.”
Dustin Poirier said
“So you have two guys like that. It’s going to be a head on collision. You know, we’re going to be crash test dummies in there, baby.”
He added
Dustin Poirier has defeated Max Holloway twice in his UFC career. First, he got a submission victory over the “Blessed” at the latter’s UFC debut, and then at UFC 236, where the Louisiana native claimed a unanimous decision victory. In the trilogy fight with the BMF belt on the line, it will be intriguing to see whether Dustin Poirier retires with the BMF belt on his shoulder or Max Holloway avenges his defeats.
Charles Oliveira Picked Dustin Poirier For UFC 318
Former lightweight champion Charles Oliveira has his favorite for the UFC 318 main event, and according to “Do Bronx,” it will be Dustin Poirier who will get his hand raised after the fight.
“For me, of all of the guys I’ve fought, he’s the one with the sharpest boxing. He fights more consciously, he has a very heavy hand. He knows how to play the game. He will fight at home practically, so I think Poirier wins.”
Charles Oliveira said
