Dustin Poirier made his UFC debut again in 2012, defeating Grispi by unanimous determination. He has fought 31 occasions since, difficult thrice for the light-weight title, first towards Khabib Nurmagomedov, then towards Charles Oliveira, and most just lately towards Islam Makhachev, who he pushed to the restrict. Whereas he got here up quick every time, he has crushed among the greatest lightweights of a number of generations, together with Justin Gaethje, Conor McGregor (twice), Anthony Pettis, Dan Hooker, Eddie Alvarez, Jim Miller, and Holloway (twice). His second win over Holloway earned him the UFC interim light-weight title. He’s technically 30-9 as a professional — however apparently, his document is lacking 9 different victories. Evidently, he’s a legend. Sufficient of 1 that he might simply discover himself strolling to the Octagon with Lil Wayne this July.
