I'll tell this story every chance I get. In the run-up, (just over a month out ) to the Khabib fight, Diamond,(along with Mike Brown and Jolie) flew from Florida to Detroit, then drove from Detroit to Lakeshore, Ontario,(just outside Windsor, Ontario). Why? To put on a training session, autographs and photos to help raise money for a charity named after a 4 year old boy who died from brain cancer. That's who DP is. Stand up, classy dude all the way.

Dustin is one of the real ones. When Ariel ask him "Were you ever offered that fight on 10 days notice?" Poirier simply says "ya." He doesn't say he accepted the fight. He ASSUMES you know he accepted it. Ariel had to ask "well, did you accept it?" for him to say "of course, I'm Dustin Poirier." Just a dude who lives for this game. He's one of the most genuine dudes in the sport.

@mikecatanzarite6198 10 месяцев назад

Dustin posted a video of himself standing on a scale weighing 180, saying he was "in decent shape" and this was when he cut to 145. Surely he has put on (at least a small amount) more size since he has moved to 155. He could absolutely fight at 170 if he wanted to, it's unlikely he walks around at a weight further than 5lbs from Colby's walk around weight..

@KeyserSoze23 10 месяцев назад
