Dustin Poirier vs Justin Gaethje 2 | THE BMF BELT
Poirier and Gaethje will fight for the ceremonial BMF title following Jorge Masvidal's retirement
Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje will run back their 2018 Fight of the Year candidate with some added pageantry. Poirier vs. Gaethje 2 will headline UFC 291 in Salt Lake City, Utah, on Saturday, July 29 with the honorary BMF title at stake.
UFC president Dana White revealed the UFC 291 main card during an Instagram Live session on Tuesday. The winner of Poirier-Gaethje will not only be presented with the BMF (Baddest Mother F---er) title but will also find themselves closing in on a UFC lightweight title shot alongside the winner of Charles Oliveira vs. Beneil Dariush which takes place on June 10 at UFC 289.
The BMF belt is a ceremonial title that was created for the high-profile fight between Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz at UFC 244 in November 2019. Masvidal won the fight in Madison Square Garden and was awarded the title by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. White announced on Tuesday that the informal title was vacated after Masvidal's recent retirement.
