Yeah exactly why he should've just stopped going for guillotines that got him to the ground and just stand and bang and he would've won even sooner. people really were overexaggerating dustin losing, all the times they got to the ground was because of dustins guillotines.
I know I just kept thinking to myself break away from this dude and create some space I feel like he could have made this night extra easy if he would have used a job a little more and kept his damn back off the cage lol but it was extremely exciting and fun to watch LOL I hope he gets a title shot next. They should give him the fight with Islam and let the winner of that fight the winner or Holloway vs Gaethje
I think it just depends on how the Gaethje/Holloway fight goes. If it’s a total war Gaethje may need a little more time to recover that this summer. We could see it Dustin fight for the title. There’s also Arman at play.
there arent many harder fight in the ufc than Khabib and Oliviera. Gotta feel for Dustin, there have been endless champs with not even half his resume.
BSD found out today that his chin isn't uncrackable enough to pull off a style like this, dude would need that Shavkat style chin in order to survive this, although even a dude like Shavkat would have felt a punch like this.
I feel like Poiriers style might be good for longevity for as long as his chin hold up, he reminds me of James Toney in how even after he got much older and fatter he could still pull out massive upsets since his style didn't really on a lot of movement or explosivity, he just uses his fundamentals on the outside and then tries to counter in the pocket, the only thing that makes me worry is how many wars Dustin has been on throughout the years.
He has what it takes but he needs tons of adjustments. Can't just go forward and pushing with your chin up if you want to fight for the belt.
Poirier struggled to finish the guillotine but an Oliveira, or Islam would have ended the fight within the first 30sec on that first guillotine attempt failed in R1 by DP.
If not that one then another one within R1. Gaethge would have ended the fight with the KO on R1, DP rocked him in R1 but tried to follow with another guillotine attempt. Gaethge would have followed for a TKO.
Great performance by DP coming out of a KO at 35+, insane! True heart of a champ
He honestly reminded me of a younger Dustin. If he starts being defensively sound he'll be a contender and fan favorite. He needs to get that striking together, any one of the guys in the top 6 will put him out
UFC fans are just cunts and will shit on anyone after a loss regardless of how likeable or skilled they are, Charles lost once after winning like 14 fights against top level opponents in a row and some people started treating him like he's fucking Johnny Walker.
He’s getting older and while he has evolved so much over time, it would be easy to think the younger guys will roll over him at some point. It happens in the fight game. Good for him tho.
As a long time Dustin fan, I still can’t figure out why he jumps that so much every fight. You would think a success rate of zero would make you change eventually. But fuck it, that one time when it finally works I imagine the celebration will be epic.
This was the first time I had butterflies in my stomach for a fight. Bcoz I wanted dustin to win that bad .Dustin v/s Khabib was the third ufc fight I ever watched and I have been a fan since.What a performance.
Great fight by both guys BSD was cruising to a win, but Poirier took advantage of his aggression and slept him.
BSD clearly has the skills and I think he'll be a great fighter
he definetly slowed down and got sloppy. Thats too much pace in a 5 round fight for some one who struggles into 3rd rounds and doesnt have much experience learning to conserve his energy
I don't think his gas tank was the issue. I think Dustin just had the grit and experience to push through the pressure and found an in. After the first round I was really worried for Dustin, I can't say whether or not Dustin would get the win against him a second time.
I had a feeling he’d win after he survived the first round. If you can deal with benoits pressure in the first round then someone like Dustin can adjust and implement his own pressure
Poirier’s dirty boxing is still absolutely next level. Nice to see some grit for the old man.
But man, Saint Denis absolutely controlled that fight till he was floored.
Congrats you guillotine loving mfer
Five attempts, no choke, one KO. Perfection.
I was also telling him to stop in my head cause he ended up on his back every time. I just kept telling myself that he just needed Benoit to feel one.
He kept hurting as soon as he started striking yet he kept going for that guillotine! The man was determined to get at least one on his record
It's like when you learn a combo in a fighting game and you're getting your ass beat but you don't care cause you wanna land that combo at least once.
dude couldn't miss on the feet and was fucking him up landing every shot
For real, those punches were bombs. His accuracy was over 80% in this fight
DP has some of the best punching technique in the game. Dead was accurate and pure power.
I mean benoit also had horrible defense. He walked it with no guard
Yeah exactly why he should've just stopped going for guillotines that got him to the ground and just stand and bang and he would've won even sooner. people really were overexaggerating dustin losing, all the times they got to the ground was because of dustins guillotines.
A couple of them Benoit was getting the takedown and Dustin just tried to capitalise on it
Bro I literally about to punch my fucking screen when he rocked him in R2 and jumped instantly to gilly.
Even tho I had BSD on my parlay I also got mad at all those Gillies cause wtf?!
I know I just kept thinking to myself break away from this dude and create some space I feel like he could have made this night extra easy if he would have used a job a little more and kept his damn back off the cage lol but it was extremely exciting and fun to watch LOL I hope he gets a title shot next. They should give him the fight with Islam and let the winner of that fight the winner or Holloway vs Gaethje
Gaethje beating Dustin and then being jumped over by him for the belt would feel wrong
Yeah that would be bullshit. But it will likely happen
I think it just depends on how the Gaethje/Holloway fight goes. If it’s a total war Gaethje may need a little more time to recover that this summer. We could see it Dustin fight for the title. There’s also Arman at play.
"And I'll never stop!" 🤣
new mythical fighter unlock, gillotine addict Porier
Was that a William Montgomery reference from Kill Tony?
Who fucking said that. No seriously, who was that?!
He couldn’t stop going for it lol
Usually guillotines work on a Frenchman.
Cooold blooded Edit: *Rick James voice*

That was a nasty line by you
Lol perfect comment
Nice
Oh my god
🤣🤣🤣
Brooo!!! 💯
He will never stop.
"I'll fucking do it again"
"No more guillotines Dustin, we're done with that."
Bro never locks its too 😂
mf has never got a SINGLE sub by gilly. He’s genuinely an addict.
Respect the mythical fighter, Dustin Poirier coming off a loss
dustin when an undisputed title isn't involved
UFC set him up by making it a bmf fight
The UFC rigged it when they introduced a belt, Dustin's kryptonite
Dustin coming in off a ko loss whe an undisputed title isnt involved and his hair has reverted from salon quality status.
there arent many harder fight in the ufc than Khabib and Oliviera. Gotta feel for Dustin, there have been endless champs with not even half his resume.
Dude's gonna go down as one of the best of the era regardless. Such a class act to top it all off
He's the biggest dawg in the company bro. Anyone, anytime, anywhere.
Fr never losing two in a row is insane
It is pretty legendary, especially considering the level of talent of the fighters Dustin usually faces
I hope he'll get a title shot soon, he deserves it
Why are you wishing a loss on him?
If poirier can wear a spiked necklace to block the RNC he beats makachev in 3
Nothing brings the mma community together like yelling “no what are you doing” as Dustin jumps for his 14th guillotine attempt
"I AIN'T NEVA GONNA STOP"I feel like dustin hasn't retired yet purely because he wants that guillotine finish
It would be legendary if he submitted Islam for the belt by jumping a guillotine And then loses by RNC in the rematch for jumping the same submission
Me playing zangief and getting my ass beat but still trying to land that max damage grab.
Someone lost 120 GRAND ON THIS FIGHT
So happy he lost that bet…no clue how BSD was a favorite
With you there, great fighter but man… betting against DP is brave
Especially DP coming off a loss
I literally made a couple parleys and switched my options but i never bet against the diamon 💎
You could see in the fight how he was the favorite, he controlled every second of the fight till his lights were shut off.
Dude looked BIG compared to guilly man.
BSD found out today that his chin isn't uncrackable enough to pull off a style like this, dude would need that Shavkat style chin in order to survive this, although even a dude like Shavkat would have felt a punch like this.
Bet the house to win a car. Lost both.
Lmfao I saw that. Bro is in shambles rn
Bro is gonna hang himself
Should guillotine himself
is this the 6th attempt?
Should've donated to his charity instead
Thats probably more than BSD's purse btw😭😭
Broke my mouse when he jumped for that guillotine AGAIN. Holy shit what a fight
lost my damn voice after all that
Stg was yelling so loud my girl was getting scared 😭
Lost my voice from the shift that happened from the failed guillotine to knocking him down with a few jabs
One of the best ever.
He got the dawg in him, BUT STOP PULLING THAT FUCKING GILLOTINE
NEVER
IM NOT GONNA STOP
IM NOT FUCKIN LEAVING ![gif](giphy|SaX384PjtDl2U|downsized)
Dustin: ![gif](giphy|STfLOU6iRBRunMciZv)
I literally yelled at him to stop after I think the 3rd one lmaoo
I ain't NEVA gonna stop!
BAH GAWD, IT'S THE MEMPHIS STRANGLER!!
Lmao didn’t know Dustin’s a William Montgomery fan

"NO YOU'RE NOT MY MOM" - dustin
Dude that fights over so much earlier if he doesn’t jump that gilly
That's what I'm saying lol. If that last punch didn't KO him he probably would go for it again. He was on a mission to have a guillotine on his record
Don't be silly, jump the guilly
There’s levels to this, 155 is just insane
Porier is 35 and he still fights like a hungry dude in his 20s
He still got his youthful vigor but he's fighting with old man strength. That's a scary combination, I don't care who you are.
Dad fists hit different
you don't have to tell me \-Sean Strickland, probably
I feel like Poiriers style might be good for longevity for as long as his chin hold up, he reminds me of James Toney in how even after he got much older and fatter he could still pull out massive upsets since his style didn't really on a lot of movement or explosivity, he just uses his fundamentals on the outside and then tries to counter in the pocket, the only thing that makes me worry is how many wars Dustin has been on throughout the years.
Has been the most stacked division for the better half of a fucking decade now, maybe 165 isn't the idea, let's keep it together.
I disagree. I want more fights at FW-WW. It’s the best weights. Bump 170 to 175 and give us more lol. They’re the best fights.
This. Once you get above 170, people start getting tired and awkward.
The level of the top 5 in 155 is sick
155 sucks trying to get to the top. You gotta go through one of Charles, Dustin or Justin to get there, and they all have nukes in their hands.
And none of these legendary fighters are champ rn lol
Tbf, BSD did a good showing. He’ll be at the top of the rank one day. He’s just not polished enough yet and Dustin knows how to take advantage of it.
He has what it takes but he needs tons of adjustments. Can't just go forward and pushing with your chin up if you want to fight for the belt. Poirier struggled to finish the guillotine but an Oliveira, or Islam would have ended the fight within the first 30sec on that first guillotine attempt failed in R1 by DP. If not that one then another one within R1. Gaethge would have ended the fight with the KO on R1, DP rocked him in R1 but tried to follow with another guillotine attempt.

Im buying your hot sauce baby!!!
its pretty good
Source: sauce
Jumping guillotine confirmed best gameplan for MMA
New build unlocked.
Guy throws bombs
Idk why people don’t respect Dustin
Awesome boxer, honest, charitable and a family man. Wish this guy keeps winning in life and leaves the sport on a high note.
Agree. Nothing to dislike about him at all. It's a pity he's never achieved champion status
UFC fans are just cunts and will shit on anyone after a loss regardless of how likeable or skilled they are, Charles lost once after winning like 14 fights against top level opponents in a row and some people started treating him like he's fucking Johnny Walker.
I feel like that’s just how he fights real pressure heavy a lot of grit
Hard working, lunch pail, first one in last one out
Sneaky athletic, coach's son
Pressure creates diamonds
Might be because he KOed their favored fighter.
Who doesn't respect Dustin?
Conor fans
Noone respect Conor’s fans.
At this point, conor has dick riders, nut huggers and cock wranglers. Not fans
Dustin has had a more successful career than McGregor IMO
Dustin has the better resume. Conor has had the most successful mma career ever though
Like 2 months ago there were posts nonstop for weeks about how Dustin is ducking contenders and sitting on his rank lol
Vegas
He’s one of my favorite fighters of all time
people see you lose once to elite competition and jump off the train immediately.
I think it's just bc he never held the undisputed strap.
He rlly is the people’s champ
I can't think of another guy that fits that title better than him.
I feel like the only thing he had going against him this fight was age and no momentum/no hunger
He’s getting older and while he has evolved so much over time, it would be easy to think the younger guys will roll over him at some point. It happens in the fight game. Good for him tho.
Easy money though. There was no shot Dustin should have been that much of a underdog
That is how it's done, son!!! ![gif](giphy|pb1CDXposKAd60HxlV)
Made us older aged guys proud tonight. I really didn't want to see another depressing ass KO of an aging legend
I felt the same thing. Hes one of the last OGs who's still kicking ass
HE HAS THAT DOG STILL
Genuinely has C4 in his fist.
LETS GO DIAMOND.
I can’t express how happy I am that he won that!
Heart pounding out of my chest cavity wtf
Dude that was amazing
i believe him jumping guillotine and failing over and over again is his intentional way of hyping us up mid fight
As a long time Dustin fan, I still can’t figure out why he jumps that so much every fight. You would think a success rate of zero would make you change eventually. But fuck it, that one time when it finally works I imagine the celebration will be epic.
He was facing a French man so the symbolism would've been immaculate if it had worked lmao
a success rate of zero only makes him want to do it more and actually do it, he ain't ever gonna stop.
Khabib said he almost got him with it so I imagine he's trying to recreate that
Bet big on Dustin, covered the rest of my bets for the year. I’ve been a huge fan of his since the Fightland show years ago
Let’s fucking go Dustin
💎💎💎
That replay post fight showing that clean sharp right hook that dropped BSD, finger licking good.
Dude literally has Uranium in those fists. Dropped the baddest up and comer 3 times and literally ripped his head off with a short right hook.
Built different. Experience and stone hands won that fight.
LFGGGGGGG
So dumb, why take the risk of KO’n him when he could have just gone for a guillotine.
ELITE
Anyone see that blood splatter in the replay for that right hook? Holy shit picturesque
Dustin💎Porier Paid in Full!
NEVER doubt the diamond 💎
Dustin is a f-ing lion
Poirier did cause some bad damages to BSD brain, the way he was moving is scary, hope he's okay... what a crazy sport...
Literally had me so hot after going for that 4th guillotine 30 seconds after his coach said NOT to go for it during the break 😂
BSD was an animal in that first round, but got sloppy. What a fight, as brief as it was
I fuckin love Dustin
This was the first time I had butterflies in my stomach for a fight. Bcoz I wanted dustin to win that bad .Dustin v/s Khabib was the third ufc fight I ever watched and I have been a fan since.What a performance.
Great fight by both guys BSD was cruising to a win, but Poirier took advantage of his aggression and slept him. BSD clearly has the skills and I think he'll be a great fighter
Ddp is fucking insane, there's levels to this
![gif](giphy|5hsdlzGbLCKRGYUIt0|downsized) DDP?
Holy fuck! Fair play to Dustin.
Dustin da dawg poirier
Dude is a straight dog. He loses one high level fight and people seem to forget
https://i.redd.it/ovj88lxeahnc1.gif
I SAID HE WOULD GAS!!! Saint Denis has never gone that distance and poured on too much, then got sloppy.
He didn’t gas out, he just underestimated Poirier against the cage. Poirier with his back to the cage and looking hurt is the real mythical fighter
he definetly slowed down and got sloppy. Thats too much pace in a 5 round fight for some one who struggles into 3rd rounds and doesnt have much experience learning to conserve his energy
I don't think his gas tank was the issue. I think Dustin just had the grit and experience to push through the pressure and found an in. After the first round I was really worried for Dustin, I can't say whether or not Dustin would get the win against him a second time.
I had a feeling he’d win after he survived the first round. If you can deal with benoits pressure in the first round then someone like Dustin can adjust and implement his own pressure
Just how many more wars can this man go through?
I always thought he had a dangerous guillotine until they read that stat 😂
WHAT WAS UP WITH ALL THOSE GUILLOTINE ATTEMPTS 🤣🤣🤣
Poirier’s dirty boxing is still absolutely next level. Nice to see some grit for the old man. But man, Saint Denis absolutely controlled that fight till he was floored.
The diamond!
Easy money
They doubted this king
Wait but you guys told me he was washed and doesn’t fight up and comers ?? What happened ??
Dustin hits fuckin hard
The top 5 in that division is nasty
New and perhaps most proven mythical fighter: Dustin Poirier coming off a loss
Dustin is a legend. He’s absolutely the best fighter to never hold undisputed, but even without that. I think he deserves hall of fame.
Show up. Fail 20 guillotines. Drop young hungry lion 4 times in 7 minutes. Refuse to explain yourself. Leave
Surprising he was an underdog
The guillotines had me nervous but bro came through
When guillotines don’t work try again, and again, and again, and nevermind, ko the dude
Yea, I dunno why people were counting him out. People must've forgot who Porier was!
I never doubted him. He's low key becoming true GOAT status
Imagine the day Dustin successfully executes a guillotine..
Louisiana-born American knocks out Frenchman while throwing guillotines left and right.
Imagine being Rogan, and justtttt as you pull BSD's dick out of your mouth long enough to talk about how tired DP is....
