Was Gaethje vs Poirier ever supposed to happen?

I could've sworn I heard this matchup officially announced one day and then it got officially canceled.
It's weird how Justin just got shafted and forgotten without a fight in 2021.
 
I thought harder about this than I needed to.

Was a good fight you should go watch it Dustin tuned him up.

He's not forgotten about. He's holding out for a title shot when he just lost one in dominant fashion.
 
Gaethje wins in a rematch
I don’t know about that. A more methodical Gaethje is definitely a better fighter, but I’m not so sure Dustin can’t find that compromised chin again. But I would watch a rematch regardless.
 
I had to re-read the TS first comment to make sure it wasn't dated April 1. Gaethje-Poirier was supposed to happen but it was replaced by Gaethje-Ferguson, which unfortunately fell through as well.
 
Well it did and it was clear who was the better man.
