Dustin Poirier (merged threads)

WOW! What a great, short fight!
Was impressed by Brookins' chin, once again. As well as Poirier's performance. Would anybody like to see him rematch KZ? I'd also be interested in a fight between him and Cub Swanson.

No KZ beat Poirier with bummed knee and retarded shoulder cuffs. KZ needs to fight the champ
 
Poirier vs. Mendes would be a good next fight.

He wrecked him in rounds 1 and 2. It was pure domination, Round 3 was Dustin's best round he landed a few good shots but nothing major and KZ won that one. Round 4 KZ rocks him and puts Dustin to sleep using Dustin's own move

Saw it exactly the same.
Kz won all the rounds with some giving rd 3 to do.

Awesome fight.

I love how Brookins hipped through the double by DP. He got to comfortable trading with DP though and he ended up getting DPed

No way. Aldo will be champ as long as he stays at fw. Kz will always have his number and fighters like edgar and mendes will make him his bitch.

Poirier is only 23 and is already one of the best FWs on the planet. I know on Sherdog every fighter sucks ass after they lose in the UFC, but smart fans have their eyes on this kid for a reason.

I didn't say he sucks. He's a good fighter but kz a young guy too who's been much more impressive.
 
That was an impressive performance, he got hurt early and backed up against the cage and he fought his way out. This guy puts on a show thats for sure.
 
Great win but no need to throw him to the wolves again, hes still a young prospect with holes in his game. Good sub, Brookins gave up again like the Oliveira fight. Poirier vs Darren Elkins sounds good to me!
 
Poirier looked good, I was surprised when he subbed Brookins.

Poirier is probably my favorite FW. Future champ at 145.

I've heard this one before, but that's cool. He certainly vindicated himself tonight

Yeah and Anderson Silva got beat by Chonan for an all time MMA highlight that will last forever. What your point?

I was replying to the guy who said KZ would always have Dustin's number because he beat him in a fight when he was only 23 years old, and went on to say how much more impressive KZ has been than Poirier.

KZ won fair and square, but to cast doubt over Poirier's entire career just because he lost to a very good fighter when he was 23 is just dumb. KZ lost to some not very good fighters and has rebounded well from it.
 
Probably the second fight I've watched of Poirier but I'm now a fan, love fighters that fire back under pressure. Great fight by two great fighters
 
The 145 division is deeper then most think. We get that because the champ is just so dominant. Great fighter Dustin!
 
Merged? There are only 36 responses. Ha.
 
Nice fight for Poirier, lots of great fights in that division.
 
Dont think Dustin would even want a rematch.Fights like the one he had with KZ are ones that shorten your career.Too brutal,i would love to see it again.

It wont be too different from the first.
