Dustin Poirier Retires – What’s Your Favorite DP Moment?

[lerobshow]

Perfect ending scenario. Yeah, he lost, but he wasn’t outclassed — and he hurt Max. Max just pulled off an incredible performance. I absolutely loved the diversity in his striking, especially those kicks.

Wishing nothing but the best for Poirier. A true gentleman in every sense of the word — inside and outside the cage.

What’s your favorite Dustin Poirier moment?

Mine was his fight with Hooker. Just pure insanity and heart display.

 

[Substance Abuse]

Knocking Conor the fuck out and having him meltdown to the point that he was threatening his wife and kid.

Oh, and this...

 

[prime_lobov]

Probably when he gave up and clinched during the final 10 second throwdown in his retirement fight.

 

[Rampage_Jackson]

My favorite DP moments are not MMA related but I can send you some links if you want

 

[mjoln]

My favorite double penetration is when...wait..oh

 

[legcramp]

When Bobby Green was talking shit during the fight and Dustin proceeds to TKO him was probably my favorite moment.

Probably when he gave up and clinched during the final 10 second throwdown in his retirement fight.

Brother he ain't getting knocked out cold in front of his entire family and carried out the octagon on a stretcher in his retirement fight. Lmao

either he goes out on his shield, or he sleeps max. Imagine how incredible that would have been.

 

[BennyOcean]

The wins over Conor.

 

[Mask Of Winters]

That time he beat Conor. And that other time he beat Conor.

 

[Pancake Sprawl]

every time he beat Conor's ass. that was pure gold

 

[RockyLockridge]

When gaethje head kicked him

 

[Jibsta69]

Getting rid of McGregor where I don’t have to see him and easily avoid his social media shenanigans.

 

[Average]

When he hit Conor with a combo, realized Conor had nothing for him so he hit him with the combo again. That turned Conor into a panic wrestler, Dustin stood Conor up and smacked him with a different combo.

 

[Aurelian]

His fight and comeback vs Hooker was legendary.

But most peoples favorite moment is probably when he knocked out Conor.

 

[FreddieRoachsVoice]

I'd probably say the 2nd Alvarez fight. I always thought Poirier had a glassy chin after he got rocked by Akira Corassani and frequently picked against him (even successfully getting the Michael Johnson upset right) but he kept proving me wrong and I think the Gaethje win and the second Alvarez fight really cemented him as a great fighter and not just a good fighter.

For all of the talk of underachievers in sports, I think Dustin is one of the biggest overachievers. He had a hell of a run for someone who really never had much hype around him and he has a great body of work to look back on. Here's hoping his retirement sticks and he finds something else fulfilling to do in his life

Ending McGregor.
