Dustin Poirier vs Colby Covington

[John Cena]

Dustin has hinted at retirement for awhile now and not many fights makes sense for him other than Colby.

This is the match up to make, there's been years of bad blood there with a lot of history between them.

It's still a very winnable fight for Colby and I can see it as a pretty even match up at 170

 

[Contempt]

Dustin already said he won't fight Colby.

Today... Dustin probably wins... Colby has looked really old his last few fights

 

[John Cena]

Dustin already said he won't fight Colby.

I get that but no other fight makes sense for Dustin.

Colby has looked very beatable lately so Dustin might just think "Fuck it, One last fight then sail off in the sunset"

Do it for his gym, friends and family since Colby has talked shit about all of them.

I say let Hulk Hogan ridden Chaos fight Jolie's wife

Dustin will already have had his retirement fight before the time Colby fights again.

 

[Poirierfan]

Dustin's knocks out the version of Colby we seen last night. Buckley has basic striking compared to Dustin.

 

[Jackonfire]

Sounds like they're already working on Dustin's final fight and I don't think it involves Colby.

What's up with a vocal bunch wanting to watch Colby fight now? You all really think he's cranking out FOTN performances?

 

[IneedSometop]

Hasn't dustin been vehemently against doing anything that will help make colby money?

There's still fights for Dustin. He could do Gaethje III, possible Nate Diaz, Dan Hooker II all those are big fights and make sense for him to do if he doesn't want to line colby's pockets

Oh my gawd, what's Dustine Poirier doing in the octagon!?

Poirier vs Nunes coming up.

This fight doesn’t make any sense. Chandler would make more sense for Dustin. Just feed Colby to the young lions.

 

[Cobra 03]

Covington is not a fun fighter to watch, unless its like last night and he's getting slaughtered. Have Poirier-Gaethje 3. That is a fight most fans would rather see!

 

[GolovKing]

Dustin already said he won't fight Colby.

That was before Colby started regressing this bad though

 

[payton]

Dustin vs Chandler is brewing as we speak. Prates should fight Colby for a spot in the top 10.

 

[JBJ was here]

That was before Colby started regressing this bad though

Dustin appears to be uninterested at this point in his career in taking a fight against someone he has absolute disrespect for. He pissed on the idea of a fourth McGregor fight, and Colby's no different. Regression doesn't increase Poirier's interest in unnecessarily dealing with extreme assholes.

Watch the post fight presser

Enough former LW strikers to give Colby. Dustin might give him a run for his money, but Colby needs to fix the division more and fight a lower ranked guy than Buckley was.
