Media Dustin Poirier's gameplan: 'What I want is for both of us to be dripping blood in the 1st min'

Bad idea , this is exactly was Mcgregor wants , if he tries to firefight with him early there’s a good chance he’s getting dropped. this could also be bs gamesmanship by Dustin

I wish someone would fight Conrad with that prime Weidman-like pressure. He was able to smother his opponents with pressure without leaving is chin exposed. I'm talking his early days like he did against Anderson & Machida.

That would be Rafael dos Anjos. It sucks that fight never happened.

That's a terrible plan. Going up against Conor in all out firefight in the first round is exactly what Conor wants.

He's at American Top Team, trust me Poirier has a very high fight IQ, he'll be doing exactly what his coaches tell him. They are prepared for Conor. Conor is pretty much a very one dimensional fighter, right hand knock out.
Poirier will win this one.

Hey, I doubt it.
 
POIRIER MUST GRAPPLE--HE WONT THO AND GETS SON'D AND HUMILIATED AGAIN--I HOPE IM WRONG
 
POIRIER TALKING LIKE THEY GONNA BE GASSED AND BLOODIED AFTER 1 MIN? YEAH HE/S LOSING
 
Um hey Dustin, a guy with a bad gas tank. You work his body....
 
Ok place your bets on Conor because that’s the most retarded game plan I’ve ever heard. Seriously the only way Dustin can lose is if he stands and trades with Conor in the first or second round. By round 3 he’d be in the clear. That’s like planning to grapple against the fence with Khabib. He’s done for

A lot of fighters/trainers have said that about Conor in the past. It's much different when he's actually in front of them. Having a timing advantage usually makes the difference regardless if you know what moves are coming. Look at Ryan Garcia in boxing, all he uses is a jab, a straight cross, and a left hook for the most part. It's the timing that beats everyone regardless of the limited moves being used in the fight.
 
A better strategy would be to pull guard and try to submit conor off of his back
 
You people really believe Dustin is dumb enough to 1. actually employ this strategy against a guy who already KO'd him, and 2. tell him beforehand?
 
Conor won't even cut Poiriers he will just tko him

That Weidman would be a real problem for Adesanya
