Dustin Poirier's Run it Back w/Gaethje, Holloway, Conor, Etc.

[Substance Abuse]

The UFC has been randomly posting Run it Back content without much fanfare. I really wish they would showcase these more. They're great. You get to see what the fighter thought about each fight and get some insight.

Dustin Poirier is vying for the title this weekend against the incredibly dangerous Charles Oliveira and I can't wait for that fight.

Here's Part 2 which is the most recent.



Here's part one from earlier in the year:



As a plus, here's my favorite Run it Back featuring Jose Aldo. This video gives you some great insight to Aldo's mindset going into each fight and what each one meant to him.

Conor II is very hard to beat for me

 

[Madeline Chelsea]

Psyched to see Dustin become the undisputed champ. He deserves it. He's fought all the top contenders, some of them more than once. The rematch with Holloway is definitely my favorite fight.

Conor 3 wasn't even a win lmao

Poirier had that fight in the bag. The leg injury was a great way to save face for Conor, actually.

i picked conor 2 but watching a 1 leg conor have a meltdown in 3 holds a special place

This is starting to feel like an upset in the making. All this Porier talk and he still has to get through Charles first…

Porier is clearly the number 1 LW right now but once that chin cracks hes in trouble. He gets rocked in every fight.

Hell ya. Charles is being over looked here by dustin, ufc and lots of fans.

There’s no way in hell that Charlie can KO Poirier if he can take bombs from Gaethje & Conor.

I voted for Conor 2 but I feel like people forget how badly he destroyed Gaethje. IIRC Gaethje went in with a leg kick strategy and was ready to take a shot to land a shot, this fight being a big reason why he changed his style. Every time Gaethje would go for a leg kick, Dustin would see it coming and counter with a shot to the face. Dustin went 4 rounds virtually untouched before finishing him.

 

[Post 2 Decision]

The best Poirier fight was his loss to KZ

 

[StonedLemur]

Dustin's win over Gaethje was my favorite, because he had to overcome some serious adversity.
I'm a fan of Gaethje so it sucked watching him lose, but that fight was a war.

I believe if they fight again though, Justin takes it.

 

[PunchyMcSplodo]

There’s no way in hell that Charlie can KO Poirier if he can take bombs from Gaethje & Conor.

But it's the bombs from people like Gaethje and Conor that can accelerate a chin's expiration date over time (not to mention all the damage he accumulated from Max and Hooker).

Poirier's chin and resilience at LW are close to best in class for the division, but with the wars he's been in, they can break at any time (see Frankie Edgar).

 

[Gensoking]

Also, it's BS that Conor 3 was a doctor stoppage because Conor was crying for it to be called that.
