Officially he is 4-0 -0(1) but we all know it should be 5-0, so the question is "Will Dustin keep the streak? will Nate Diaz be next?" I personally yes, Dustin will fight smart and we will win a clear 30-27
 
He never fights smart. He'll lose against Diaz after getting lured into a slugfest
 
And Dustin is 0-2 with two KO losses vs Diaz’s previous foes.

Nate will knock Dustin back down the ladder.
 
Big fan of Dustin, but I still worry about the mental side of the game, he's genuinely looked very uncomfortable when he was face to face with Nate.

I give Nate the edge 65/35.
 
Poirier will put a beating on Diaz. LW is full of deserving contenders, you gotta show a lot of personality to get a title shot, fighting abilities alone don't cut it anymore. I don't see him getting a title shot anytime soon.
