Please explain why you think Poirier is “fake”

Conor and Colby both say it's true and they are the biggest stars in the sport.

I'm not stupid. These guys have the inside scoop and are loyal to their fan bases--they wouldn't lie.

Dustin showed fake respect out of fear for Conor in their 2nd fight but celebrated after Conor flukishly broke his leg in the third fight.

I always wonder about what kind of mental midget gets something, I mean anything at all, from dumb trolling attempts like this.
 
People say he’s fake because they can’t comprehend someone being a decent human being

How was it debunked? Just curious, didn’t follow the whole story.. I’ve read that it was debunked on this board a couple of times but noone will say how.. thank you

The fighter Dustin was sparring is Felipe Douglas, not an amateur at all as Colby kept saying

 
He's a good guy in a MMA way.

Guys fight for a living, so you really can't expect them to doesn't talk shit or get hot headed at times.

Again, the dude fights for a living.

I’m not going to say he’s fake but…when he landed that punch on Conor in the second fight then pointed and laughed? It’s like he was waiting years to gloat for that moment. I couldn’t ever see Machida, GSP or Fedor doing that. And that’s why they are my favorite fighters. He does come off as disingenuous to me. Conor or Dustin vs the champ? Im rooting for Olives all day long.

How dare a fighter respond to the previous trash talking in the actual fight? The nerve...

And he didn't wait years for that, just a few months since last fight. The problem with Justin is he didn't allow Connor to get his way when it really matters, therefore he must be a sob...
The guy that left on the stretcher because he broke his leg before the fight and still kicked like a mule is not really the gold standart for anything but self embarassment...
 
I also thought worrying about whether or not someone is fake is something that teenage girls do. Ever had a job that pays anything ?? Yeah you gotta be fake or your fired.

Can someone who doesn’t trust Poirier and think he’s fake please explain why? I see your comments here all the time. Is it because he directs a nonprofit? Is it because Colby says it? Is it because he’s kind of soft spoken at times? I swear for the life of me I cannot see why anyone would think he’s fake. To me, Dustin has always been straight up through his career, and his run following the loss to Conor has been epic.

You can see it in his eyes.

I don't think he's completely fake, just that he can be pretty classless. Examples:
- Post hooker fight
- That training footage
- Post Conor fight

Also please don't launch into me about it. It's just my opinion. He's classy when his opponent is, but that's not exactly setting a high bar.

Man, I don't need to hear shit about Poirier's "classness" when we have fucking pieces of shit like McGregor and Covington heaping personal attacks on anyone and everyone. How do people even put Poirier in the same category? Are you insane? How do you not see the difference?
 
Never liked the dude. can't even say why, just don't

So here's the thing specifically regarding the "fakeness".

Post fight after Poirier and McGregor:

1) Poirier points and laugh at McGregor
2) Poirier's wife flips him off
3) Poirier mocks McGregor's broken foot

He also: wishes him well, and for him to return safely to his family.

After you mock the guy for breaking his feet, laughed at him, and then choose to wish him a safe return to his "beautiful family".
The part where you comment the guy about his beautiful family comes off as extremely insincere and faked.

You're acting like none of that negativity was provoked or justified at all, like it all just happened in a vacuum. There's nothing contradictory in any of what Poirier said. He responded in kind, but he still refused to cross the lines McGregor crossed. That's self respect, not fakeness. Holy shit.

No he mocked him and then addressed conor's death threat that stuff like that shouldnt be said and that he wants fighters to return safely to their families.

Did you miss the part of my post that said “second fight”? There was not any trash talk by Conor leading up to the second fight. We all have our opinions and I’m not a fan of him. Or Conor. I think they are both fake. I want Charles or Justin to hold the belt.

Indeed I missed the "second fight" expression in your post... I feel embarassed right now :(
 
Dustin is a good guy.
Just like many human beings he makes mistakes.

The only fake thing i can come up with is him wanting to fight Nate Diaz.
This whole 'belt' is suddenly not important anymore while he was crying about it im the past.
