Poirier looking shredded for Max fight

[that Indian]

Dustin is 2-0 but he tends to lose his biggest fights. Max has a chance to finally get it done.

Did somebody say 4 sizes too big?

2003 NBA draft....lmfao

TJ Ford only normal looking outfit in the bunch!

Big suit, very big suit. Were massive suits in fashion that year or something? Or are these guys just insane with really bad dress sense?

Poirier will be 37 in january.
Shit time flies by, not a good age for hand speed and reflexes.
Let's hope he catches Holloway.

I feel Max is gonna be a totally different animal this go. He actually has power imo at 155lbs when given time to acclimate. Their second fight proved nothing for me. This is the real test.

This feels like a who has more left kind of fight. Dustin has been looking progressively worse since doing the world a favour and effectively bashing Pillowfists McGregory into retirement.

Max looked brilliant and rejuvenated against Gaethje at 155, then made the silly mistake of moving back down, and got KTFO.

So who knows, to me this fight is 50/50. Maybe 55/45 Max.

This was the fashion standard for NBA players for a bit. I honestly think it started with Jordan and his baggier suits, then the 03 class just went fuckin overboard with it.

Dustin and Khalil Rountree prove that there is hope for fat guys

You mean Roy Nelson and Beast Boy, surely?

It's kinda sad we didn't see both at their top at the same time. Max indeed got better lately and fills out his frame at 155. I agree.

1st fight: Holloway too young and inexperienced
2nd fight: Holloway short notice coming from 145
3rd fight: Poirier past prime, part time fighter, needs at least 2 surgeries.

If Dustin pulls it off, he has Max's number


WAR

Also Poirier is slower and throws less these days. Max actually has footwork now and moves instead of just moving forward. I don't see this fight being close tbh. When it was announce I said the same thing. Still will be fun to watch I'm sure, fingers crossed.

Is this the best physically any fighter has looked before a retirement fight?

Most of them you can tell they have one foot out the door because they've slacked on their on their fitness.

He said he started his diet the earliest he's ever had before (carnivore diet). He also said this was the lightest he's ever been coming into fight week. So probably yes to answer your question. I still think it won't be enough, love my guy though.

I don't think adding context to Ilia's wins is salty its just a fake Ilia is facing a lot of guys on the downswing of their careers and catching them after they've fallen off or been cracked.

Is Max himself in that category?

 

[Only Here for Attachments]

You mean Roy Nelson and Beast Boy, surely?

The hope is to no longer be fat

 

[Rampage_Jackson]

Is Max himself in that category?

Yes lol Max has a metric fuck ton of fight milage and probably never should have been at 145 again after he had bulked up to 155 properly

Hate to see these classic action fighters go at each other for the third time. I would much rather have seen both fan favourites teach some other dude a lesson.
I think Dustin gets it done for the third time. Thank you for your service.

Receipt taken and saved.

hate to see either guy lose, but man, I haven’t seen Max yet and my gut tells me Poirier is hungrier. We’ve seen Max in a trilogy match before and that didn’t go well.

I feel like Max will KO Dustin. Similar to how Rampage finally got his win after getting ravaged twice by Wand.

Oh S!
