Dustin Poirier discusses possible Nate Diaz fight, Justin Gaethje trilogy following UFC 299 win

Fernando Quiles - March 10, 2024

Dustin Poirier has weighed in on potential matchups with Nate Diaz and Justin Gaethje following UFC 299. Poirier handled business as an underdog for his Miami scrap with Benoit Saint-Denis this past Saturday night. “The Diamond” and BSD collided inside the Kaseya Center. It wasn’t easy for Poirier in the early going, as Saint-Denis bull rushed him and had his back on a couple of occasions. Poirier did what he does best, and that’s bite down on the mouthpiece and send his opponent to dreamland. Poirier knocked his opponent out in the second round with a flush right hand.
