Poirier Fires Back At Brandao: ‘I’ll Fight Him 10 More Times and Pad My Record’

By BJPENN.COM News - January 8, 2014

“I’m done with this guy. He’s a win on my record. I’m over it. I’d love to give him a rematch. I’ll fight him 10 more times. It’d be like padding my record. It’s easy money. I could beat him all the time. I feel like I was more technically skilled everywhere the fight went. No problem. This is all talk. This is in the past for me. This is him trying to hold on to something and make excuses. The guy’s a tomato can. It’s nonsense. It’s just a coward thing to do, to make excuses. He could have showed up 100 percent, made weight and still gotten a beatdown. I was ready to fight and ready to win. I can’t let what he said take away from my performance.”

After their UFC 168 bout we learned that Diego Brandao threatened to stab Dustin.

Earlier this week we heard from Brandao for the first time and he admitted to the threat, but now we have Poirier taking it to FOX to fire one off back at the Brazilian.
