Adam Martin - January 24, 2021

UFC superstar Nate Diaz called out Dustin Poirier, tweeting at the lightweight star and saying to him, “I’m going to whoop your ass next.” The entire MMA world was watching UFC 257, with a blockbuster main event rematch between Poirier and Conor McGregor. After a quick start to the fight, McGregor began to have trouble walking due to brutal low kicks from Poirier, and “The Diamond” was eventually able to knock McGregor out in the second round for the biggest win of his career. The win puts Poirier in the driver’s seat to fight for the UFC lightweight title against someone in his next fight.
