Finally Bobby Green is coming back and to a great matchup too. This should be a hell of a scrap.

Bobby Green fights like such a ducking ****, he spends half the fight telling his opponent the strikes didn't land and the other half moving away from his opponent then when he loses the decision, he cries about it.

Hopefully Poirier blows right past Green.

Green claims that he's got a fan friendly style, but it just seems like he's up there just shuckin' and jivin'

Prediction: correct Poirier   wrong Decision  

When I think of Green I always remember the Affliction show he was on against Danny Lauzon where he kicked him in the balls twice and still got choked out in the first round, good stuff. This seems like a close match up though, Poirier will never be a top contender in my opinion but he's a solid top 10 potential.

Green's been fighting more and more like a dumbass lately. I wouldn't give him that great of a shot at Poirier even if he fights smarter, especially coming off of several bad injuries.

Prediction: correct Poirier   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

Poirier's technique has been looking a lot crisper ever since he lost to Mcgregor. I am thinkig he wins by KO in the 2nd.

I wish Greenwouldn't have been layer off for so long. Poirier should school him, Green is tough so I expect a decision, but I'm banking on a sub.

@Poir haha to be fair though, I'm looking forward to this fight especially, and I always enjoy watching Dustin fight. This is an excellent match-up. I have Diamond by decision or late TKO.
