Poirier is the man. Dudes a killer and seems to be genuinely a good dude. Hard picks for bonuses. I think I give Poirier/Hooker FOTN, Erosa and Boser or Hansen performance bonuses. Really tough call

I’ve met a bunch of fighters and Dustin is easily the best of the bunch behind Bobby knuckles, met him at a meet and greet offered to buy him a beer when he was done he ended up buying me beers. Great dude. I’ll be bidding on DPs gear don’t expect to win but I’ll still throw on it

Glad to see Poirier notch another exciting win, and against a big dude. His hands looked sharp and his chin is granite. Hope he comes back soon, maybe vs Ferguson?

I feel like if Gaethje can't KO Tony with the death bombs he was landing than Poirier defo can't.

Dustin Poirer seems like a really great guy who represents himself and the sport of MMA admirably.
Mike Perry doesn’t.

Nah honestly I think Dustin would put it on Tony almost as bad as Gaethje did, personally I think him, Justin and Khabib are the top 3 fighters in the division right now, the only other person who might be able to put up a comparable challenge is Charles Oliveira who has looked all kinds of good recently, and he would definitely have a chance against Khabib with his level of BJJ. I don't expect people to agree with me though.

I hear you fish but at his age and after those wars, taking that damage, he may start losing that resilience.

Of course Tony will begin to become noticeably less durable in the near future, it's inescapable for pretty much all fighters as they get older, but especially when they're known for absolute wars, likewise I don't think there's any way Hooker can continue to get battered like he did in that fight and against Barboza. I have loved seeing Gaethje's new patient and defensive style, although his brawling zombie style was so fun to watch, he's still just as exciting now, perhaps some of these other LWs should start taking notes, it is the most dangerous division without a shadow of a doubt.
