After his second victory over Conor McGregor at UFC 264, all the conversation surrounding Dustin Poirier was about a potential fight against reigning champion Charles Oliveira. Three months later, things have come to fruition.
This week, “The Diamond” tweet this out to stir up a conversation.
On Tuesday, the champ confirmed the news to make things official. The two will headline UFC 269 on December 11 at a still undetermined location.
Apart from his two wins over McGregor in 2021, Poirier also holds noteworthy victories over former UFC champions Eddie Alvarez and Max Holloway.
