Jumping guillotine had been a patented move by Dustin Poirier despite it not working out, but it appears he may have — according to Dan Hooker.
Poirier had his coaches yell at him in his corner for jumping the guillotine as if he doesn’t get it, it puts him in a bad position. But, in his legendary 2020 fight against Dan Hooker, ‘The Hagman’ revealed he actually went out from Poirier’s guillotine but no one noticed so the fight continued.
“In the Poirier fight, he had me in the guillotine – I might have been the first guy he ever submitted with a guillotine, but he just didn’t even realize I was out,” Hooker said on the MainEvent YouTube (via BloodyElbow)… “So, I actually woke up, it was the third round, I shot for the takedown, and he jumped the guillotine, and then he must have just run out of steam squeezing.
