Former interim lightweight titleholder, Dustin Poirier has suggested two notable foes for his final Octagon walk next year — welcoming chance to take on either former-foe, Max Holloway, or undisputed featherweight gold holder, Ilia Topuria after UFC 308 overnight.
Overnight, unbeaten featherweight champion, Topuria successfully defended his crown for the first time, stopping common-foe and former titleholder, Holloway with a devastating third round knockout win, handing the symbolic BMF champion his first knockout loss in professional mixed martial arts.
And as for Poirier, the Lafayette native has confirmed plans to make one — if not two walks under the UFC banner before finally hanging up his decorated gloves, sidelined since he dropped a fifth round D’Arce choke submission defeat to lightweight kingpin, Islam Makhachev at UFC 302 at the beginning of June.
