Dustin Poirier vs. Joseph Duffy headlines UFC Dublin

A lightweight bout that will likely serve fireworks has been set as the upcoming Dublin show’s main event, as Dustin Poirier is set to meet Joseph Duffy.

UFC officials announced the news on Wednesday.

Poirier recently moved up to lightweight and hasn’t looked back after two-straight TKO wins over Carlos Diego Ferreira and most recently Yancy Medeiros.

Duffy has also torn up the competition put in front of him, most recently submitting Ivan Jorge in the first round earlier this month. In his debut, he knocked out Jake Lindsey, also in round one.
