Former interim lightweight champion, Dustin Poirier has welcomed the chance to take on former two-time foe, Max Holloway in a future trilogy bout in the future — particularly if the symbolic BMF crown is up for grabs against the Hawaiin.
Poirier, the current number four ranked lightweight challenger, has been sidelined since June, most recently headlining UFC 302 in an undisputed title charge against pound-for-pound number one, Islam Makhachev.
And suffering an eventual fifth round D’Arce choke submission loss to the Russian, Poirier revealed earlier this summer how he planned to make one final Octagon appearance — if not two, eyeing a return to his native New Orleans to compete in the future.
