Dustin Poirier might just be one of the classiest men in the UFC, a true ambassador of the sport.
Rather than claim that he just had a ‘bad night at the office’ against Khabib Nurmagomedov in their lightweight title unification bout at UFC 242, ‘The Diamond’ admits the Russian was simply on another level and several steps ahead of him on fight night.
In a recent interview with Valuetainment’s Patrick Bet-David (h/t Sports Keeda), 32-year-old Poirier revealed that Nurmagomedov’s grappling is every bit as good as it’s purported to be and believes ‘The Eagle’ is a true master of his craft.
