Tweet of the day: Dustin Poirier says he didn’t suffer a broken leg vs. Jim Miller

Dustin Poirier and Jim Miller engaged in an entertaining, grueling, competitive bout at UFC 208. The two lightweight veterans won $50,000 bonuses for Fight of the Night, but it was Poirier who had his hand raised as the winner by majority decision.

While Poirier was victorious, he had his lead leg absolutely chewed up by Miller’s heavy kicks. Poirier at times was forced to switch to an orthodox stance in round 3, and caught a major reprieve when he was able to get Miller onto his back and avoid taking further damage on the feet.
