Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Lightweight knockout artists Dustin Poirier and Michael Johnson clashed last night (Sept. 17, 2016) at UFC Fight Night 94 inside State Farm Arena in Hidalgo, Texas.
Since moving up from Featherweight, Poirier has been tearing opponents apart. Thanks to some technical improvements and his incredible punching power, "The Diamond" was knocking on the door of the title mix, and a victory over Johnson could be the last bit of push he needed.
Meanwhile, Johnson was in Poirier’s position a little over a year ago, knocking on the door of a title shot after a big win streak.
