UFC Norfolk results: Poirier picks up anti-climactic finish after bloody battle with Pettis

While the finish wasn’t what fans wanted to see, no one can deny that Dustin Poirier and Anthony Pettis didn’t bring it at the UFC Norfolk main event!

Pettis opened with a few kicks as Poirier whiffed on some punches. Pettis partially lands a flying knee, though Poirier continues the pressure and secures a takedown a little over a minute in. Pettis starts looking for a guillotine, but Poirier isn’t having it. Pettis than looks for a kimura, but can’t get it as Poirier crowds the fence, leading to Poirier getting in the guard and a few punches before Pettis sweeps and gets to his feet.
