Amid continued speculation over his immediate fighting future in combat sports, former interim lightweight champion, Dustin Poirier has suggested he will make one final UFC appearance – and welcomed the chance to fight Islam Makhachev in a title fight re-run.
Poirier, the current number four ranked divisional contender, headlined UFC 302 back in May in an undisputed lightweight title charge against pound-for-pound number one, Makhachev.

And succumbing to a fifth round D’Arce choke submission defeat to the Russian star, Poirier failed in his third challenge for the undisputed lightweight crown, following prior losses to former champions, Khabib Nurmagomedov and Charles Oliveira.
