Can Dustin Poirier get it done at UFC 299?

Dustin Poirier has a record of 29 victories and 8 losses in his professional career. ‘Diamond’ might not be a champ in the lightweight division but he is often regarded as people’s champ. ‘Diamond’s last match against Gaethje was brutal. Both of the fighters indulged in an all-hell battle for the ‘BMF’ belt but at the end of the day, Gaethje knocked out ‘Diamond’ with a kick in the second round.

Poirier is already on a loss and this win is needed for his motivation so for the fact, Poirier will not fight it as a normal match. If we look at the data, ‘Diamond’ has never lost three fights in a row. Poirier will go all in in the match, yet, Saint-Denis would not be an easy nut to crack for Poirier, despite the newcomer status, ‘God of War’ is on a 5-fight-winning streak.
