This looks like an action packed follow up to UFC 217. He probabaly never be one, but I really want Poirier to be a title contender. Just like the way that guy fights.
Weird ending to the fight, but who says ground fighting can't be entertaining? Poirier and Pettis with a fun main event that was mostly grappling and G'N'P.

That was a whale of a main event. Hoping Gaethje beats Alvarez because Poirier/Gaethje would be insanity.
