Won a performance bonus in 6 of last 7 fights, and those 6 bonuses were wins vs very tough competition:
McGregor, Hooker, Holloway, Alvarez, Gaethje, Pettis
He's the best after khabib and and it's been that way for years, people been sleeping
A class legend
Nobody has a current resume like Dustin
What a résumé wow
@@JAYfromTHEworld I’m not hating I love this guys channel. I was joking “kid”
Dustins Energy: I cant let you get close.
Lol facts

this will 100% go over the casuals head
Stolen from Chael
Okay, great.
"If he'd a starched me, everybody'd be saying this is the best Connor has ever looked".
No truer words have been spoken!! Poirier deserves 100% credit for his performance. He is the real deal!!
Facts!! Literally just said the same thing!!
Its more a testament to how fighting is such a 'what have you done lately' sport, to the public eye if you won your last fight you're good, if you lost your last fight you're bad, period.
Indeed. I picked Conor to win, as most did. Now we have to eat our words and give Poirier his due credit
1000% Connors boxing was insanely good but Poirier just has a diamond chin and heart of adamantium.
Casuals are extremely fair weather. One day they love you the next day they hate you.
Dustin exposing all breakdown / body language experts , genuine dude!
all of that has always been bs people were making excuses before the conor fight that hes already lost cuz hes shy LOL
It was a win for the introverts 🙏
@@edmonddantes563 no dustin is better than anti social little girls
He did say he didn’t want to be there though, but once he gets locked in the cage the madman comes out.
@Brian T LOL
DP is so right in saying that if conor won, everybody would be saying "oh he's the greatest form" and all that... so true... so true.... spoken like a truth telling champ right there
That’s true, but now Conor knows that he has to change back to his old style, taking nothing away from Dustin’s performance at all, he was the better fighter, but I hope we see the trilogy some day
@@DATAYT Conor can't go back to his old style because it's still reliant on wide stance with exposed leg and everyone is onto that now. He doesn't have many options for altering his style. He gasses too quickly to hang for full bouts, and now without stance he cannot generate the power to finish bouts quickly. He's pretty much done as a top level contender.

@@dbjmk8083 Uhhm ok maybe Proud was the wrong word, I’m sorry, No of course I did not raise him, but you don’t have to raise someone to feel proud of them, but you are kinda right as proud would usually be used by someone who is close to that person, maybe I should have said “Dustin I am happy, glad, pleased, thrilled, delighted, elated, chuffed, made up, overjoyed and ecstatic for you.
Sorry mate is that better 😊
I love how Dustin's getting irritated the more Ariel asks weird questions lol.
Yeah I'd be pretty sick of questions to. He is deep in a media circus now and he clearly hates it.
@@chinsymcgee1327 it’s what you sign up for and I’m pretty sure he’s not that annoyed .. he gets paid
The question regarding the PPV cut seemed to touch a nerve, I wonder if Dana did him dirty 👀
Dustin's awesome! The "I will smesh" guy was really great, but Dustin is such a humble badass.
he's really nosy 👃
Dustin is finally getting the recognition he deserves. So happy for him
Rightfully deserved
@Le Monke even if he doesn’t fight Conor again, he’s a hall of famer already
Yeah man always been a warrior
True.. too bad Dustin has such a bad attitude towards the UFC overall. And I'm not hating on it, I kinda agree with it.. But overall, publicly, and for the sport his disgruntled and dismissive attitude towards the game and the company and the media is only gonna hurt his position. And he does come off as annoying by being this dismissive as he is.. other than that it's all props to the man.
At least im glad conor got knocked out by Dustin excellent fighter and very humble. Hard to dislike him!
He's obviously a guy who thinks a lot about his place in the world, and he is using some good tools to block off the pointless noise around him. All the power to him for that. To my mind, he should be champion now.
Well said
That's because fanboys ruined this sport
I consider him the champion.
@@Shorts-rb5og I'm sure he would have cut that extra lb if he knew it was a title fight.
You got that right @rickard
I really hope he’s getting paid well.
I hope so too but I have a feeling he doesn’t (yet). He’s not in to the entertainment side of it. He doesn’t like stirring drama. Which I respect very much. But I also know it’s not great for the checkbook.
Didn’t know you were a mma fan

"The plan was to be a mixed martial artist"... all this boys speaking of who's the greatest boxer in the ufc and forgetting what they're actually playing...
They can't claim to be best wrestler or grappler
That belongs to Khabib.
So the stand up game either boxing or kick boxing is open.
@@mrb2643 As you said Khabib is the best grappler/ wrestler not the best mixed martial artist.
@@mrb2643 not the same fool, there’s more money in boxing and it’s more main stream and attracts more fans to say you got the best hands in MMA. They care about the shine that self tittle gives them
The title of best wrestler has already been taken by khabib, so they’re clawing for scraps 🦅
You don't play fighting 😂😭
Dustin seems like a legitimately good dude who has had enough of everyone’s BS
Totally agree. Good observation!
The man has beaten killer after killer and all the MMA experts are trying to solve the puzzle of how Conor lost the fight. Dustin beat 4 former champions before fighting Conor. One more shouldn't be all that surprising
@@benlewis5312 for real
And I don’t blame him I can feel the frustration and putting myself in any fighters position who has to deal with the bs that comes with modern mma and I would lose it more visibly than others due to my anger issues lol
Guess that makes 116 of us 117 including poirier lol 😁😉
I feel for Dustin, he seems like an anxious/thoughtful guy and this media stuff is visibly bugging him a bit. Hope he's fully enjoying his win and he doesn't get too tilted from fans and media. People get incredibly obnoxious trying to talk about fighting when they don't have the experience to back it up.
Agree- he’s a more polished Diaz
Yeah i remember people commenting about the press conference , saying that conor was on dustin's head , saying that he was gonna lose the fight before even see them fight , people are so dumb man
@Unpredictable_One_ UFC I think its the media being borderline disrespectful. He says something meaningful and the interviewers are like "yeah okay" onto the next question that's unrelated to what he said. I can see it in his facial expressions at times
When I used to watch football (soccer) the athletes don't get this many interviews. They aren't repeating themselves to different interviewers for days on end leading up to their match. So I can only imagine what it's like for fighters
A little weak but I can't blame him, must get very old and discouraging being counted out and looked over all the time. Dude has earned everything he has and he should view himself as the new champ.
"25 minutes to make life fair" I love that quote

I like how Dustin is treating Ariel here. Isn't letting him get any of his slimy questions in. Congrats Dustin.
Way too many fighters let things slide in interviews. Gotta call em out and still keep it professional like Dustin did.
Forreal nice breath of fresh air
They aren’t slimy questions, it’s more a matter of how you handle them. None of these questions would have been wrong to ask Conor. Dustin is different. Ariel should adjust based on who he’s talking to, but at the same time, Dustin doesn’t want to answer any of these questions.
26:52 "done it in blood, nothing was given to me." great phrase talking about his life and fighting career. dustin is a badass, for sure one of the best MMA fighters out there.

@@StelioKontos42069 it wasn’t show/win $$$ It was straight up pay plus his bonus
The most serious comment of all was “listen Ariel, I’m not asking how much ESPN pays you.” Also, Dustin is mad about something
Noticed that too, i think he’s just not into talking about money. Or he didnt get ppv points
Hes like this with Ariel
Imagine how scary in person if Dustin had that tone of voice with you.
He’s seen the shallow side of the business. The side where he’s only loved by the world for a fight EVERYONE counted him out for, even the top ufc fighters and analysts counted him out. After all the work and effort he’s put into prove he’s good enough. Now he just doesn’t want the love from the world.

"The floor ain't no place for a Champion" - Dustin Poirier
Good for Dustin for calling all the armchair analysts in this sport. It really is profoundly stupid. He's certainly one of the most likeable guys in the sports tied with Max Blessed I think.
Very unpopular opinion but I don’t really get why everyone loves max so much
Are we not allowed to have opinions on who's going to win a fight? Or did you just pick him to win and want to gloat about feeling smart?
@@shredkaczynski8414 No, that's not the context he's talking about. He's talking about all the analysis AFTER the fights where everyone has an opinion that's pretty useless. Aka, "Conor has lost his touch" but if Conor won, "Conor is better than ever!!"
@@natehamby3349 He's genuine and badass, what more could you want?
So are a lot of other fighters, and he also comes off as a bit cocky sometimes. I just don’t really get it. I know not many people agree
I understand completely what DP is saying... this man had one of if not the biggest win of his life and all anybody has talked about since is ...Conor this, Conor that, Conor stance was different, ...How bout DP won the fight and let’s talk about that. I feel for him in that matter. Congratulations DP!! Go get that belt Champ!!
thats because conor making 1000 mistakes is more conversation to talk about than dustin winning what else is there to say about dustin than that? everyone knows he did a good job reading conor getting a few nice counter right hooks and the counter calf kicks which set up the tko conor was def different theres no arguing that he was flat footed the whole fight high boxer guard was 90% boxing which made him predictable he was a completely different fighter and not in a good way everything he usually does he didnt do
Truee
You are right, it was as simple as dustin won cause he was better fighter. Even conor and his coach said that conor was in his best shape. Some mcnugget fanboys 🙄
@@darkknightrises3875 conors team is delusional
@@StelioKontos42069 that makes conor delusional too then but doesn't matter if i like him as person or not, he is still really good fighter and distin beat him, simple as that
Bro when he said " Listen Ariel, I don't ask what ESPN pays you"...my heart dropped to my stomach...you could see it in his eyes he was ready 🥊.. they say it's the quite ones who are the most dangerous 🥊😂😂
"Listen Ariel.. I don't ask how much ESPN pays you." Well played Dustin!
The fierceness in Dustins voice when Ariel kept asking about how much he made was so crazy 😂😂😂
Dude really dont give af about the money he wants respect that nobodys given him, I'd be pissed too if everyones making excuses for the dude that you just beat. Like he said if Conor starched him everyone would be saying how great he is right now
It's not decent to ask how much of money you make ..its been too nosyb
You can tell dustin dislikes ariel. His "how are you" was so forced.. ariel did him dirty a few months ago or something.
@@BoBedrosian is it excuses or the truth. Conor seemed so different. Before during and after. I think he lost his competitive edge
Southern thing; even in TX talk like that is a no-go
This guy deserves all praises speaks well talks we’ll never left what started him. Uncrowned champion 👑
Ariel's questions be like what was ur underwear color when u fought Connor.
Ariel’s questions be like how did conor smell when you knocked him out cold
@@prodjackgraves they said it was a tko conor was stunned but his eyes didnt roll back didnt go stiff on the initial punch and grabbed his head which shows consciousness maybe that was all just a coincidence tho
@@StelioKontos42069 semantics. I’d say he was severed from consciousness even if only briefly
It was black, he wore Black underwear.

I'm not sure if Dustin is angry, frustrated or just at peace with himself. He should def be the champion now. What y'all think? This interview got awkward at times though.
Seems like he’s fairly frustrated with the UFC in general to me. Can’t blame him he’s received a lot of disrespect from the company despite being not only one of their best fighters but imo their most exciting fighter
He’s probably still shocked imo, crazy accomplishment, he’ll get the title shot, no worries

CONOR! CONOR! Olay Olay Olay Olay Olayyyyyyyy!! OLAY!!!
Poirier is so right. Everybody talks conor this conor that. Conor was well prepared vs poirier and was well prepared vs khabib
He was very well prepared against Dustin but definitely not against khabib

Still want to see him rematch all of them... and even fight tony or Olievera
wasnt a piece of cake justin was cuz he got ended in the 2nd khabib grinded both conor and dustin down it took khabib 4 rounds to grind conor down to win and dustin just knocked him out in the 2nd round if anything its a spit in khabibs face cuz he just excitedly knocked conor out and didnt leg wrap hold then submit late in the fight

If he didnt make them the most money then he wouldnt be in the position hes in nor would he be as rich as he is himself
Dustin has been on edge ever since fight week. He has huge chip on his shoulder
Can't tell if that's an insult or compliment.😵
Huge, he actually might take the Conor fight again, who knows
He honestly always seems like that
He was a prisoner on yas island
"Now you're doing damage control before this thing even comes out!" --Dustin on 🔥
Dustin checking Ariel real quick at 17:52
Dustin Poirier vs Charles Oliveira for the belt is the only fight that makes sense for him
No not really justin gaethje vs porier makes the most sense, they were both interim champs and lost to khabib. Olivera has only beat 2 top 10 guys both coming off losses
@@mamamymammasaidthat6764 Justin is coming off a loss especially with a heavy division like lightweight so I don’t see him fighting for the belt I think him and chandler will fight next
On God he better not fight Nate Diaz
Da Archduke Franz Ferdinand my heart can’t take another Diaz loss
@@xPhobxc yeh but that was agasint khabib. Everyone lost against him. Porier and gaethje are ranked 2 nd 3 , Olivera and chandler are 4 nd 5 so them 2 fight for the winner of gaethje vs porier. Easy
"No. I want to hurt these guys" 😂 saaavage
How cant you like this kid ? I remember watch n a show on showtime a long time ago about dustin and a few other guys ! Try n to make it in mma he was a nobody ! But he has worked and given so much and now he is a superstar ! What a story ! What a person he realy deserves all of the glory !! Great man humble and gives back !!!
Fightville!!
Dustin vs Charles, Justin vs chandler, tony vs hooker all on the same card
Take my money, brother.
People doesn't really care about other weight division huh? 🤣
poor conor
I wouldn't mind having some cards more focused on specific divisions actually
Yup
I respect poirier more, he had the picture of Jackson in his room. The first black box world champion during slavery
This is lightweight Monday. I’m not even mad that DC and Helwani didn’t come on today!
Dustin Poirier, "The Hot Sauce Boss" deserves all the praise. The man is a skilled warrior that has paid in full, with blood, sweat & tears. Stop asking him about Conor!
Tons of respect to The Diamond, you could tell he was uncomfortable at times, but he kept his cool & carried himself like a champion!
Great guy. With the most impressive fight record, this dude fought em all
You can tell by the way he talked about Nate Diaz, that is 100% the fight he wants next and frankly, so do I.
Diaz does not deserve a title fight
Hard pass... we know Dustin would destroy Nate.
@@downloader950 Never said anything about a title.
@@andymurdoch2708 You didn’t even know who Poirier was until two weeks ago. Nate vs Dustin is a very competitive matchup.
@@positivevibes532 dustin is only fighting for a title next, and Nate would never beat anyone in the current top 5 except Connor who is only in there because of politics
LMOOO! Ariel shitting bricks when Dustin said, "ARIEL, LISTEN!"
Hearing about his return home made me smile big time.
The respect nate diaz has among fighters he can be unranked but everyone would like to fight him.
Big name, easy win....
@@markroyds23 and a good amount of 💵
@@markroyds23 badass scrap
@@dees9748 seen Nate's losses? He sucks against any wrestler
@@dees9748 Bro he has more losses than anyone in the top 5 lol
"I protect my Energy" needs to go on some t-shirts
Ariel: what’s you net worth?
Dustin: $2000000 in troll currency.
