Porier has incredible character. Haters dont understand. This man is honorable 💎
Agree but he doesn't even try to build hype or storyline for any of his fights, only for respect n championship belt has he ever spoken of inspiration for him, I feel like screening at the screen always listening to him, the respect n descence is not how you become memorable, love how he fights but bores the life outta me otherwise
@@andythegamertobeatyou just explained his character. He’s not about creating hype outside the octagon. He’s about being true to himself. He’s not trying to be memorable for antics - but for fighting.
@@andythegamertobeatit fans like you who ruin the real grind, instead of talking his way to title fight real fighters earn it. DP doesn’t have to talk to get fans excited. Real fans know he comes to fight .
Conor owns him
@DMTEntity88 stop taking the DMT, rotting your brain.
Dustin taking this fight, to me, cements legacy. Like who the heck at his stage takea on a fight like this? McGregor? heeeeeeck no. DP is the man
Bro I don't agree with that, I reckon once Dana knows you'll give in n fight up n commers I think it's all you will do from then on, sure watch n see if I'm right, win or lose for Dustin, Dana knows now he will fight whoever is given, therefore become the guy with credibility for the new guys to match up against.
Why would Conor take a no name as the biggest UFC star in history? Conor sells a guaranteed 1+ million ppvs every fight. Dustin is not a huge ppv star, so of course he'll take a no name.
@@andythegamertobeatGaethje beat a younger guy and it raised his stock. Dustin’s been sitting in a top rank for years not dropping the ladder behind him
Yan did it with O’Malley. Didn’t work out for him, but he did it
Justin did it last year going against a younger, hungrier fighter. We’ll see if Dustin can do it also. But Dustin is a legend in the #UFC
12:35 Holloway talk
Good looks
How many of these "young lions" look unstoppable ripping through lesser competition on the come up.. then the hype gets burst at the sharp end. Got to admit though.. St Denis is an exceptionally angry crab and I think the whole community really respects Poirier for taking the fight. Such a cool fight.. best of luck to both gents
Yeah Denis is tough that’s why Dustin needed hazard pay to agree to do it
I think his stock will still rise if he get's finished by Dustin.
He's here to stay imo.
Gonna be such a sick fight
@12:35
Really looking forward to Do bronx vs tsarukyan. That would be crazy if Charles takes his best shot, goes down, and then chokes him out in 2 rounds. Charles is like the CPU in "hard' mode in a video game. The way he ran through Gaethje was insane
Dustin is a Legend
yids love kids
The fact that DP uses Android make me even love him more
it's even cooler that his open android use lead to a samsung sponsorship, I love seeing fighters getting the bag!!!!!!!!!!
@@henryowens396so Samsung pays him to use android 😂 I would too if I was getting paid
@@Fibermyalgiasounds more like he was already using it and Samsung capitalized on his celebrity
@@szotakandrei this is exactly what happened,
@@Fibermyalgianah he always had Samsung phones before they sponsored him.
It’s crazy that I used to watch this guy in UFC when he was 23 years old and now dude is 35 and a vet. Props to you Dustin I hope you end your career on a high 👍🏾
“I just feel it in my plums, man” lmao I love this guy. Hope to see him win.
Ready to take to market
@@SirUnaiEmery 2 plums for 1
A beautiful blueish hue, the sun dancing off of them just nice
the diamond definitely experienced in interviews
Poirier the underdog is crazy. Lets go diamond 💎
Hard to believe he’s an underdog. I’m betting on him
@@tydupont8084it’s not that hard to believe. BSD is a killer.. coming off a KO win. Dustin is coming off a head kick KO loss.
@@billfrench1069add to that all the miles Dustin has on his body and being in his mid 30s. He's certainly past his prime and BSD likely hasn't even reached his yet. I still wouldn't count out Dustin though.
He’s the underdog because we know he doesn’t want to do it
@@billfrench1069yes , he’s coming off a headkick ko from the best in the world, bsd coming off a headick ko to the 14th ranked.
27:01 "I'm not THAT much of a degenerate" HAHAHHAHAH talking about PowerSlap
poirier vs volk would have been cool
"i respect this sport, i honor this sport" how can you hate on that. THIS IS A JOB. I think people forget. Your boss calls, you either accept the job proposal or dont. Dustin picks up the call and shows out for the fans. im going to the fight bcuz of him
Can’t wait to see Dustin fights again, anytime he does an interview I listen. I’ll be watching for sure.
😮
Damn I'm happy to see Poirier UFC Journey, dude legitmately a humble good ass person that is also one the top fighters in the world, the excitement he has when he says "Lets go! This what it's about! It's the hurt business..." shows he still has love for the sport 💯
Dustin is the man, always rooting for him LETS GOOO 💎
I love Dustin man. He's much more than a fighter, he's a great person first. I have so much anxiety about this fight though man. Let's go 💎
great dude with his charity foundation
I love DP, man! He's such a genuine, good human being. He's got good charisma, he's got a great sense of humor, and he's very intelligent. I've been a fan of his for a long time now.. and always will be.
Super excited for this fight. DUSTIN IS A G🔥🔥🔥 huge props for taking this fight, it’s going to be a banger
Always love these interviews with the diamond!
Dustin always seems on edge and defensive talking to Ariel
As he should be 😂
Any wise person would be, considering Ariel’s heritage…
because he knows ariel is always trying to create beef due to his grudge against dana white
I noticed that as well. He always seems to think what to say rather than a free flow conversation.
Cause Ariel is a Weaaaaseeeel
100% respect for Dustin !!! He's playing the game with BSD. You loose, you win... no big deal: always in my heart .
Why do so many people say lose wrong?
@@derekbonin4996 sorry mate, English is not my mother tong
Yes, it’s a win win situation for both…
People know Dustin and they will discover who is really BSD… epic fight
@@5t0ng4 oh it's cool, wasn't even talking about you like that, so many people spell it like that
@@superfastjellyfish78 should be a good fight, I'm going for Dustin because I'm from New Iberia Louisiana, one parish right below Lafayette, I probably live about 20 miles away from Dustin.
I'm French and i support BSD 120%🐸 but Dustin Poirier seems to be a true good and humble guy, looking foward to it💪
Love DP !!!!!! Great guy and mentor.Activity in good fight foundation is awesome.😊
26:19 nice east bound and down reference.
Always root for this guy 💪🏽
Dude is a walking billboard
Let the man make his money . He's earned it through blood
Gotta get paid
Blame Dana for guys not getting their sponsorships anymore
Let's go Dustin, remind people who u are.
Porier growing the sport through chance
This Man is a Gangster
Props for not taking the Arman bait question
I thought it was good journalism. He ducked arman
Good to see Dustin get the drive back to fight the tough up n comers in the division
how time flies and waits for no one, proud to say love ya bro, Godspeed
So much Respect for an Og, Real One. 👊
So happy for all the success DP has experienced in his career.
Rooting for St Denis but got huge respect for Poirier, he's a good guy.
Im a Benoît fan but man do I appreciate Dustin !! Such a classy guy & a true warrior!
Dustin has definitely spoken about rankings before, maybe more than the average fighter
When he heard he was ranked 11 I think he started second guessing his decision lol
He’s rank 3 stop smoking
Let’s go Dustin!!! 💎💎💎
Love when you interview DP
Such a great person and down to earth. Im supporting BSD but hope its a classic fight
met him years ago at a PARTY - very cool chill dude !
Anyone know what brand drink that was?
The Diamond 💎
Huge fan of DP. You can tell he’s genuinely a good guy! 👏🏼
You got it DP!! Gangster move not taking an easy fight!!
Met Dustin In Boca Raton. He is incredible. He talked to me for 10 to 15 minutes. Humble man for sure. Made my year.
Dustin the Diamonds 💎 is a real as they come . Been there done that. Dustin doesn’t need to sell a fight to the casual. He is been a top for a decade plus he a beast.
Poirier is a real one
22:05 someone pls send that to D.C. he's gonna have a laugh. Hope to hear them go at it next time DC interviews Poirier😂
Ariel bringing up women fighters out of nowhere was just awkward.
😑
Feel it in my plumbs ! Great reference
Dustin is an hall of famer no doubt, I personally regret he never gets a belt but he s about to let his top 5 spot to the next champ who s BSD
Good luck Dustin - absolute legend!
Respect for Poirier!
The fact that he uses the day dedicated to him to give back to the community says all you need to know about him. Seems like such a beauty! Been my favourite fighter for years and years! Cant wait to see him fight BSD but at the same time I can’t help but be a little worried for DP! 🤞🏼
There are a few Fighters whose perceived value sky rocketed after fighting one particular opponent. They were good before, but no one really cared about them. You guys know who I am talking about
1. Khabib Nurumagomedov
2. Dustin Poririer
That’s because they smoked Conor.
Horrible, horrible take.
@@AndreiLucaa They did. But the world would have continued to ignore them had they not fought McGregor.
Legend of the game. Favorite fighter of all time. War.
My guy bro. My num 1 favorite person/fighter . Such a great human being. Really hope you get this dub. If i remember correctly , he hasn't never lost 2 in a row.
Very honorable man, like Benoit.
Benoit is not « a star in Europe » in fact, at least not yet.
I’m glad he did accept this fight.
Benoit has the same state of mind, if you’re a real fighter you fight anyone that presents to you.
If you know Justin and you know BSD, you know this fight is going to be epic… no matter the outcome of the fight, both will be winners.
For me, this fight is clearly a 50/50…
Maybe I’m a little bit biased because I’m a French person, but I believe this fight is going to be remembered for a long time if it runs until the 3rd round at least. Justin really did well asking for 5!
Both won’t give up
Two real fighting spirits
Grateful to witness the " DIAMOND " ERA. Let's fgn gooo DP. Pay the cost to be the boss !! 😮😮
8:30 "My whole life I been a underdog" 🔥no fear
Porier is the man! You’re my all time favorite bro! You’re a good person and you put it all out there every time! I think at Denis doesn’t deserve this shot yet. Connor should honestly fight him. He’s not a top 10 fighter anymore. I’d love to see st Denis end Connor’s career.
dustin is the man, win or lose, i'll always be rooting for him. seriously, you'll rarely hear him say a negative thing about anyone and it just seems so genuine
Remember St Denis first fight in the UFC? I thought he may die in the cage. Dana kicked the ref out of the UFC
So true lool
The man is a Legend
Legends never use iPhone
I'm French and my favorite fighter has been Dustin Poirier since he joined the UFC.
Ariel tried to instigate beef inside of ATT
You respect the game.
Game respects you!
Lets go! Its a hurt business 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Poirier respecting the game is pretty damn cool
Dustin is the underdog but odds are closing closer to even.
Dustin is a good guy!
I’m worried
ARIEL, if your referring to strickland talking about womens fighting, you are completely wrong. He talks to talk. I watch literally every MMA show possible (thats legit) but i dont hear any talk about womens MMA fighting that is disrespectful. True MMA fans watch every single fight, women or men. The talk about womens fighting isnt disrespectful, its warranted. The talk about the heavyweight division being a joke, nobody is crying, because its warranted. Stop sounding political, Ariel. Dont push a narrative that is not true. You do a great job, youre the best journalist. Keep working harder than any other journalist!
As someone who said he should be out the rankings if the doesn’t wanna fight down, I fully respect DP for taking the BSD fight, because it’s way further down the rankings than he needed to go
He simultaneously ducked arman and beneil
@@LakeNonaFan true, but now there’s more risk for less reward- It was a little cherry picked, but I respect that he’s at least fighting down and risking his rank. Beneil probably deserves an easier fight rn and arman bypassed Dustin- all works out in the end……..
The amount of loaded questions by Ariel is crazy.
Rampage a legitimate legend, the guy who got me into the sport. Super funny, always aware of his place in the sport. Warms my heart to see him looking great still. Him and Ariel are always money together
Rampage was such a beast. He demolished prime Lidell. Insane
Lets goo dustin!!!
I was hoping this fight between Halloway and Poirier would have never happened I like both guys the are good fighters and they respect their opponents.
“Feel it in my plums” great reference
Let the boy watch ……
My wife's 44th birthday is March 15. I can't wait to get her a card wishing her a very happy Dustin Poirier Day
Beware the ides of march!
Maury Povich be like "you are NOT the ..."
Yknow. Just saying
The Diamond 🔹
Let's go DP, 💎💎💎 forever!
Dustin is super dangerous, don't sleep on him. There is a reason Justin didn't necessarily wanna fight him again.
Probably because he kicked his head off
This is the correct fight. If Dustin wins and doesn't ask for the title shot...
da legendary 💎💎💎 Dustin Poirier one of da all time goats
Congrats on the foundation Dustin
I hope he got paid! Great fights! Good dude! Great interview!
they wanted to put Dustin on the 300 prelims
Finally clearing up the log jam at 155. The division needs this fight.
Dude was forced to stop trying to duck the up and comers
Dustin my favorite fighter of all time
I like Poirier's mentality a lot. Much more than a guy like Conor McGregor.
Thing with BSD is that he has that French dog mentality (I'm French) of "I'm doing everything possible in the cage to win even dying/getting KOed because it's about honor". That's what makes him dangerous. He's not the youngest or the most technical, but he is determined af.
Dp is the man! What a fighter!!!
Idky for my second favorite fighter, I don’t get nervous to see Dustin fight he’s a dawg.
Poirier Saint Denis ! Louisiana France stand up!
Dustin Poirier is the man! A true legend 👏👏👏👏🫡💎
Yea Dustin is a real one
No way Max beats Gaethje. That's crazy Dustin is saying that. Max gets hit a lot and he hasn't been hit by people that hit like Gaethje very often. Big, heavy damage. Max will get stopped.
Islam is driving me crazy as a champ. Fighting once a year and Volk twice. Freaking sucks when there’s so many fun American fighters knocking on the doorstep
Stop hating. What other champion is fighting more than him? Only Volk, Adesanya and Usman are the most active fighters probably in ufc history too. 2 fights a year is decent for champ. Islam will fight 2 times this year. Plus you don’t know how famous Islam is in the Muslim world. He gets invites to all these Muslim countries all the time just like Khabib did. That’s why he wasn’t so active. Volk, Izzy and Usman don’t have that so they have nothing else to do so they stay active to make money
He fought Oliveira in October, Volk in February, and then Volk in October again right? So that's... three fights in 13 months? I didn't even think that was a bad thing... but it's driving you crazy?
@ryanmccarthy8652 so basically being popular amongst Muslims excuses lack of activity and strength of schedule
@@tjr1438what you talking about lack of activity again.? Is he less active than other champs ? Reason I gave that example is why he could not be super active like Volk Izzy but he’s fighting 2 times a year is acceptable by ufc standards. You could criticise leon Edwards tho who nobody knows about but still isn’t fighting. Took him a year to fight Colby .
@@tjr1438and strength of schedule? Your a joke dude
