Dustin Poirier maintained his track record of never losing two fights in a row Saturday when he defeated Benoit Saint Denis in the UFC 299 co-main event.
Poirier (30-8 MMA, 22-7 UFC) bounced back from his BMF title loss to Justin Gaethje in August with a violent second-round knockout of Saint Denis (13-2 MMA, 5-2 UFC) in their key lightweight bout at Kaseya Center in Miami.
Dana White heaped praise on “The Diamond” after delivering another Fight of the Night war, and with the 155-pound weight class in a curious state, Poirier is in line for something big.
