(Editor’s note: This post originally stated the video posted by UFC Russia was from UFC 281 fight week. It was actually from UFC 257 fight week in January 2021. The post has been changed to reflect this.)
The last time we saw Dustin Poirier and Michael Chandler within close proximity of each other at a UFC event, things were so heated that they had to be separated by security as they cussed up a storm at each other.
On Monday, the UFC Russia Instagram account shared a video of Poirier (28-7 MMA, 20-6 UFC) and Chandler (23-7 MMA, 2-2 UFC) crossing paths for the first time at UFC 257 in January 2021, which was cool to look back on. Poirier had a little fun by faking a takedown, and then they shook hands and hugged it out.
