#UFC #UFC291 - Sport
Dustin is a real warrior. Respect to both fighters. This is a sport.
JAN WAS ROBBED EVERYONE KNOWS IT
It is indeed a sport
we live in a society
Damn I feel bad for him he’s a good person met him Ufc 287 good person hard to see him loose but the same for Justin there both warriors
Is normal
Dustin wears his heart on his sleeve and I love it. Fans can relate to his raw emotion, we’ve all been there in life, invested so much into something and it comes up short or we fail. It’s all about how many times we can get back up off the canvas. Thanks for sharing your journey with us and being real 💎
True ! But it isn’t the first time he has “come up short” there comes a point where fans must acknowledge that no matter if the “heart is on his sleeve” or he give it everything, that the fighter simply isn’t a champion.
Facts.
Thanks, too, I can never hear that truth enough, so I can always always use hearing it one more time bro...👍
@@DavidLopez-wr3xs That’s not what this statement was about.
@@DavidLopez-wr3xsthe guy has one of the best lightweight resumes of all time, belt or no belt. That aside, this post has nothing to do with winning or losing
JAN WAS ROBBED EVERYONE KNOWS IT
Love this dude....never makes excuses
Justin should have landed atleast 10 hammer fists.

JAN WAS ROBBED EVERYONE KNOWS IT
There aren't many men like Dustin in this world. He is always respectable regardless of the situation.
unless he wins
Yeah man he has such a great character
No he isn’t he’s arrogant
He isn’t always respectable. He just wears his heart on his sleeve
Likewise when he was a sore loser it was hard to like him, the fake nice guy act
An absolute legend and role model in and out the cage! Respect, you’re one of the best to ever do it Dustin
Legend 😂
Well said....
Meh! I find him unlikable idk why but I just get bad vibes off him? I don’t believe he’s what he makes himself out to be…
@@NikkiNoo86 fair enough mate, i respect you're honesty and you're opinion on him. Not everyones cup of tea
@@sjc3139 respect right back at you brother… I neglected to say that he is a hell of a fighter, I can’t say he’s not a great fighter… just something about him doesn’t sit right with me…
Everybody really needs to appreciate Dustin, he always puts it’s on the line
Dustin is a real example of what it is to be a competitor. Win or lose he has respect and is honest . You have to root for him. ❤
Nothing but respect for Dustin
heartbroken for Dustin. I really like Gaethje so im happy for him, but Poirier is my absolute favorite. He always bounces back really strong so im excited for the next one
Massive respect for Dustin 🙏
Such a humble guy hes a real champion too what a great example of heart and wll this is amazing for the young generation that look up to him like myself
Real champions hold real belts
@@stevep250Belts don’t make someone the most skilled.
@@ryandavis8658Sadly it does in MMA
@@ryandavis8658 Right. But even then someone like Dustin has never been the most skilled fighter in his division.
@@yonizo2 Um of course he has! 😂 DP is top 5 in skill in the entire UFC!
Its really sad to see Dustin losing like that 😢
Dustin is one of the greatest examples in the sport and the reason I still believe that good people do exist.
Always classy. Always a warrior. Always a champ! Bravo!
Nothing but respect for Dustin Poirier
He seems to be really sharp right now. No idea how he isn’t concussed after that. Hoping he bounces back in a big way!!
He is concussed. You’re not KO’ed for lack of air. He had a concussion. It doesn’t mean he can’t be rational afterwards.
Wym he’s not concussed? He literally folded! That’s the definition of being concussed and then took a hammer fist as well
His arm blocked what could have been one, lol.
I've been concussed multiple times and I could hold a conversation afterwards, but my pupils looked like I ate a handful of shrooms lol. Homie rubbing his eyes for a reason.
JAN WAS ROBBED EVERYONE KNOWS IT
One of the reasons why Dustin is loved is he never makes excuses on why he lost a fight. He takes it on the chin and takes the loss like a man. Reevaluates his mistakes and learns from them. He'll be back witha W next time
He looked good. Got caught. Is what it is. That's the fight game.
I don't love him. He's slime to me.
@@TransformersTalkRAWwell you don’t even exist to him, if that helps
The whole fight I was rooting for Gaethje. As soon as he KOed him I was so sad for Dustin. Damn they both are legend of the sport hate to see one of them falling down
For one to rise one must fall it is what it is sadly, especially when these two are put against each other 😭 wish both of ‘em somehow got a dub lmao
Gaethje was dipping so hard when Dustin was throwing body kicks ...it could've been either one of them getting Ko'ed..luckily Justin hid that kick very well ...if not it could've been lights out for him too ...both great fighters ..legends of the game 👏👏👏
He’s a champion. Has been and always will be. Truly a phenomenon , the 💎
hes not a champion. Keep it real man. Hes never been the best in his weight class at any time...always 1 or 2 guys above him.
Dustin deals with losses so much more admirably then he does with wins at times.
That's why he loses.. he should be angry and improve
@@Brett_Bond lmao
You show your true character when on top of the world
Talk ish when he wins and crys when he loses
Not really, if getting angry at someone for cheating makes you a sore winner then so be it
Was rooting for Justin, but after seeing this I feel genuinely disappointed that either of them had to lose. Both amazing fighters with respectful personalities. Dustin is still one of the best lightweights to ever do it. Hope I get to see him fight a few more time before he retires!
Agreed. I’ll also add that they’re both very real, speak their mind and are honest. Not trying to put on a fake persona. They answer questions honestly and are actually vulnerable with how honest and open they are.
I wanted Gaethje to win but I'd love to see a longer fight.
Its one if these fights if your a ufc purest you can't wish either of these guys lose. But you can vote for one to win.
@@cody123mccluskeyTbh for all the bad things Dustin said to Conor after his leg break he deserved to get knocked out like this. He bought into his own hype calling himself the toughest fighter in the UFC when people were saying Justin was the toughest in the pre fight build up. I still remember Dustin saying not Mcgregor fast Mcgregor sleep, how the tables have turned with Dustin being knocked out cold by a guy who rarely throws high kicks😂🤦
imagine how badly dustin would have cried losing to conor in the third match
Huge respect for that guy
what a legend. mad love for both him and justin
Dustin you’re my favorite fighter keep your head up, and like you said you’ve already won. Look what you did for your family and other peoples families. The world needs more people like you.💯
Even though the KO looked bad, i don't think he was KOed that badly. Excellent stoppage by Herb Dean, he came in clutch with the people's elbow. Dustin chin is still solid
Yeah the ref savaged him from a few hard unnecessary hits. He was out no reason in beating him up further, he also got back on his feet on his own. This was just the perfect hit, it happens to the best and it's always more exciting to see than a submission hold.
Herb Dean with that sick slide in stoppage
I LOVE THIS GUY! Always honorable, always human, always victorious! It's so rare these days.
Mcgregor Fast? Poirier sIeep
Hell yea it was a great shot he didn't see it no big deal it sucks dustin wins that fight 9 out of 10
He tried to fight an innocent man with a sign
@@beauaIIoevv it's rather an off-topic statement ... there's no question of Conor here, it's about being a man of honor, not afraid of his human qualities, not afraid of tears, the kind who goes out to reporters after a knockout and saying how he feels... YOU NEED REAL BALLS FOR THIS... he's a real BMF
@@peeramok he's a Bait hater answering everyone who shows mild compassion for Poirier, don't mind him. He prolly lacks fatherly love
You can always tell the character of an individual by how they take loss. And Dustin is a hell of an example for us all. Dustin you’re the man!!
Dustin's Legacy is already stellar:
Dedicated Father
Philanthropist
Hometown hero
Your favorite fighter's favorite fighter's favorite fighter
One of the most elite gunslinger in the wildest and most stacked time at 155;
The man who conquered his demons and snapped the Macgregor hype train in his trilogy fights;
The small town kid who grew up to become an admirable, secure and genuinely noble man;
The true blue fighter, the dog who battled in the trenches and worked hard for every inch and every mile of progress he earned
The guy who proved nice guys can succeed and set an example of how a fighter ought to conduct himself, namely, with honesty, decency, self-respect, humility and Integrity
I loterally thought that Dustin will shatter him with that high kick in the 2nd and how the tables turned 😢 love you Dustin ❤
I literally called in between rounds that Dustin was gonna catch him like Leon if he keep blocking body kicks like that. The opposite happened😂😂
My absolute favorite fighter in the ufc. That's a man of class
Love Dustin's humble attitude. Massive respect
Heart of a champion.
Mind of a real man .
DP will never stop growing in this sport.
Always liked Dustin's fighting style with his kill or be killed attitude.
This interview just shows the class this guy has in and out of the cage,
and how much this sport means to him. Great guy
Dustin is such a man, he's become one my fav fighters of all time the career he's had
I have tremendous respect for this man. He’s mature and he sees the bigger picture. He’s about family and his fellow man.
Dustin is a top fighter and a genuine top guy. I’d love to shake his hand and thank him for his sacrifices to give us great fights. Much respect Dustin 💪🏻
Bro you can’t hate this guy. What a class act on how to take a loss. His growth from featherweight to now is nothing short of motivational. I know he still has that dog in him so I can’t wait to see his next fight!
These two are my favourite current fighters.
I admire both Justin and Dustin so much, and this is as bittersweet of a fight as it can be.
I hope the rematch is for the Undisputed belt, gl to both of them, Gaethje is a monster, great W on his resume.
no1 gaf
Justin would get choked or slept by Islam and Charles so I really doubt it
@@beauaIIoevv what a cute lil hater u are
@@INK-MONO both can be beaten. Not the highest of chances, but it's possible
@@beauaIIoevvbros gay
Respect for doing the interview even after getting knocked-out. He looks pretty composed considering what just happened to him. Some people tonight lost via submission and couldn’t even give their fans an interview…
Dustin is such a warrior and has such a great mindset props to him he is a huge inspiration to me and many others around the world
MUCH LOVE TO DUSTIN PORRIER ❤
I've seen him competing on his early days from WEC, and I hate it seeing him losing to Conor on his first fight but now Porrier is a different fighter... more mature and well rounded.
So much respect for this great fighter! Both of these guys represent the sport with class! Thank you!
I love dustin, whether he win or lose. This guy is a true walking diamond
Man such a good guy he works so hard sucks to see him like that keep your head up Dustin, your an amazing fighter
Interviewer did a respectful job here...love this interview
Actually a good point by the reporter, Dustin’s best bet is Justin winning the belt and then Dustin getting a rematch against Gaethje
Alot of people can learn a heck of a lot from Dustin!!! He’s honest
Respect this guy peeps. Dignified in loss, true inspiration and still a beast 👍
Dustin is a lovable human being character we don't want him to lose❤
I'm devastated for Dustin.
Eu irei te ver ainda com o cinturão do UFC, merece muito ❤🇧🇷
Head up and keep moving on Dustin ! Great Fighter and Father ! God bless !
I am just grateful, he is good now, and will be better Inshallah.
In this sport you can both feel low and high at the same time. It's crazy. Dustin embraced it like a CHAMP! You have already learned the respect by many! So, keep your head up CHAMP!
Man always gives interviews right after losing 💎
Says all normies need to know about his character. Gives Justin respect, no excuses, and always b ounces back with a win streak. He's still BMF material. Hard road. Bought n paid for.
Love Dustin man... Hope ge comes back strong
Didn't see it but still had hand in right position, high level man, could go any way, Let's just appreciate it, Thank you 🙏 so much, What a sport
All good! Trilogy! Let’s go!!!
Dustin is amazing. Dude does more uplifting on a loss than a win. It's incredible. What a father. Definitely a role model for the younger generation and all of us combined. He makes me want kick in the door for any challenge ahead.
Love you brother, win or lose you've won life. That's a great approach ❤
I look up to you man, you both deserved to win 🙏
Damn it!!! I couldn’t get enough of watching your movement in there last night Dustin. Was like art man. Warrior. Respect brother.
DUSTIN, YOU'RE STILL MY FAVORITE FIGHTER. YOU CAN REBOUND FROM THIS MY DUDE. YOU'RE A BEAST. DON'T BEAT YOURSELF UP, THE FANS STILL LOVE YA.
Humble champ. So honest. We look up to you bro x no loss.
Nothing but admiration for both fighters real gentleman real warriors their both safe and able to go home to their families ❤
Ngl I used to always root against Dustin but tonight although he got KOd, I’m a fan of him now
I hope he comes back and redeems himself, I don’t have a kid but when he talked about his daughter and where he came from….. it did hit me sentimentally
That reporter asking about Dustin adjusting his shorts has obviously not watched his fights. That’s his thing and everybody knows it 😂
That’s from him street fighting if I’m not mistaken
@@jeremysmithers6119 that’s definitely some street fighting shit 😂
Love this dude we proud of ya no matter what ❤️⚜️
Dustin Poirier is a fighters fighter. Real pro, honorable man and a LW living legend. Will always root for him.
It’s such a class act. Who can hate this guy?
me
Belts are dustin kryptonite
He's got an IC.
@@Ranbuowsatrawarriarhahaha that’s like a participation trophy
@jcherry9308 a participation trophy that wraps around his waist. I understand what it represents.
Most definitely Dustin, you have won in everyone's eyes! As a fan you will always be one of the greatest of the greats !!!!! Super Style Dustin The Diamond !!!
Love how honest he is. When the guy asked him if he would like to fight upcoming fighters, he just says "not really" Not a long stupid explanation dancing the around the question
That hot sauce is kicking lol
People that say Dustin got humbled obviously don’t know him. He’s always been humbled, the only reason he talked shit to Chandler after the fight was because he felt he was dirty and had a fake persona.
Anybody saying Dustin got humbled is a mindless hater. Dustin is one of the most humble people in the UFC.
Dustin is a definition of a humbled fighter. Love him or hate him he’s got the respect from the fans.
Dude is a class act. One of my favorite fighters in the sport,
Man, seriously gutted for Dustin.. I'm a fan of both fighters,but wanted Dustin to win.
This man awesome ❤
How can you not love and respect this man
Love you Dustin, you’re the champ in my books
They're 1-1 now, so to me it's not all that bad. They're both very competitive combat athletes, and this time around Gaethje just came out on top.
Imagine Gaethje winning the undisputed title and them both fighting for this one
“But I keep coming back like pookie ya know, it keeps calling me, I can’t stop. So we’ll see what happens man, I might need another hit idk .”
Bro is a gem and warrior. Big ups to Justin and hope to see the diamond again soon 💎
Keep your head up high champ we all know what you are made of
And you will be back! Nothing but love and respect champ🏆💎
Respect to dustin he's a warrior never has had a boring fight this is the fight game keep your head up dustin you'll def bounce back 💎
DAM I WANTED HIM TO WIN SO BAD
One of my favorite fighters. Blue collar, family man. Down to earth and you can't help but love the guy.
Feeling Sad for Dustin but that was a wild knockout by Gaethje
Love this cat,no excuses move forward!Trust your struggles 💪🏻
He has lost now but he was the only one, who nearly choked out Khabib. Can't wait for their trilogy or just another Dustin fight.
Dustin🔥💪👊
Very personal answers from Dustin , very emotional.
Dustin is such a great and down to earth fighter!
You come back stronger man.
Each time he’s fighting for a belt man he looses or gets very nervous. I was going for him for the win but Justin caught him good with that leg kick. Fair play to Justin. I wish Dustin nothing but the best in his career, a true warrior.
Honorable in victory, honorable in defeat. DP baby!
Dustin is truly one of the greatest examples of one the greatest ufc fighters ever!!! Dustin your the man!!!
You gotta feel for Dustin man he’s so damn good and always gets so close to titles and just can’t get there he’s probably the best UFC fighter ever without getting a world title
Just a speed bump for Dustin. We don't make excuses but he got caught with a lucky shot and stuff happens. He'll take this and learn from it and be back better than ever. The goal hasn't changed and that is lightweight gold. Earned not given baby
mcgregor fast? poirier sIeep
Lucky shot 😂😂😂
Nothing lucky about It man
@@FreeEatscuh Justin said he never even practices that kick. He just spammed some random kick and got lucky. I'm not taking anything away from Justin though, he threw the hail Mary and it landed. Kind of flukey though because we all know Dustin is the better fighter. Dustin also had a rough weight cut and was dealing with some injuries so that wasn't even the real Dustin that lost
bro said lucky shot😂😂😂😂
Fu#% I used to not really like Poirier much, the last couple years I’ve become a huge fan, think he’s an absolutely incredible, top notch fighter…. He is really. *really* freakin good.
Disappointed to see it go down like this, the same way I was for Usman…. So many people feel like that’s what makes fighting so exciting, that one single move can literally decide the entire fight…. But I’d personally rather see an absolute clinic put on or a slugfest where the last man standing is truly the BMF. These Hail Mary knockouts don’t do it for me, I don’t think Gaethje proved he’s the better fighter or badder than Poirier at all.
But he won, he’s got the belt…. So it doesn’t matter. Just one person’s opinion.
💯. Dustin was on his way to pulling off another combo driven clinic, it’s so unfortunate
All class. Thank you brother.
