Dustin Poirier

Dustin Poirier is a legendary fighter and one of the brightest representatives of the golden age of the UFC lightweight division. His career is full of brilliant victories, and in recent years, he has fought exclusively with the best (it was Porier who sent Conor McGregor into retirement, from which the latter is unsuccessfully trying to return).

Poirier is a tough boxer who can fight very well (remember that it was his guillotine that Khabib Nurmagomedov once called the toughest of his career). Dustin moves brilliantly and throws powerful punches, but his most important weapon is his character, resilience, and will to win. If he gets knocked down for two or three rounds in a row, it doesn't mean he's done; he'll still get up and fight until he's finished or wins.

Poirier lost his last fight - he was knocked out by Justin Gaethje last July.

Benoit St. Denis

Benoit Saint-Denis is the new hope of French MMA. He is a versatile and tough fighter. All his wins have come early in his career, with only one loss in his UFC debut to Elizeu Zaleski.

Benoit St. Denis knocked out Matt Frevola in his last fight with a leg kick.

Expert Betting Tips

Dustin Poirier's colossal experience allows him to make up for what he loses with age (although he is 35 with the right attitude — what the hell is age?). It's been seven months since his last loss, so he's had time to think, heal injuries, and recover. When someone like Poirier agrees to fight, it means he's confident he's 100% ready.

They say the Frenchman's forte is wrestling, but who did St. Denis wrestle? Ismael Bonfim? Don't be ridiculous. Who tested him in the parterre for five rounds, for one second? It's not a fact that Saint-Denis will be better on the ground than Poirier. Most likely, the fight will take place on the feet, and whoever is stronger will win. Both will miss, but as usual, the deciding factor will be Poirier's double and low kicks and his indestructible spirit.
