Fans are watching “Diamond” after Paddy Pinblett’s reaction to Dustin Poirier wants to retire, and after that he says he defeated the former interim lightweight champion in the fight.
Prior to Pinblett’s massive co-main event with Michael Chandler at UFC 314 in Miami on April 12th, “Buddy” spoke with UFC broadcasting partner ESPN and was asked about preparing for the final fight. Pinblet said Poirier “have to be a fool,” but Pinblet says it’s because the longtime veteran is extremely competitive with lightweight champion Islam Makhachev with his fifth submission loss at UFC 302 this June.
Plus, Pinblet ended his reaction by saying, “I think I defeated Dustin Poirier, so I want to fight him.” That fight could make a lot of sense in terms of merit, if Pinblett Handler Chandler did his third consecutive loss.
Judging from your reaction, you don’t seem to agree with Pinblett’s prediction for a potential fight with Poirier.
