Poirier had his final fight on Saturday night in New Orleans, in the lightweight main event of UFC 318—a card that was built for him. His opponent was Max Holloway, a former featherweight champion he had beaten twice before, and on paper, had all the skills to beat again.

Dustin Poirier will receive a hero's welcome in his native Louisiana at UFC 318 when he battles Max Holloway for a third time in their careers. It's a respect Poirier earned from his peers and the promotion that they would take a PPV event to New Orleans for the first time in 25 years as a proper send off to one of the good guys in the sport's history.

Before Makhachev broke hearts against Poirier last year, both Khabib Nurmagomedov and Charles Oliveira forced taps from ‘The Diamond’. But when it comes to the ‘The Eagle’, Poirier is far from the only man to fall to his unstoppable arsenal.

The BMF belt is on the line during this ultimate trilogy fight. Check the UFC odds for our Holloway-Poirier 3 prediction and pick.

Poirier first bested Holloway in 2012 when the two men were still featherweights before he also gave "Blessed" a rude welcome to lightweight at UFC 236, where Poirier claimed the interim UFC lightweight belt via unanimous decision.
