UFC veteran Dustin Poirier boasts one of the most impressive resumes, with 30 professional wins. The 37-year-old American fighter has headlined multiple UFC pay-per-views and has fought for titles. However, Poirier recently admitted to the one bout that made him a star overnight.
On The Joe Rogan Experience, Poirier surprisingly lauded UFC’s biggest draw and his archrival, Conor McGregor.
Although “The Notorious” and “The Diamond” are currently no longer on the best of terms, Poirier believes it was his second fight with the Irishman that changed his recognition forever.
Poirier and McGregor first fought in 2014, when “The Notorious” knocked him out in the second minute of the opening stanza.
