Dustin Poirier addresses never becoming undisputed UFC champion ahead of retirement fight
Dustin Poirier has no regrets about his tenure in the UFC and "wouldn't change anything" even if he could. Poirier recently opened up about never winning an undisputed UFC title and gave his opponents their flowers.
In an interview on the AGAINST THE CAGE podcast, 'The Diamond' talked about working his way up to title shots against worthy opponents and made it clear that he's proud of his achievements. He said:
"I did everything I could to become an undisputed champion. I put myself in positions multiple times to get my hand raised and win that belt in the UFC, and just fell short. Just got beat by really good guys, made mistakes, and it is what it is. That’s life, that’s my story. I wouldn't change anything; I'm proud of the work that I've put in. I'm proud of the things I've accomplished and the life that I've made."Why did you not like this content?
