When Bisping met Poirier: Dustin on UFC 269, Legacy, Oliveira and Conor McGregor

[@Amzyy]

@@jamespratt7627 He does talk a bit too much in commentary but he's not that bad

[@dschoenfeld9277]

He’s a very good commentator and fighter. However, he fought an old (45?) Dan Henderson and got battered but was in England so he won. After that he got choked out by a guy that was retired for years and moved up from 170 to 185. Next fight KO’d and retired. Overall good career but definitely not great.

[@PDaddy0120]

[@paolocalingasan5027]

I really appreciate Bisping's interview style. Most sport journalists usually ask a question and then follow up with their own theory as to what the answer of the question is, and then basically leave the athlete to say yes or no and do their best to explain further. Bisping really just gives a small reason he is asking the question, asks the question, then lets the fighter do the answering. At the end of the day, we really truly dont care about the journalists, we just wanna hear these fighters talk and bisping does a great job of enabling that to happen.

[@aychi9251]

I think the fighters tend to feel more comfortable with him as well, there's that mutual respect as fellow fighters. The understanding between them both is a really cool dynamic and makes for a great interview.

[@nikstah1232]

"Acts mature"

[@KingDomsKingdom85]

Dustin is one of my all time favourite fighters... sitting just behind the man interviewing him here. His attitude, his ability/style, his charity work and the way he carries himself as a human being are what have made me such a huge fan of Poirier.

[@garyorourke5503]

I agree bro. Deserves to be champion out of anyone on the UFC roster. A true warrior and holds himself as a classy champion. He will take what’s his on Saturday I’m sure of it ✌️

[@forevermarked5826]

Absolutely. Huge fan of the UFC and huge fan of Charles but Dustin is my fav for so many clear reasons. Absolute warrior and incredible human being. Same age as me but is my role model. He is the human I want to be like. Straight up. Dudes he needs this. This story needs to happen. I' got goosebumps even thinking about it

[@AHighlander]

Bisping's really settled into role well eh. As has Dustin as a matured veteran.

[@Isaharif]

Love Dustin's levelheadedness. He's just so sharp when he talks.

[@Batman-iu2iv]

Bisping and Poirier both fought against the crow most of their career. Both are decent people and family men. They are incredible athletes and deserving champions. A legend interviewing another legend. This is the MMA I love.

Brilliant interview. I especially appreciated what Poirier had to say about Oliveira here, he's moving in the right way, he knows his opponent is a worthy adversary.

[@jezebulls]

For sure. While he’s a small favorite and many are overlooking Oliveira, Dustin definitely isn’t and rightly so. I think Oliveira should be the favorite imo

[@Niki166]

@@anonymis6535 haha its possible but also unlikely 😄

[@melindakent1776]

This is a difficult one to choose because I appreciate both of the fighter's journeys to make it to this point. Olivera finally made it as the undisputed champion after a decade or so being in the UFC and being counted out many times. Dustin has been the interim champion, and was able to fight for the undisputed championship belt but came up short. He was able to avenge his loss to McGregor, and has just been so hardworking and determined. I'm down with Brazil because my favorite fighter is the Lioness but I think that I am going to go with Dustin to win. Let him taste being the undisputed champion. It was funny at the end how he said Season's Beatings instead of Season's Greetings!!

[@mateosmind751]

I like Charles as a person, and he is a great submission guy, but I don't think this one is close. Oliveira Kod in round 2.

[@SparkyTakedown]

Very well-said! Amanda is the GOAT, won and defends both belts successful consistently. Im gonna go with Charles on this one though. But I think it'll be close and then they will rematch. I think LW belt changes hands alot with thin this next year.

[@davidaldridge5716]

I’m similar in that I like Khabib...I like how he carries himself outside of fighting. But the way Dustin took the loss against Khabib won me over completely. He cares a lot and he’s a great human being. Couldn’t imagine rooting against him

Dustin 'my foot was a balloon' Poirier

[@Ar1AnX1x]

he's right tho, Oliveira is extremely well-rounded but he's very offensive and his defense is just bad and he almost has no head movement.(but he can just take people down instead of being defensively good in striking, he has that wrestling to fall back on.) if Oliveira's defense was good he's be a massive favorite imo

[@TomCL-vb6xc]

Dustin has a tendency to get into brawls as well, though. It’s such a hard fight to call.

[@kenzopeypers738]

When 2 good to great strikers i always favor the guy with fantastic ground technique in the back pocket. Poirier is a serious warrior but Oli is a bit more well rounded.

[@Ar1AnX1x]

@@kenzopeypers738 yeah Olives' the more well-rounded Striker/Fighter, Poirier is probably gonna have a really tough time in the first 3 rounds, getting kicked from range, having to check kicks and staying back while trying to get on the inside and counter, but it's tricky to get close to Oliveira because he has a great double leg. both of them can knock each other out.

[@madgavin7568]

If Oliveira had good striking defence he'd be favoured to beat anyone at 155 other than Makhachev.

[@asimaziz7298]

IMO, Charles won't be able to take Dustin down & his Takedown Defence will hold up. On the feet, Dustin's Boxing is too much to deal with.
