Poirier Teases Final Trilogy Fight with Gaethje

News summary

Dustin Poirier, former interim UFC lightweight champion, is teasing a potential trilogy fight with Justin Gaethje, which could be his final bout before retirement. Poirier hinted at this matchup through cryptic social media posts, sparking fan excitement. Both fighters are 1-1 against each other, with Poirier winning their first encounter in 2018 and Gaethje avenging that loss at UFC 291 in 2023.

The potential fight has overshadowed other rumored opponents like Colby Covington, whom Poirier has dismissed as a contender.
