Poirier: I would beat Gaethje and Chandler if they fought me in the same manner as at UFC 268

UFC lightweight contender Dustin Poirier shared his opinion about the fight between Justin Gaethje and Michael Chandler.

“I watched their fight, it was fun,” Poirier told The MMA Hour. – What can I say? Such fights are bad for you. It’s crazy to take that kind of damage. I would beat any of them if they fought the same style against me. You can’t count on a belt with that style, you have to be more technical, more focused, you have to be a thinking fighter, not just shove forward.”

On November 7, Gaethje defeated Chandler via unanimous decision at UFC 268. Poirier will face Charles Oliveira on December 11 at UFC 269.
