Fighter vs. Writer: Alan Jouban Explains Why Dustin Poirier Should Retire, Reacts to UFC 303 Presser Cancellation
Manage episode 421901617 series 2491844
The Fighter vs. The Writer returns with UFC analyst Alan Jouban joining MMA Fighting senior reporter Damon Martin to discuss the fallout from UFC 302 as well as reacting to the sudden cancellation for the UFC 303 press conference in Ireland.
Just hours before the press conference was scheduled to begin, UFC officials announced that the planned event in Ireland was no longer happening with McGregor later stating that “obstacles outside of our control” led to the cancellation.
Should fans be more concerned that something else is happening behind the scenes threatening the UFC 303 main event?
Plus, we’ll talk about Islam Makhachev’s fifth round submission win over Dustin Poirier and what should be next for him. Is Makhachev destined to become a two-division champion or should he stick around his own division for a little while longer?
Plus Jouban explains why he believes now is the right time for Poirier to call it a career and walk away from the sport following his fight with Makhachev on Saturday.
