Dustin Poirier turns up the heat and announces a fight in the UFC. The announcement is expected soon. ESPN journalists gave fans a valuable clue about the return date.
Dustin Poirier has been hinting for some time that we will learn details about his return to the UFC octagon in the near future. The experienced American fought his last professional bout in June at UFC 302 when he succumbed to Islam Makhachev in the fifth round of their fight for the lightweight belt.
So it’s been a long time since Poirier’s last fight, so it should come as no surprise that Diamond is preparing to return to competition. Yesterday Dustin posted a post on the X platform, in which he wrote:
– Information about the fight is coming.
The American’s post was referenced on Instagram by ESPN journalists. The editors delved into the statistics and accurately noted that if Poirier enters the octagon in 2025 it will be his fifteenth consecutive year fighting in the UFC.
It’s this valuable hint that should be followed, and fans should look forward to Dustin Poirier’s return at one of the first major, numbered PPV galas in 2025. None of the events have been announced yet, and it’s possible that the UFC will release extensive video content announcing the first 2025 events in the coming weeks.
