UFC star Dustin Poirier has brushed aside the notion that he will be facing Nate Diaz at UFC 300.
Dustin Poirier is a famous name in the Ultimate Fighting Championship bearing in mind his longevity and fights against Conor McGregor.
The veteran is gearing up for a return to the Octagon after getting knocked out by Justin Gaethje last year.
‘The Diamond’ seemingly has a few opponents in mind but he has his eyes set on being part of the UFC 300 card.
The historic event will take place on April 13 in Las Vegas and, as you can imagine, everyone will be keen on being part of the event.
However, Poirier won’t face Nate Diaz despite the rumours.
Fan: “@DustinPoirier Champ – are you gonna face Nate on the UFC 300 card?? It’s January – give us a name!”
Poirier: “No it ain’t happening”
The duo were set to clash at the UFC 230, which was held over five years ago. Diaz has always been vocal as far as his opinion on the former interim champ is concerned and it was always expected that they would be involved in a face-off one way or another.
But that hasn’t materialised and it doesn’t look like Dustin is too interested in changing that.
