Literally every DP interview recently he’s been asked the same questions
You interview him then u soggy kid
He should just give up and not even fight because he's going to lose for sure right? Hell no even though this is 100% accurate he's going to go out on his sword good luck Dustin, it's going to be crazy to see how Islam absolutely smokes you though that's going to be something to talk about how throughout your whole career you've never been dominated quite like this before even against khabib
then don’t watch them
@cjgooding4512 You're gonna swallow your words
@@TravelGuide20 you picking Dustin Saturday night?
Dudes a legend
100%
This is Dustin's, Bispinggg moment
Come on Dustin 👊
Literally everytime I underestimate this man, he proves me wrong, so I refuse to make that same mistake again. Dustin is getting that belt on Saturday!
When did you underestimate him and he proved you wrong? Mcgregor? BSD? Hooker?
Please underestimate him then 🥺
Bro you are underestimating Islam now hahaha
@@swish52621I’m curious about this as well
@@swish52621The first two yeah, but not Hooker, I knew he'd beat him. Also underestimated him against Alvarez and Holloway.
Please win this one! you a legend for me sir!
I love this guy for all he does for his community. What a guy.
class act and hope he wins
I really hope he gets it done. And I hope we see Dustin vs Nathan
Lets go DP
I love this guy! 50k towards helping ppl. God Bless this man!
The world wants to see the story completed, let’s go Dustin!!!
This should be a great fight
*short fight 😆
It won’t be great. Islam will take him down, do some balls sniffing then it will be over.
Dustin Is a BEAST man
Cmmn Diamond, you can touch that gold
Let's go DP 💎
Let’s go Diamond 💎
Battle of the century
Dustin IS a good person!
If he doesn't jump a gilly, its not a dp fight.
If he doesnt adjust his shorts before jumping the gilly its not a DP fight either
ty
Please don’t retire
Wait the fight is already Saturday wtf
Triggers!!!
💎💎💎
hope he do a bisping
Really hope Dustin gets the title this time in fashion.
Future hall of famer
It'll be a great fight... regardless of the outcome...anybody willing to step in the cage, deserves all the respect...
This guy's a g. Probably the best boxer in UFC. Always a dog and always has exciting fights.
One last shot at the title for Dustin Poirier, will be an amazing match at UFC 302 against Islam Makachev.
💎
Dustin should work on avoiding take downs by his opponent
Hot Sauce!!
Let's Geaux DP ⚜️💎✨️✨️✨️🥊✊🏾⚡️!!! Team Poirier all day everyday 💯⚜️💎✨️
AND NEW!
Bruh out here recreation the messi storyline before the worldcup eh?
DP has the heart but the skill set is a different warfare wrong line up.
The Silly Gilly Dustin The 💎 Poirier
Back to school backpack drive for the win!💪🏻💪🏻 💪🏻 Fucking a Captain crunch I sure hope you're not correct with the meals per day bullshit though, that is sad!
I like where Dustin's mind seems to be at. Always rooting and yelling for my dog! LET'S GET IT DUSTIN!!!!💯❤⚜💥🔥⚡⚡☄🔥🔥
i believe in you dp, tko islam and you will be remembered forever😮🔥
Harty brother
Dustin’s winning I’m telling you guys.
Bring dat belt back to Da Boot Dustin!!
Poor poirier. He should have won gold by now. But he key going up against these monsters who have the belt. At least he's a real warrior though unlike Conor who won the belt from Eddie Alvarez
💎💎💎💎💎💎💎
Close don't count with hand grenades,etc what's the saying?
porier story will be elite if he pulls the upset especially if he get the gilly
He’s not going to win though but if he does I’ll be happy as an american
It’s his 5th title fight lol not his 3rd
islam khabib holloway ? who else
@@simonmasson-dupras3946 Holloway was his first khabib was his second Charles was his 3rd Gaethje was his fourth (BMF belt) and Islam will be his fifth
I know it's your job and how you get money to live, but you have to be creative with your questions. Journalists in every interview repeat the same questions.
What's more likely is that Islam will defend his title against the best 145er, which he's already done at this point twice. Then he will defend his title at 155 a few times which he's going to be doing that June 1st against Dustin
Stop mentioning pressure to dustin ffs!!! Let him do his thing I hate these interview questions. Zero imagination
Islam will not trade punches with dustin, thats fooolish
In the pocket no, but he'll land better kicks and knees. Dustin's only chance of winning this in my opinion is by forcing a dirty boxing close-range fight at some point but I believe Islam's too calculated to play into his hand with that
He is gonna clip dp while going backwards and that's gonna cause problems cause dp to struggle in the striking then comes the wrestling!
Also the opposite could totally happen and dustin straight up exchanges with him in range and knocks him out since u know it's mma 🤣
He looks smaller
Tate vs Poirier
It’s not exciting to watch a striker and a grappler. It always goes like this; crotch sniff against the cage and hold you there.
Not a shot
GAMROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT
It's good to see some still believing in Dustin but Islam is the guy and the winner 🏆
He wasn’t close to $hittt he couldn’t be Khabib at anytime not even today
Why do Islam haters bring up the fact that he got knocked out once in his career as a reason why Dustin can win, where as Dustin got knocked out 3 times?
Dp is going to get finished in the first or second rd.
Carrying the card?! Lol. They're really not fans of Makhachev
Sam Oates bideford and demi the dog
2 times against the pfp 1 khabib and now islam legend
One of the best to never win the undisputed championship
saya pendukung islam tapi saya juga suka dengan dustin , apalagi dia juga bisa mengalahkan si idiot mcchicken ituh
I just have a feeling he won’t win, I just think there are levels and Dustin ain’t that like Islam khabib etc ❤
I'm in a dilemma, I like DP, but I don't want Islam to get knocked out
You can’t knock Islam out dude😂🤣😂🤣😂
Dustin or Arman will do that dude 😂😂😂😂😂😂
ISLAM'S ALREADY BEEN KNOCKED OUT U GOOFY!!!!
Dustin is going to retire after isam tap him out and conor going to retire after Michael KO him
Lets go Dustin , Islam will do it again 😂 Why he didnt fight for BMF ?
Islam evolved to a point where he stands as a living embodiment of the definition of 'comprehensive fighter'. It will be a great fight, sure no doubt! But, Islam will navigate through it smoothly...
ISLAM has all 3 basic skills of striking wrestling grappling amd he has the potential of bring an GOAT
DUSTIN POIRIER FOR SHURE GREAT MMA STAR BUT ISLAM MAKHACHEV COMPLETELY DIFFERENT LEVEL IN THE PLANET GUYS I THINK ISLAM MAKHACHEV WILL BECOME THREE DIVISION WORLD CHAMP HE IS VERY TECHNICAL POWERFUL SMART THE BEST MMA SUPER STAR
That would be amazing 3 belts! He could potentially do it but I don't know that it can be done they will have to to give him certain fights I don't see him cutting lower than 155 that's for sure
Ok enough of kissing azzz.. Dustin or Arman will get the job done.. by end of this year Islam gonna loose his belt
I can see him winning the welterweight weight but damn bro there is no way makachev is getting anywhere near that mw belt!
@@sanket4u008 anything can happen but both Dustin and arman gonna get their ass beat if we look stylistically
@@user-zg7cf4bs4v azz beat? The guy who struggled to win against volk? First go to Wikipedia n check Islam’s n khabibs knock out numbers.. these guys only win by grappling n submission not via tkos they have like 15% wins via tko while Dustin Justin Connor n many others who fight like men with their fists have 30-50% tko win numbers in their profile sure Islam gonna win by that boring monkey wrestling game right ask him to tko someone and he’ll get tkoed by avg guy like bobby green lol
Dustin will lose he cried like a baby when Khabib beat him.
I'm not going to buy this fight because I think/know Dustin will get demolished. Just kidding fuckers definitely going to be watching this one. Dustin is great, but Islam it's dagestan's time khabib could have done it but he quit early on that retirement so now it's Islam's turn. You guys have to understand the dedication and everything that dagostinians have been through we're going to see double champ status greatness of all time talk type of thing is my hope for Islam.
This guy does a lot of interviews every time he looses. Keep it sharp Dustin, work your ass off and stop talking about the what if. Islam doesn’t care
In stand up dustin win
Grapling is problem
volk lost in standup!
@@haidaralhumaidialshumari868 second fight with 10 day preparation
@@Ard__926he lost first round not even being tired yet. Islam is a problem standing up
Lemme tell something for ya guys for those of who are not willing to accept the skill set of Islam, Islam's perfection in taekwondo, Russian sambo and his simple but extraordinary defence makes him a problem against anyone in the stand up, he is the less hit active fighter rn
You got it son. The dag squeeze is no joke
If drake bets on Islam I'm putting my house on dustin
he washed
He will retire for sure, that is why it's daughter will be there
Perfect world Islam dominates Dustin, dominates sarokian, ilea tempora tries to move up and gets knocked out by Islam. Then Islam moves up to 170 and defeats Leon Edwards and a if belal is champ at that point I don't know, but Islam has tapped him easy in practice I know things have changed since then but still...
Islam would get a title opportunity at 170lbs before Ilia even sniffs a chance at 155
Don't jump the gilly bro, just don't.
Head says ISLAM and Heart also says ISLAM MAKACHEV ❤❤❤❤
ISLAM has the potential to be rhe GOAT if he continues winning
@@msf5792 he not winning this time
Washed up
Dustin must avoid take down from Islam.
Islam for the win..
this guy chokes everytime he's in a title fight
Dustin is 35, 35+ fighters are 1 : 23 in title fights at 170 lbs and under.
Dustin will lose; end of story.
Gsp?
@@jamesinhenley Woodley(36) vs. Till(25)
Yes but the Paulo Costa curse negates the 35+ curse
@@Ok_ruin
I wish, but the 35+ "curse" is not a curse but a biological fact.
The Costa curse may be true, but Volkanovski and Usman would have lost even if Costa hadn't been on the card.
Costa curse:
UFC 298: Volkanovski(35) loses to Topuria(27)
UFC 278: Usman(35) loses to Edwards(30)
UFC 241: Cormier loses to Miocic
UFC 226: Miocic loses to Cormier
UFC 217: Bisping, Garbrandt, & Jedrzejczyk all lose
UFC 212: Aldo loses to Holloway
@@user-pr8ch6we5z cheers
This is a waste of fight. Why have him fight islam. He has no chance
My favorite fighter but islam is to well rounded. His striking is on par with Dustin and his wrestling is by far better.
Dustin can't win the big one
By knock and new baby islam is boring
Islam is nothing like a boring fighter lmao, hard to accept a Muslim fighter is dominating the sport, and I'm not even a Muslim
Mohamed mokaev is boring. Islam finishes his fights and is exciting
Islam by however he wants ☝🏻
Not Gona happen. Islam will remain the King of lightweight 🔥
Dustin is great guy but Islam will destroy you.. Easy win for team Khabib..
He's going to get finished by round 2
