Questions & Answers

Dustin Poirier
"The Diamond"
  • When and why did you start training and fighting?  My first fight was in 2007. I was born a fighter. I started looking into boxing before I found that I could get MMA training in my hometown. I went one day to check it out and that was a wrap – I fell in love with the sport.
  • What ranks and titles do you have?  Former interim UFC lightweight champion. As an amateur I held two belts at 155lbs and I went 8-1. I actually won an 8 man tournament as an amateur in Iowa over the course of 2 days.  As a pro I held three belts at 155lbs. I beat up everyone in my trailer park as well. Black Belt in jiu-jitsu. Also, I have a black belt in Rex Kwon Do and am the current and defending 3x thumb wrestling Champion of the world.
  • Do you have any heroes?  Baby Jesus and the grown up one too. 
  • What is your favorite technique?  Neck chops probably.
  • What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC?  This means everything to me and this is where I want to be. It’s where the most talented mixed martial artists showcase their skills and I think I belong here. I'm excited and I will start my climb of the featherweight division.
  • Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn?  I got a Doctorate from the school of hard knocks.
  • TRAINING:  Wake up determined. Go to bed satisfied.
