About the UFC Champion Dustin Poirier

Poirer attended Northside High School in his hometown, Louisiana, but he had to drop out early because he would be found showing his strength in street brawls. He started fighting professionally in local arenas in the state with a perfect 7 - 0 record in his debut. 

In 2010, he was noticed by World Extreme Cagefighting and it seemingly led him to take part in the UFC. His neat moves and sparkling new techniques made him an overnight success and he was admired by fans all over the world. 

“The things I do, I just do 100 percent," he said when a fan asked him to tell the secret to his performance. "I put my heart and soul into fighting. It’s my passion, and I’m bleeding and sweating every single day. That’s how bad I want to be the best.”

The Louisiana-born champion went on to achieve impressive wins against top contenders in the industries, including Anthony Pettis, Conor McGregor, and Dan Hooker, to name a few.
