Holloway included. Poirier won the interim light belt by defeating Holloway in April 2019, but failed to combine it successfully, losing to Khabib Nurmagomedov in his next bout. Diamond has a professional MMA record of 28-6 with no competition, including 14 wins by KO / TKO and seven wins by submission. Poirier is a South Pow striker who can do all this inside Octagon. He is regarded as a very well-mixed martial artist and is currently ranked No. 5 on the UFC's Pound for Pound list. Interestingly, The Diamond is ranked higher than Oliveira, who is ranked eighth. According to the UFC, Dustin Poir has a significant striking accuracy of 50% and a significant striking defense of 54%. The question arises as to whether he will actually be able to achieve 170.?
