Dustin Poirier competes for the final time at UFC 318, and while the fan favorite is hanging up his gloves there’s a few up-and-comers fighting on the prelims.

In the main event, Max Holloway and Dustin Poirier collide for the third time, this time for the ‘BMF’ title. The last fighter from Season 8 of the Contender Series to make his debut is Islam Dulatov,

They then met for the lightweight interim belt in 2019, when Poirier had already gone on a run at lightweight and Holloway had gone up a weight class on short notice. Now, they are both true lightweights who have achieved more than enough for their legacies to be cemented in this game.
