Former UFC Interim Lightweight Champions Justin Gaethje and Dustin Poirier each hold a victory over each other, with their series tied at 1-1.
Poirier is open to a third fight with the current BMF Champion and he’d like to have that bout happen at UFC 300.
“I would take that, for sure,” Poirier said to MMA Junkie. “For sure, I would take that fight. (UFC) 300 would be a great card to do it on, but we will see. If I was in Justin’s shoes, if he’s guaranteed a title shot, you might not want to risk it. But, hey, this is fighting. People get antsy. We’ll see what happens, but I’m definitely open to that.”
No fights have been announced for UFC 300 at this time, plus neither Poirier or Gaethje are booked for a fight at this time.
