The UFC reached out to Dustin Poirier. He accepted. He had a plane on standby and skipped a meal.
However, since this call, the UFC have not come back to Poirier.

Also, Nate is a being a bitch for still not taking the fight since he missed weight by over 5 lbs against RDA and that fight still took place.

Nate and rda are both 170/155'ers. They bulldozed nate into a fight with a 170/185'er. frick Dana. I hope Diaz is turning the screws on them. U know they are scrambling to fix this card so ppv doesn't crash and burn.

I know ariel is usually spot on but poirier wouldnt have been able to weigh in before the weigh in window was closed. I dont see how that would have worked.

I think at this point they can do a "catch weight" or whatever the frick to try and save the card - since there is no belt on the line

But you still have to weigh in officially. Ive never heard of them allowing a fighter to weigh in After the weigh in window closes.

fair enough I have no idea the rules on that
FWIW just saw Dana having press conference at 5pm CT (I think - he said 3pm) on ESPN/UFC Instagram to clear up the fight card
guess we will know for sure in a little bit

It’s official now - card reshuffle rumors are true :
Diaz v Ferguson
Chimaev v Holland
Li v Rodriguez
ETA: top two fights will be 5 rounds

Tony vs nate is gonna be legendary. Fuuuuuuck yeah

Dana say anything worthwhile other than the new lineup?
Posted on 9/9/22 at 5:28 pm to hashtag
Nope

All of this is really sketchy after reading one of the major Vegas sports books was staring down a 7 figure loss if Diaz was to beat Chimaev.

Why couldn't they just make diaz/Islam catch weight?
Posted on 9/9/22 at 5:44 pm to subotic

They said the Diaz camp wasn't having it...the whole situation is fricking strange.
