He won't ever be happy again. He'll never win the lw belt again. will never make a 7 digit salary again. and will be broke in 10 years. will probably end up committing suicide. Khabib is a dream crusher that's for sure.

Actually Made me a lot more of a fan of Dustin! Seems like a cool guy, I like the tiger stripe/bushido code one.
Dustin Poirier is one of the most exciting UFC fighters today, always has great matches, also is a humble respectful chill guy 👏👏👏👏🫡 thanks for having him on GQ 😊
Even his tattoos are like diamond cut finished....💥💥... Dustin the diamond....the inspiration...
I love when GQ interviews fighters!
Be always happy bro You are great ... Don't think about your loss❤❤❤ u are a legend😍😍

Growing up in Lafayette you’re gonna get in fights. Just what it is. Them boys like to settle things the old fashioned way. I lived on the south side and by the time I entered high school I had been in more fights than most people will experience in their entire lives. Repping the 337 like an absolute badass.

I'll never get a tattoo, just not my style for me, but it's interesting to understand the meanings and stories behind the fighters getting these.
I always say that people always go what do your tattoos mean and some times they do mean something.. but it’s more about when you got the tattoo you remember the times more so what u got
He broke all the curses, mad love.
Absaluley blew my mind what he did to Holloway on Saturday night.
Sick t-shirt, anybody know where i could find one?
Living legend
The tiger beats the tiger with the gorilla on it🗿
2:57 The blocks are a cover-up? Man I really love those, those blackwork-like blocks are very prominent on him. Also I didn't realize he filled the Louisiana outline, still kinda cool.
Blocks on the right arm next to the war mask are the coolest. Funny that the blocks were a cover up.
I had to Google "young Dustin Poirier" and he definitely had some terrible tattoos. Even one on his stomach that I'm assuming he got removed. Literally had the entire state of Louisiana on his left arm. Whoever did the coverups did an amazing job because now everything flows so well.
