UFC 303 is all set to go live in the sin city of Las Vegas. The PPV event is headlined by Alex Pereira and Jamahal Hill in the octagon, along with many other spectacular matchups. The MMA world is geared up for the weekend. The promotion recently added one of the Lightweight greats to its broadcast team, which surprised everyone.
Dustin Poirier fought for the Lightweight title earlier this month, and many thought the former interim champion would take a few months off. But as it turns out, Poirier is back to the UFC grind, just not as a fighter this time.
Dustin Poirier: The MMA Analyst
Dustin Poirier gave the Lightweight champion and the pound-for-pound king, Islam Makhachev, the toughest fight of his career earlier this month in the main event of UFC 302. The Lightweight ace was supposed to recover from the massive damage he received, but as it turns out, the man cannot stay from MMA. It was revealed that the former title challenger will be taking on the role of an MMA analyst at UFC 303.
Dustin Poirier holds a record for scoring the fourth most UFC wins in history. He is one of the best strikers on the lightweight roster and one of the most efficient grapplers in the UFC. Many will agree that the Lightweight ace is qualified enough to be an analyst in the iconic event. The dream team, Joe Rogan, Jon Anik, and Daniel Cormier, will take on the commentating responsibilities.
The UFC 303 is set to be a banger, given that Poatan is taking on Jiri Prochazka in the cage. The bout will be an exciting battle between the duo as they heavily rely on their strikes.
