Gutted for @TheNotoriousMMA but this is the UFC! Been great watching him in the build up all week and not gonna lie was just hoping to see him pull off another masterclass performance but it wasn’t to be! I believe he will be back and I for one can’t wait!

Watching @TheNotoriousMMA in his post fight press conference and he’s just so honest… No excuses no bravado just honesty and admiration for Poirier.. There is so many ways to lose in the Octagon and last night shows this after how the first fight went!
