 | Mixed Martial Artish Staff February 2 | Just hours after posting that his announced fight with Benoit Saint-Denis was off, having never actually agreed to it, Dustin Poirier was forced to return with his tail between his legs to announce that it was now going forth after the lightweight completely folded just because the UFC met the demands he was making for the bout. In a move the MMA community agrees clearly shows Poirier is afraid of Saint-Denis, the former title-challenger threatened to withhold his labor only to completely abandon the idea when the UFC capitulated to his requirements in a real soft move on his part. Let this be a lesson to fighters throughout the organization -- using the leverage you hold to the fullest extent possible will get you mocked by strangers online, so is it really worth it or wouldn't you be better served just taking whatever the UFC is willing to give? | | | |
