American UFC fighter Dustin Poirier injured his ribs two weeks before the fight against the Russian Islam Makhacheva said ex-combatant Yves Edwards.
Makhachev defeated Dustin Poirier on Saturday at UFC 302 in the United States. The Russian won by fifth-round submission and retained the UFC championship belt.
“I was very impressed by Poirier’s performance on Saturday night. No one knows, and they’ll probably say, “Why did you post this?” I know Makhachev wasn’t 100% ready either. “Nobody goes into a fight 100 percent, but Dustin hurt his ribs two weeks before the fight and didn’t do any wrestling or grappling,” Edwards told MMA Today.
