Summary

UFC 318 goes down in just 24 hours, headlined by a ‘BMF’ title fight between Max Holloway and Dustin Poirier, in Poirier’s backyard of New Orleans. Most importantly though, this will be the final fight of Poirier’s illustrious career, and while \ “The Diamond” has won both of their previous matchups, Holloway is the favorite heading into this trilogy fight looking to spoil the party. UFC 318 goes down on Saturday night, and ahead of this marquee pay-per-view event, MMA Fighting’s Jed Meshew and Alexander K. Lee preview the fight card, break down the legacy of Dustin Poirier, and dive into the rest of the main card and undercard action, including the co-main event between Paulo Costa and Roman Kopylov, the feature bout between Kevin Holland and Daniel Rodriguez, the featherweight scrap between Dan Ige and Patricio Pitbull, and more.
