In what was expected to be a battle royale if you will, between Lafayette's Dustin Poirer and Justin Gaethje as the Main Event for UFC 291, was anything but. Gaethje followed a right hand with a leg kick to Poirer's head and ended the fight just one minute into the 2nd round.
Poirier was a slight favorite at -150 in a rematch from their 2018 slugfest that Poirier won.
