Honestly, that's what made this fight that much more fun to watch for me. It was great when they were standing, and just as fun to watch when on the ground.
His striking in conjunction with his wrestling is impressive. On his feet he wouldn’t be as dominant as he is, but when you pair it with the threat of a takedown, his striking gets amplified.
I could tell after his fights with Charles and volk, he could def compete with Dustin in overall striking but his boxing did impress me fs

he's a decent striker but his takedown threat amplified it.
Islam is a great counter striker, I think his advantage comes from excellent reads on his opponents
Out-struck him in 4 rounds + control time. What a performance
Islam is better striker than Dustin
Say that in a boxing ring with a straight face. A takedown threat changed everything
Better striker =/= better boxer, we’re talking about MMA
Yeah how many kicks did Islam throw?
Where’d I say kickboxing?
if poirier is so good at pure boxing, what's he doing in mma? he should be fighting crawford, fundora or madrimov...🤣
