UFC lightweight contender Dustin Poirier challenges champion Islam Makhachev for the title in the main event of UFC 302 at The Prudential Center in Newark, N.J.

Poirier discusses the roller coaster of emotions a fighter faces when facing elite opposition as frequently as he does. A KO loss to Justin Gaethje was devastating, but a brutal knockout of Benoit St. Denis was exhilirating.

Poirier talks about his career as well as comparisons between Makhachev and Makhachev's mentor, former champion Khabib Nurmagomedov.
