Dustin Poirier has just one win in his last three octagon outings and his last loss to Justin Gaethje ended in a brutal knockout defeat. The 34-year-old is seemingly now looking to get back into the cage at the historic UFC 300 card.

Fans were discussing potential opponents for him when one user called for a fight between Poirier and Michael Page. 'MVP' is currently a free agent and rumored to be signing with the UFC.

"I don't really have a whole lot of plans, I'm just kinda sitting back, training, trying to remain a student. And when the phone rings with the right name, I'll know it's the one and we'll take it from there. So I'm not like trying to to over plan or have this comeback story or anything like that, I'm just trying to get better."

Dustin Poirier will want to get back to winning ways against a high-ranked opponent if he wants another shot at the title. Despite fighting for the undisputed belt twice, he has failed to win it to date.
