Confusion over Joseph Duffy v Dustin Poirier is finally over

Now we know

UFC have confirmed the card placement for Joseph Duffy v Dustin Poirier at UFC 195.

Duffy was forced to withdraw from the original scheduled fight with Poirier at UFC Dublin in October after he suffered a flash knockout the week before the fight.

The bout was rescheduled for UFC 195 and it was initially thought that it would be on the event’s main card.

However, there was some confusion when it looked like the fight was booked for the preliminary card and in the wee hours of Sunday morning, the UFC confirmed that it had.

The one plus for both fighters is that it will be top of the prelims.
