Streaking UFC lightweight contender, Beneil Dariush has urged former interim lightweight champion, Dustin Poirier, to consider retiring from professional mixed martial arts, if he continues to reject the opportunity to share the Octagon with him.
Dariush, the current #4 ranked UFC lightweight contender, has enjoyed an impressive run of eight consecutive victories, most recently defeating former KSW featherweight and lightweight champion, Mateusz Gamrot in a unanimous decision effort at UFC 280 back in October of last year.
Lafayette native, Poirier on the other hand, managed to defeat former vacant title challenger, Michael chandler at UFC 281 the following month, finishing the former Bellator champion with a third round rear-naked choke.
Linked with a return next year against Iranian grappler, Dariush, Poirier claimed he was not interested in fighting the Kings MMA staple, leading to calls from the former to see Poirier hang up his gloves in a bid to allow the division to move past the #2 ranked challenger.
“I wish he’d be a little bit more clear as to like, what is it that doesn’t excite him about me?” Beneil Dariush told Submission Radio. “Are my fights not exciting enough? Or is it a skill issue? Or is it just because I don’t have the name? If it’s just because of the name, man, he (Dustin Poirier) should really consider retiring. Because if you’re gonna look for the names, if you’re gonna look at to fight only guys that, you know, the name will get you…”
“Like, how many more fights like that can you get you?” Beneil Dariush said. “So, either step up or think about doing something else. And he seems successful. So, if you’re not genuinely – fighting is not a sport you want to be half-hearted about. So, if he’s not a hundred percent in, he should really reconsider what he’s doing.”
Amongst his list of other impressive victories, Dariush has defeated former interim champion, Tony Ferguson, Carlos Diego Ferreira, Drew Dober, and Thiago Moises.

Beneil Dariush entered the UFC Hall of Fame as a part of the 2024 class, as the fifth winner of the Forrest Griffin Community Award.
Dariush received praise for the work he has done with multiple organizations to help those living in the likes of Iraq and Haiti.
Standing on the stage alongside legends of the sport, the active lightweight contender came away with a few moments that he will always remember fondly.
One of those was being able to stand there alongside Frankie Edgar, who was a big inspiration for his own career, and was inducted into the Modern Wing.
Another moment was an observation that Dariush made about some former rivals burying the hatchet with one another.
In a recent interview with Submission Radio, Dariush reflected on one particular moment that stayed with him from the Hall of Fame ceremony.
Chael Sonnen has had his fair share of iconic rivalries, with many of his biggest fights coming against Brazilian opponents.
International Fight Week saw Sonnen get inducted for his first fight with Anderson Silva, alongside two other Brazilian legends in Wanderlei Silva and Mauricio “Shogun” Rua.
Dariush recalled how he was able to watch them all interact with one another as he reflected on how much their dynamic has changed over the years.
“The other cool part was “Shogun” was there and Wanderlei was there, we’re all from the same gym right. Three guys from basically Kings or Chute Boxe or from that lineage to get awards was cool and finally, at one point, I saw, it was like this.
“Wanderlei was sitting here, “Shogun’s” here and Chael was right here in the middle and I’m behind them all and I just thought to myself, bro, 10 years ago if this situation was happening, I don’t think Chael would be getting out of this room alive but look at them now. Hanging out, speaking to each other and just being gentlemen. That was probably the coolest part to see, everybody’s moved on from the drama from previous.”
