UFC 318: Brendan Allen can’t give too much love to Dustin Poirier before beating Vettori | Cageside

Louisiana’s own Brendan Allen is excited for the chance to compete at UFC 318, which takes place Saturday, July 19 at Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, but he’s not giving local legend Dustin Poirier too much love ahead of his retirement fight in the night’s main event – at least not while “The Diamond” is in the same gym as Allen’s opponent, Marvin Vettori.
Allen discusses the honor of competing in Louisiana, the importance of a victory, a longstanding beef with Vettori, a move to Chicago to train with Belal Muhammad and Valle Flow Striking, and much more while speaking to Grind City Media’s John Morgan.
