Craig Jones Talks Dustin Poirier’s Jumping Guillotine: “That’s Like Not Pulling Out”

Dustin Poirier will face Islam Makhachev in a highly anticipated fight at UFC 302…
And everyone is wondering – will he go for one of his signature moves, the jumping Guillotine Choke?

Well, B-Team’s Craig Jones believes that there’s a high likelihood that Poirier will do just that.
And that it just might be a successful attempt – though it’s a risky endeavor:

You’re all in on a Guillotine.
You’re rolling the dice.

That’s like not pulling out.
It’s a big – big win or a big negative.

Jones emphasizes the risk – and reward – of it further:

I think he’s a gambling man.

It would be funny if Dustin missed all these Guillotines in his last fight.
Everyone was like: “F*ck you, you suck.”

And then he guillotines Islam.
So maybe that’s the strategy.

But what about Poirier’s grappling skills as a whole? What does Craig Jones have to say about that?
Well, he isn’t exactly sure what to think:

I don’t know enough about Dustin’s grappling.
I haven’t seen enough of it.

If he was to win, I’d imagine probably on the feet.
