Dustin Poirier KO BSD One Minutes Into 2nd Round At UFC 299—Dustin Poirier served up a reminder that he’s still one of the top dogs at 155lbs tonight at UFC 299 as he brought Benoit Saint Denis winning streak to a screeching halt courtesy of a right hook knockout in the second round.

Round One:

Kick to the thigh from Saint-Denis to start. Then one to the calf. Chopping calf kick from Poirier.

Counter left-hook from Poirier as BSD rushes in on a takedown attempt. Saint-Denis looks for the takedown but instead Poirier drops down for a guillotine choke attempt. BSD rolls away from that and stays on top.

Poirier stands against the cage, but Saint-Denis stays clinched to his back. Poirier throws an elbow behind him. Saint-Denis lands a few punches and then hops onto Poirier’s back. However he’s a bit high and Poirier does well to shake him off.

BSD lands a few good punches. Poirier threatens with a standing guillotine choke but Saint-Denis gets away.

Kick for Poirier. BSD blasts him with a few punches and gets into the clinch against the cage working elbows. Poirier manages to get away.

Now it’s Poirier working for a takedown on the other side of the cage. There’s a scramble then back up. Nasty elbows from BSD and then a hard punch from Poirier.

Saint-Denis clinches up and as they go to the mat now Poirier is trying the guillotine choke again. BSD fends that off and then is able to take Poirier’s back.

Final minute and Saint-Denis is looking for a chance to sink in a rear-naked choke. He gets the body triangle locked in. Poirier trying to turn into him and Saint-Denis goes for an armbar. Poirier wags a finger though indicating that’s not going to happen as he gets his arm free just as the round ends.

Round Two:

Missed kick from Saint-Denis but he keeps coming forward looking for more offense. Uppercut from Poirier. BSD working for the takedown and Poirier is right back to trying to get the guillotine, but Saint-Denis gets out of that again.

Saint-Denis now working to improve his position and gets Poirier’s back. Looks like a good spot for him, but Poirier does well to suddenly work back to his feet. BSD is still pressing him into the cage though. Good combination from Saint-Denis.

Back to striking range. BSD continually applying pressure, but then he’s punished for it as Poirier blasts him with a big punches that puts him down to a knee for a split-second.

BSD trying to fight through this, but is punished for it as Poirier lands a right hook that sends him crashing to the canvas, and that’s it, a great knockout victory for ‘The Diamond’ at 2.32mins of the second round.

BREAKING: Ex-Chelsea Captain César Azpilicueta Announces Retirement From Football—-Spanish defender brings curtain down on trophy-laden career after spells with Chelsea, Atlético Madrid and Sevilla.

Former Chelsea FC captain César Azpilicueta has officially announced his retirement from professional football at the age of 36.

The Spanish defender confirmed that he will hang up his boots at the end of the season, bringing an end to a remarkable career that spanned nearly two decades.

He shared this news via his social media handles.

Azpilicueta enjoyed his most successful years at Chelsea after joining the club from Marseille in 2012. During his 11-year spell at Stamford Bridge, he made more than 500 appearances and became the first player in the club’s history to win every major trophy available.

As Chelsea captain, Azpilicueta famously lifted the UEFA Champions League trophy in 2021 under Thomas Tuchel, adding to Premier League, Europa League, FA Cup, UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup triumphs during his time in London.

Following his departure from Chelsea in 2023, the veteran defender spent two seasons with Atlético Madrid before joining Sevilla FC for the final chapter of his career.

Azpilicueta also represented Spain at international level, earning 44 senior caps and featuring in multiple FIFA World Cups and European Championships.

In an emotional farewell message, the defender admitted it was difficult to make the decision but thanked supporters, teammates, coaches and clubs who shaped his journey in football.

Tributes have since poured in from fans and former teammates, with many describing Azpilicueta as one of Chelsea’s greatest modern-day captains and one of the most respected defenders of his generation.

BREAKING: Shock Omissions as Palmer and Alexander-Arnold Miss England World Cup Selection—-Ex-Chelsea Manager Thomas Tuchel makes bold selection calls ahead of tournament in North America.

England manager Thomas Tuchel has made several major selection decisions after leaving Cole Palmer and Trent Alexander-Arnold out of the Three Lions’ final squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

The omissions have quickly sparked debate among fans and pundits, with both players considered among England’s biggest talents in recent years.

According to reports, Tuchel opted for balance, tactical flexibility, and current form when finalising his 26-man squad for the tournament in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

Palmer’s exclusion comes despite the Chelsea star’s strong performances over the last two seasons, while Alexander-Arnold reportedly missed out due to tactical preferences and competition in defensive areas.

The squad announcement also saw several surprise inclusions, including Ivan Toney and Djed Spence, while experienced names such as Jordan Henderson earned recalls.

Other notable absentees include Harry Maguire and Phil Foden as Tuchel reshapes the squad ahead of England’s World Cup campaign.

England will head into the tournament hoping to end decades of hurt and finally lift the World Cup trophy for the first time since 1966.
