Patricky Pitbull wants to see Dustin Poirier cross the bond to Bellator.
Former UFC interim lightweight champion Poirier was recently put on blast by UFC President Dana White for allegedly pricing himself out of a bout against Tony Ferguson at UFC 254. That caught the attention of Bellator fighter Patricky Pitbull.
Pitbull recently revealed on Twitter that he wishes that Poirier was a part of the Bellator roster, instead of the UFC roster:
Imagine how cool MMA would be if when a promoter doesn't value their fighters they could go offer their talents elsewhere. Come to @BellatorMMA @DustinPoirier, I'm sure they'll make you feel appreciated and pay you what you deserve. And then we can fight --

Ironically, if Poirier were to somehow move from the UFC to Bellator, it would make him an instant contender for the Bellator lightweight title. That title is held by Patricky's brother Patricio Pitbull.
