Joseph Duffy Vs Dustin Poirier set for UFC Dublin Main Event

Duffy confirmed the news during an appearance on Ireland AM on TV3 earlier today.

Duffy (14-1 MMA 2-0 UFC) has been training out of the world famous Tristar Gym in Montreal and made a hugely impressive UFC debut stopping Jake Lindsey and Ivan Jorge.
