Dustin Poirier has a pivotal fight scheduled tomorrow night at UFC 195, as not only will he take on rising lightweight Joseph Duffy, he’s reporting it will be the fifth bout of a six fight deal.

The 26 year-old Poirier recently revealed that free agency could be on the horizon while speaking to MMA Junkie.com Radio. The American Top Team fighter added that in the past, the UFC has extended his contract before Poirier’s contract has run out.

Poirier also noted that other fighters have been getting “paid” and that he’s “trying to get a piece of the pie”.

The 18-4 fighter has scored consecutive, stoppage wins over Yancy Medeiros and Carlos Diego Ferreira after exiting the featherweight division.

UFC 195 will be hosted by the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
