Former interim UFC lightweight champion Dustin Porier opened up about how he got over last year's loss to Justin Gaethje.

"After the fight with Gaethje, I went through some real mental anguish. I was going through stuff. That's when I started practicing mindfulness, setting my intentions and just trying to be grateful for every day. Yeah, it's really hard.

Whenever I saw what Volkanovski was saying, how he was expressing his thoughts and how honest he was being..... I went through that, too. After the fight, I started going to therapy. I think it's important to open up and talk about how you feel," - quotes the American Sportskeeda.
