Former Interim UFC Lightweight Champion Dustin Poirier does not rule out that he will leave the largest promotion if he receives a better financial offer.

“Of course I would like to end my career here, but I am a professional fighter and I fight for a reward, so the money has to be right.

It's great when aspiring fighters look at a guy like Nate Diaz who first earned himself a place in the organization and is now a free agent and can see what he's really worth.

As offers start coming in and the details become public, other fighters will see what other companies have to offer. This will help make our sport better for everyone,” Poirier told Heavy Sports.

Recall that Poirier will fight Michael Chandler on November 12 at UFC 281 in New York.
