"I gave him a discount code" - Dustin Poirier hilariously reveals what he offered Justin Gaethje during UFC 291 face-offs

Dustin Poirier recently revealed what he offered Justin Gaethje during their UFC 291 face-off.

During his appearance on the UFC 291 weigh-in show, Daniel Cormier asked Poirier what was said between the two lightweights ahead of their upcoming main event for their 'BMF' title fight. The UFC Hall of Famer was under the impression that Gaethje gave him something and asked for clarification, saying:

""What did you take from @Justin_Gaethje [Justin Gaethje] when you guys were face to face yesterday?"

'The Diamond' noted that he was the one who actually made the exchange with his foe ahead of their highly anticipated rematch. He mentioned that he used the face-off as an opportunity to gift his opponent a discount code that can be redeemed on his website in order to purchase a bottle of his hot sauce, which made for a hilarious reaction.

He said:

""I didn't take anything. I gave him a discount code for my hotsauce website. 20% off."
