Mateusz Gamrot Oct 9, 2025

“Dustin Poirier gave me a lot of advice. He told me how I need to fight with Charles. But I can't say right now what he told me, but this is big information for me. I think it's gonna be a game changer during this fight.”

Confidence
Dustin Poirier Oct 8, 2025

“When I think about fighting Charles, he is a very front and back fighter. You need to be more lateral. Gamrot needs to use footwork and be all the way in or all the way out. With a guy like Charles, he's long and strong in the clinch, and he uses it very well. He'll throw a front kick, then get into the clinch, smother your boxing. I think Gamrot, with his wrestling experience, he'd be able to pick where the fight goes. If he wants to stand up, he can do that. If he wants to go to the ground, he can take it there... Gamrot is a really good scrambler and wrestler. Don't stay on the straight line with Charles.”

Praise
Dustin Poirier Oct 8, 2025

“With four ounce gloves, even though we don't think of Gamrot as a power, one hit puncher, he is... Gamrot's boxing game has improved so much over the past two years. I think he's going to surprise a lot of people.”
