#UFC was smart to open up this 165 pound division. Gives them a main event for #UFC230. Gives the fans 5 rounds of Diaz V Poirier. But mainly, it gives McGregor a shot at 2 belts again. Because I don’t think he ever makes 145 again & 170 is a big jump. Smart by Dana White

I reckon Dana could have his head turned by the massive interest here...#UFC230 https://t.co/q0hrNUfsKM

While I don't want to see Diaz v Poirier for the 165 lb belt, I do appreciate how they used the UFC's own tactics against them by announcing a fight before it gets booked to pressure the promotion through fan excitement into booking it.

This one's for Yair Rodriguez. #UFC230

@NateDiaz209 @DustinPoirier why don't both of you just weigh in at 165? No denying that title then. #UFC230

I really hope Dana is telling the truth this time.

Imagine launching a new division that will drain the talent pool in the two best divisions in the sport purely out of desperation? #UFC230 https://t.co/cbolLyNzEi

#UFC230 still no main? I remember 228 not having a main for a good bit and getting mad cause I wanted to buy tickets. The ufc wouldn't be so cluster fu**ed if they would quit placing 2 title fights per card alot of the time. Smh well they got some time before tickets go on sale.

165lb division doesn’t make sense unless Welterweight bumps up to 175lb imho🧐 #UFC230

Diaz vs Poirer for a 165lb strap at #UFC230 gets my vote. But seeing as Dana etc are being so insistent in denying it's happening, they are gonna face a backlash if the eventual main event is lacklustre.

This is NOT confirmed by the UFC. Would you like to see Diaz vs. Poirier headline UFC 230 in a new weight devision?

Has anyone tried the 5th grade playground rule with ol' DW? Let's see what happens. @danawhite you won't do it. You won't do Diaz Porrier for the super lightweight belt. #pleasedontblockme #superlightweightstrap #UFC230 https://t.co/JVV3ypPxju

Congratulations to Nate Diaz and @DustinPoirier who will be making history at #ufc230 - This division is long overdue. Also, well done to the @ufc and Dana White for making this finally happen. Good luck gentlemen. May the best man win.

Think about it. Nate and Dustin must of dm eachother and made this elaborate plan of pretending they are fighting for 165lbs title. Just to force UFC's hand in actually making a 165 lbs division... Smart, very smart.#UFC229 #UFC230 #UFC

Remember UFC 139 when the UFC went rogue and made Hendo vs Shogun a 5 round non-title main event. Remember how epic that fight was. Poirier vs Diaz has the potential to provide the same madness. #UFC230
