Earlier this week, former
#UFC star
#DustinPoirier was arrested at Atlanta’s airport after allegedly being removed from a flight for public intoxication. Newly released police bodycam footage shows an agitated Poirier arguing with gate agents, cursing at staff, and attempting to confront a responding officer before being taken into custody.
Following the incident, Poirier addressed the situation on Instagram, revealing that he’s struggling with life after retirement and is seeking help.
“I’m at the point where I need some help. Walking away from fighting hasn’t been easy on me, and alcohol isn’t the answer,” Poirier wrote.
“It ruined my father’s life, and I won’t allow it to ruin mine. My family deserves the best version of me. I’m doing everything I can to get my mind right and take the right next steps.”
