SportsLine's Daniel Vithlani reveals his picks for the UFC 318 fight card from Smoothie King Center in New Orleans on Saturday

Dustin Poirier puts a bow on his legendary career Saturday with one final homecoming clash in New Orleans against BMF champ Max Holloway.

With 14 scheduled fights, UFC 318 will almost certainly feature some highlight-reel finishes and boasts several fighters that are serious knockout threats.

Dustin Poirier really is going for the fairytale ending to his career with a fight booked against Max Holloway in his home state of Louisiana at UFC 318. Jon Jones barely let the ink dry on his retirement paperwork before declaring his intention to return but Poirier’s longtime head coach Mike Brown really does believes this is the final fight for the one-time interim UFC lightweight champion.

UFC BMF champion Max Holloway clashes with sixth-ranked Dustin Poirier in a UFC lightweight bout on Saturday. The main UFC 318: Holloway vs. Poirier 3 card is scheduled to begin at 10 p.m. ET from Smoothie King Center in New Orleans.
