New Bodycam Footage Reveals Dustin Poirier's Arrest Details

Newly released bodycam footage from June 21 reveals details of Dustin Poirier's arrest at Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport for public drunkenness. The footage shows the former UFC fighter restrained by officers as he exhibits agitated behavior and challenges them to a fight.

Poirier, while in handcuffs, is seen attempting to provoke the officers, expressing frustration and demanding to be released. The situation escalates as he continues to shout in a holding cell, making aggressive remarks toward the officers.

During the processing, one officer acknowledges Poirier's fighting background but expresses disdain, making a bizarre threat regarding the fighter's cauliflower ear.
