During UFC 299, Dustin Poirier's persistent attempts at securing victories through guillotine chokes became a notable topic. Despite advice from his corner, including Mike Brown, urging him to avoid this technique, Poirier remained adamant about using guillotine chokes, even stating, "I ain't stopping hunting guillotines." His corner's explicit instruction, 'no more guillotines,' was repeatedly ignored, highlighting Poirier's determination to continue employing this strategy. This insistence was met with mixed reactions, with some viewing it as a stubborn commitment to a favored move, while others saw it as an unnecessary risk.
