Poirier is of Acadian French ancestry and especially has Cajun roots. He was born in Lafayette, Louisiana. He briefly attended Northside High School before dropping out in the ninth grade as a result of ongoing problems and street fights.
Poirier faced Aaron Suarez in his MMA debut at USA MMA 7 in 2009. Aaron was knocked out in 79 seconds by Poirier, who then went on to win his next six fights by knocking out all of his opponents. In 2010, he then signed a contract with World Extreme Cagefighting. In his first fight for the organization, Dustin faced Danny Castillo at WEC 50 and was defeated by a unanimous decision.
After recovering from the setback, he defeated Zach Micklewright by TKO in his following match. Following the WEC and the promotion’s merger in 2010, Poirier jumped into the UFC.
