Dustin Poirier gives two-word reaction to Charles Jourdain's "LIGHTNING QUICK" guillotine submission at UFC Edmonton, MMA pros chime in

It looks like Dustin Poirier and many others in the MMA community were impressed with Charles Jourdain's sly guillotine submission over Victor Henry at UFC Edmonton.

Jourdain was on a two-fight skid coming into Edmonton, and a win was non-negotiable.

The Canadian put out a terrific performance from the opening bell. After edging out his opponent in a competitive first round, 'Air' wrapped up business in the second. As Henry scrambled to get back to his feet after the fight went to ground momentarily, Jourdain locked in a lightning-fast guillotine to force a tap out of his opponent.

Poirier, known for his love for guillotines, was quick to commend the fighter with a witty two-word response:

"Gilly goose."

Former bantamweight kingpin Aljamain Sterling also lauded 'Air' with some inventive wordplay:

"Don't be silly! Jump the Gilly! Jourdain with the finish!"

Combat sports journalist Shakiel Mahjouri also chimed in:

"Charles Jourdain with the LIGHTNING QUICK guillotine in a competitive fight with Victor Henry."

Interestingly, guillotines appear to be Jourdain's signature move. The 28-year-old has secured four of his six submission wins via the hold.

Speaking to Daniel Cormier during his post-fight octagon interview, 'Air' explained the rationale behind the submission, claiming that wrestlers like Henry tend to push with their heads while trying to secure a single leg, leaving them vulnerable to a modified power guillotine.

Furthermore, Jourdain promised Canadians that he'd bring home the featherweight title if they voted for Conservative party leader Pierre Poilievre in the 45th Canadian Federal Elections.
