UFC lightweight Dustin Poirier has campaigned almost nonstop for a big fight. Now he’s looking for the exit door.

Poirier, 30, called for his release Wednesday after several months of inactivity and frustration laid bare on social media.

“These guys should just release me,” he tweeted.

In a text message to MMAjunkie, Poirier confirmed his desire to be released and a request for a bump in pay to fight Al Iaquinta at UFC 236, though he added no official offer had been made by the promotion for the April 13 pay-per-view event.

Asked about promotions that could potentially host him, including Bellator, Rizin FF and ONE Championship, Poirier added, “Anywhere.”

Iaquinta on Tuesday told “UFC Unfiltered” that the UFC tried to book him opposite Poirier and that financial demands were a roadblock.

“I hope the UFC can reach down into their pockets and make him happy to take the fight,” Iaquinta said. “Because from what I’ve been hearing, it’s going to be Conor (McGregor) and (Donald) ‘Cowboy” (Cerrone) in the summer, (and) Max Holloway is going to come up (from featherweight) to fight (Tony) Ferguson for an interim belt. So that leaves me and him.”

Iaquinta was quick to respond to Poirier’s tweet with one of his own, writing “Release me too” and adding “it’s not even a sport anymore” in another.

Poirier was all smiles this past March after inking a new UFC contract with “championship language” and a bump in pay. He said he wanted to retire with the promotion. But after back-to-back wins against ex-champs Justin Gaethje and Eddie Alvarez, Poirier grew increasingly frustrated with his inability to get a UFC title shot or a big fight.

In January, Poirier gave the promotion an ultimatum, saying he would only accept a rematch with Conor McGregor – who defeated him in 2014 as a featherweight – or ex-interim champ Tony Ferguson. He also wanted a new contract.

As recently as last week, Poirier said he was in the dark about his future. Now that things seem to be falling into place, he wants out.
