News Dustin Poirier Vs Dan Hooker in the works, 27th June.

[swiftasthewind]

hooker is too static for someone as accurate and fast as dustin, i can see dustin gives him many problems

hooker can play safe with his boring consistent jab and leg kicks but proly dustin will come ready to find a counter

dustin is more likely to win, proly even get the finish

 

[Swoliosis]

Got DP on this one.

Double penetration????

 

[Juventud]

Hooker by being a dog, Dustin will fold

Hooker will lure him into a dogfight. It will be a lot closer than people expect. Dustins taken a lot of damage over the years.

Dan about to get that chin checked. Poirer gots them accurate and powerful hands.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Hooker lands a devastating shot and K.O.’s Dustin.

 

[And Erson Ilva]

I expect a good fight and a ton of threads about how overrated Dustin is afterwards.

If his power doesn’t make the difference early I see Hooker hanging around to a decision.

This hookers getting DPed

This will be the third worst beating a hooker takes in MMA.
Just under Baroza vs Dan and Jon Jones.

 

[Sijara Romero]

I heard Hookers like Diamonds... Bet this Hooker will get a good fistful.

 

[BROWNPRIDE]

Dustin’s going to smash hooker!

Kinda hedging your bet with your post. So who’s your pick? Lol.

 

[strebitel86]

A win over Porier will catapult Hooker at the top of the division.

 

[GreatSaintGuillotine]

Dustin by TKO. Good comeback fight for him.

 

[The_Renaissance]

Great, I'm glad they rescheduled this banger. Hooker's a tosser, hope Poirier wins.

 

[arcadeperfect]

Was I the only one that thought Hooker lost to Felder?

I thought he lost too. I feel his ranking is really inflated due to Al Iaquinta who was also an inflated top 6.

 

[arcadeperfect]

I don't get the Hooker hype (if there is any lol).

He got brutalized by Barboza, kinda robbed/edged Felder and then fucked up Al. But Al got fucked up vs Cowboy in the feet, and Khabib clowned him with jabs, I mean, it's a good win, but that's the best he's got on his resume. DP is undoubtedly top 5, I expect him to win decisively.

It's because Al had an inflated ranking. He jumped all the way from #11 (Khabib fight) up to #5 after beating Kevin Lee. After Cowboy beat Al, he only dropped to #6 which is when Hooker fought him.

 

[VolkHan]

I feel Dustin's the better fighter but is coming off of a humiliating loss after 9 years in UFC, could be that his soul is gone.
Dan on the other hand is still hungry for sure.
Nice scrap

 

[Hirashin]

Great matchup for Hooker, he should win this one!
Waar Australia and New Zeland!

 

[Conor_Is_Overrated]

I really think Dustin is better than Tony and conor and is the best LW behind Khabib

It's quite likely. His LW run is impressive, and he actually beat Justin.

 

[sonhow]

Two elite guys and Poirier certainly deserves to be the favorite and should smash him but this is mma and these things just happen so I go with Hooker by tko in the first round.

What about War Machine?
