Hooker looks like a fun chap to hang out with but idk if he even won that Paul Felder fight. Split decision but Felder looked like the better fighter. The Poirier one tho was an absolute war. One of those fights where you need a moment alone after😁😁

Good point Conor did need to rehab his image as well

Hooker is unbelievably tough, after seeing the wars he went through with Dustin and Edson Barboza, the only way I see Chandler taking it is if he can wrestlefuck him and win on points.
Dustin also has crazy heart, but his energy does seem a bit off for this fight. I still think he could take it if Connor can't finish it quick though

Damn Alc I think you might have Dustin fucked up lol 1st off McGregor beat this man 7yrs ago at featherweight where I add Conor was a better/more dynamic striker and conditioning problems weren't as apparent... I think Dustin cutting that weight to make featherweight back then held him back cause he's a beast at lightweight... And he definitely could go toe to toe with Conor, he may not be as fast but he has good head movement and heavy hands... Plus we know Conor gases out by the end of the 2nd, top of the 3rd so if he doesn't tko him by middle of the 2nd it could be anyone's fight with momentum sure to swing in favor of Poirier... We'll see thou lol thanks for mma vids bro keep em coming👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿

Let’s go!! Thanks for weighing in on UFC!
Yah, love seeing Conor’s mix of maturity but deep confidence still buzzing with electricity!
Love the breakdown to Dustin’s interpersonal vibe. You nailed it imo! I do see him thinking he can stand with Conor and yah who knows but I think more times than not if it’s a kickboxing match Conor gets an emphatic win at some point.
I wonder how smart Conor really is...like I’m sure part of him “cleaning up” his act is because of public image and branding/family vibes but also wonder if his new demeanor also lulls his opponent in some way.
Hooker and Chandler should be lit given Chandler’s trying to make a name in UFC and Hooker is a nasty striker looking to contend.
If possible please give us your breakdown after!!
You the best!!!!
