LAS VEGAS – Dan Hooker showed up to UFC 290 media day on Wednesday morning admittedly still needing his coffee to kick in. If it didn’t, he’s sure to receive a jolt in the form of his fight with Jalin Turner.
This, the New Zealander knows.
Hooker (22-12 MMA, 12-8 UFC), No. 12 in the latest UFC lightweight rankings, takes on No. 11 Turner (13-6 MMA, 6-3 UFC) in a key matchup for both men at 155 pounds on the pay-per-view main card at T-Mobile Arena.
