LAS VEGAS – Featherweight wasn’t kind to Chase Hooper physically, which is why he’s so happy lightweight is off to a great start.
On Saturday at UFC Fight Night 224, Hooper (12-3-1 MMA, 4-3 UFC) dominated New England Cartel fighter Nick Fiore (6-2 MMA, 0-2 UFC) en route to a sweep of every round on all three judges’ scorecards.
“It felt great this week,” Hooper told MMA Junkie and other reporters. “I think I showed with my performance I was able to push the pace. This is where I’m starting to hit my stride, in my seventh UFC fight.”
