UFC Fight Night: Poirier v. Hooker Results
In the APEX’s penultimate show before we sail off to Fight Island, former Interim Lightweight Champion Dustin Poirier and gritty New Zealander Dan Hooker collided in a sure-fire FOTY candidate which left both men, unsurprisingly, in the hospital.
In the co-main event, Mike Perry and his girlfriend decisioned a deflated Mickey Gall in a fight many expected to go some other direction. Saturday was a bounty of riches and gave witness to several exceptional performances and fights, including Brendan Allen and Kyle Daukas’ bloody middleweight grappling showcase, an impressive comeback win for Julian Erosa, a quick night at the office for Pancrase alumni Takashi Sato, and a beautiful heavyweight KO for Tanner Boser.
