Arnold Allen vs. Dan Hooker Set For UFC London In March
Perennial UFC lightweight contender Dan Hooker is making his return to the featherweight division for the first time since November 2016 and takes on Arnold Allen on March 19 at the 02 Arena in London, England.
The promotion officially announced the bout via a tweet from their UFC Europe Twitter account, revealing the matchup is signed for the UFC’s return to London in March. Hooker is 1-3 in his last four fights and will try to bounce back from a first-round submission loss to Islam Makhachev at UFC 267. Allen on the other hand is riding a 10 fight winning streak currently and is 8-0 in his eight Octagon appearances, most recently defeating Sodiq Yusuff via a unanimous decision back at UFC Vegas 23.
