UFC 243 Results – Dan Hooker Dominates Al Iaquinta for Three Rounds to Win a Unanimous Decision

Dan Hooker delivers a dominant performance and goes ahead to call out Dustin Poirier!

In the co-main event, Dan Hooker was all over Al Iaquinta as he pressed forward and landed his entire arsenal of punches and kicks until Iaquinta had taken it all and eventually slowed down. Using his height and reach advantage, Dan kept Iaquinta at the end of his punches and kicks as he landed numerous shots that saw Iaquinta bleed from his nose. Having see his stand up not match up to Dan’s, Iaquinta changed his game plan switching to takedowns. But Dan was able to scramble and take Iaquinta’s back where he tried to land a rear naked choke.

Iaquint escaped and eventually landed some big over hand rights on Dan to catch him off guard. But Dan was persistent in his striking and never really allowed Iaquinta to get inside his range. Dan went all out displaying his elite kickboxing skills and take down defense game. With this win, Hooker is now 6-1 at lightweight and has called out Poirier for his next fight.
