Dan Hooker: ‘Skill-for-skill,’ Conor McGregor is best lightweight outside Khabib
ABU DHABI – Dan Hooker spoke to the media Tuesday ahead of UFC 257.
Hooker (20-9 MMA, 10-5 UFC) discussed his lightweight co-main event bout against Michael Chandler (21-5 MMA, 0-0 UFC), believes that the three-time former Bellator lightweight champion has a justified amount of hype coming in, where he fits into the 155-pound title picture with a win, Khabib Nurmagomedov’s non-retirement, Conor McGregor’s skills and much more.
UFC 257 takes place Saturday at Etihad Arena on Yas Island. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and ESPN+.
