Dan Hooker could be sidelined for a while

The lightweight broke his arm during the fight against Turner, something he called “just a scratch” in the post-fight interview with Joe Rogan.

It’s unclear how long Hooker will be recovering from his injuries, but adding facial fracture to the list of injuries, he might be away from the octagon for quite some time.

Dan Hooker currently is 3-2 in his last five fights and has back-to-back wins against Jailin Turner and Claudio Puelles. His two most recent losses came against featherweight contender Arnold Allen and current lightweight champion Islam Makhachev.
