UFC Fight Night 204 Betting: Allen vs. Hooker Picks, Preview and Predictions (Saturday, March 19th, 2022)

Arnold Allan has not been defeated since coming to the Ultimate Fighting Championship and he will do whatever it takes to keep that record unblemished. He will be taking on Dan Hooker this coming Saturday, March 19 during UFC Fight Night 204. Both fighters are set to go on stage when the UFC goes to Europe for the first time since the pandemic at the O2 Arena located in London, England. Fans can witness the bout through Pay Per View or UFC Fight Pass subscription. According to the top online sportsbook, Arnold Allan will keep his winning streak intact after his match with Dan Hooker. 

Arnold Allen

Arnold Allan made his debut at the UFC featherweight division way back in June 2015. Since then, there has been no fighter that came close to bringing down the fighter from Felixstowe, Suffolk. Allan is known to be a resilient competitor as his last four fights went to a full three rounds with all the judges unanimously picking him over his opponent. As of the moment, the fighter from England who goes by the ring name “Almighty”, is seventh in the featherweight rankings and a win against Dan Hooker could mean he is a step closer to a much-coveted title shot against the reigning champion Alexander Volkanovski.

Dan Hooker

Dan Hooker is looking to get his winning rhythm back after losing three of his last four fights. The only win that he had was against Nasrat Haqparast in UFC 266 and the rest are defeats from Dustin Poirier, Michael Chandler and Islam Machachev. At 32 years old, Hooker has a professional MMA record of 21-11. “The Hangman” got most of his wins at ten knockouts while also owning seven submission victories. This fighter from New Zealand has an edge in octagon experience as he started competing in the UFC back in June 2014. Since then, he had 19 fights in the organization and earned 12 wins.
