He faced the debuting Ian Entwistle in that contest, scoring a first-round knockout win in the featherweight contest.<\/p>\n A rocky two years followed that win, as Hooker went 2-3 over that span. A move to lightweight seemed to get things back on track for Hooker after that, as he put together a four-fight winning streak, beating notable names in Ross Pearson, Marc Diakiese, Jim Miller and Gilbert Burns.<\/p>\n That stretch of victories earned Hooker the No. 14 ranking in the 155-pound division against the No. 5 ranked Edson Barboza in the co-main event of a UFC on FOX card. Barboza ended Hooker\u2019s winning streak with a first-round knockout.<\/p>\n Hooker bounced back from that defeat with wins over James Vick, Al Iaquinta, and Paul Felder, working himself up to No. 5 in the division. In 2020 he met Dustin Poirier, who was ranked No. 3 in a UFC Fight Night main event. Poirier won that five-round scrap by unanimous decision (48-47, 48-47, 48-46).<\/p>\n Since that loss, the 36-year-old Hooker has been inconsistent, posting a 4-5 record. It should be noted his losses have come against tough competition in Michael Chandler, Islam Makhachev, Arnold Allen, Arman Tsarukyan, and Benoit Saint Denis. <\/p>\n Hooker is riding a two-fight losing skid into Saturday\u2019s UFC Paris card. His most recent victory<\/a> was his UFC 305 triumph over Mateusz Gamrot in a scrap that took home \u201cFight of the Night\u201d honors. <\/p>\n
