Dan Hooker Talks About His Quick Turnaround Against Brian Ortega

Dan Hooker will face Brian Ortega just 77 days after his loss at UFC Paris. Hooker said he had a tough training camp and made serious progress in his consistency and training, but he was frustrated because he never got the chance to show it.

Hooker said that when he saw Tom Nolan matched with Moicano, he called his manager Ash and told him he could beat Ortega. Hooker also described Ortega as old and said the UFC liked the fight and approved it.
