Before Arnold Allen steps into the octagon to face Calvin Kattar in the main event of UFC Fight Night 213 in Las Vegas, you can watch his first appearance of the calendar year against Dan Hooker. On his home soil at the O2 in London, Allen looked to make it nine-straight victories as he welcomed Hooker back to the featherweight division. It didn’t take long for Allen to make good on his plans. Allen spent the first few moments of the fight analyzing the movement of Hooker as he circled on the outside, evading Hooker’s initial offerings. The outside leg kick was the first weapon of choice for Allen. Hooker’s forward pressure was intense, but out of nowhere, Allen began unleashing a barrage of punches, forcing Hooker to retreat.
