0:28 "He was looking for a counter hook but got caught with his own hook by hooker." That's a lot of hooks Dom
Why dont you put on another suit and go take some pictures.
@@elliottjames671 uber profile pictures
@@28johncena ?
He paused before he said “by hooker” which means it was at that moment he realized this could be funny/ironic lol
Fritz lmao
I'll be the first to admit that Hooker wasn't really on my radar but wow this is quite the highlight reel. can't wait for this card!
Is any of these guys even ranked
@@pitchrich5893 Jim Miller has been in the UFC over 10 years and only other KO loss is to Cowboy, he's about as tough as the come and definitely not a glass chin
@@pitchrich5893 James Vick had a good streak. The other ones seem to be idiots doing the noob rush against a real pro
@@bartzalewski true but you see jims defense is not any better than the other guys here
@@pitchrich5893 Ranked or not he still beat them and they are ufc fighters which means they have some sort of talent not complete scrubs like in other promotions.
“I dont just get knocked out, I pick the round.”- James Vick
Hahahahaahahhahahahahah
Thank you for the laugh 😂
Dude is made of glass
🤣🤣🤣
"I got tired of getting knocked out by fists so I decided to try an upkick KO today. Was not disappointed" - James Vick
4:05 "Find your range, now!" Hooker: BOOM
Fukn legendary coaches
Yup heard that too, coaches can see everything coming, and let their fighters know when to strike and their fighters listen, fckn awesome 👏🏾
That's cool as hell
If I was his coach I’d be in tears
I'll always remember his war with Barboza, this guy fought his heart out till his body completely shut down, there is no quit in this guy, hard not to root for this kiwi.
Jay Ju that’s what he’s saying. Not many people can take that amount of punishment and not quit
@@mo0ko0 Beating Barbosa on the feet is next to impossible, hes probably the best kickboxer in the division, too bad he has no ground game tho lol.
@@antaidavis8839 that hook from Justin was viscious tho. But yeah agreed
@@antaidavis8839 he's a gatekeeper
@@antaidavis8839 Barboza eats up kickboxers, but if you brawl with him, as we've seen with tony and gaethje he crumbles.
Hooker doesnt have the greatest record but he’s a bred born savage. Absolute stud
Dan hooker one my fave lightweights glad he's starting to get the spotlight
Same here, love his gritty fighting style.
yes me too, and he is sexy (I must confess I'm gay)
He's pulling off piles of 200iq moves
@@ramsy4205 yeah, impressive
He’s good but got the absolute shit beat of him by Edson
Don’t remember the last time James Vick won. Only time i see him is when he’s getting KOed in videos lol
He became famous when Justin babtized him. I think he had a bunch of finishes but really I don't remember
@@ramsy4205 poor guy he is man feel for him
Guess he became the homer simpson of the ufc.. ironic
Biggest win is probably the TKO win over the highly hyped Joe Duffy, although he fizzled quite fast.
He’s been KOd only twice I think
4:05 that’s just insane...that’s when you know fighter and coach have an insane chemistry
What did he say??
@@kostonl "Find your range" "Now!"
That was ross Pearson's coach not hookers
@@kostonl not even hookers coach
After this fight dan hooker can buy a house from raging al with the fight of the night bonus
Actually, they are both real estate agents, so they probably will just exchange contacts, lol
$50k to buy a house? Maybe in the 70s.
Lmaoo
Shawn Cahill Al iqunita is the number 1 pound for pound real estate agent he can sell any house
No-one can afford a house in Auckland
4:08 Knee sent the mouthpiece flying
Those knees are on point and that power guillotine is amazing. Well rounded martial artist.
@@michaelb4538 He trains people so I would hope so.
hope he meets the wrong guys on the street and they will kick his face when he's knocked out fking crackhead
@@martinklein1139 huh
😯😴😴😴
Love how during the Pearson KO you could hear Eugene yell "find your range" then, NOW!!' And the knee came up and that was it. I wonder if that's what the were calling for, if or if not still awesome to hear and see.
Thats actually the great Karl Webber you hear
fun fact he's Israel Adesanya's training partner and Izzy calls him Vegeta
t c Damn.
@@Sleeepy23 You're reading too much into this. Unlikely Vegeta refers to Hooker being second best, more plausible it refers to their similar hairlines.
@@Sleeepy23 training pals joke around. They say funny things and call eachoters stupid names and less dumb names. It is normal.
@@Sleeepy23 martial arts arent like in 15th century Japan anymore. Training buddies do more things than nod to each others and may say less respectable things mainly as jokea.
@@Sleeepy23 The fuck you talking bout, vegeta is a fucking boss in dbz. Favourite and still in my eyes the strongest character
I like how Dan doesn't put power on any shots. He just effortlessly inflicts damage. This should be a great fight
love that about him
He's a little like Tony Ferguson. Inflicts damage with accurate shots over time
@@kieferdonald3289 He hits harder than Tony imo but Tony has way better cardio and bjj than Hooker. Both are 2 of my favorite fighters currently
Hooker is an absolute monster. He is in one of the most lethal weight classes right now, a lot of great competition
Was gutted he lost to iron Mike
This man is the definition of a anti wrestler, long arms to lock in tight guillotines and perfectly timed knees waiting for his opponent's to shoot
This is why he is gonna k.o khabibs prodigy he won't know what's hit him
@@carlinkofoed2933 i hope so Hooker deserves it.
@@carlinkofoed2933 talk now baby

Dan Hooker : Knees Felder : Elbows Prediciton : Got to be Fight of the year candidate
I literally forgot Hooker KO'ed Burns.. what a highlight reel!
4:04 that is so hard to watch.... he must have fractured his jaw into a million pieces.
Dan Hooker is my favorite fighter no question
Watch the James Vick KO one more time. He fakes the right hand and then comes with a massive left hook.
Bob Saget ill slap tf out of you and james vick
Can’t believe he did not see it coming even I did
Nice guy with amazing skill.
Dude i didn't notice this guy knock out Dilbert.
DILBERT?
@@aydenolivares4328 Just kidding my dude :)))))
That KO on James Vick is an absoulute beauty. Probably one of the best knockouts I've seen in a long time. Can't wait to see him scrap again.
It was good, but Vick's lack of defense for the left hook, goddamn...
Totally agree, unless you're not talking about Justin here 😉 but in all seriousness Dan hooker is a great fighter
Izzy called him a psychopath 🤣 I can see why, man is a killer!!
I remember when he knocked Vick out, every one was so happy because it was the first finish on the card, and it was like the 10th fight.
Jesus this guy is like a human highlight reel I knew dan was great but didnt know he had this many brutal ko’s in ufc
Dan Hooker has HEART. Watch his Poirier and Barboza fights. Although he loses both, he just kept coming and didn't give up. Tony vs Dan Hooker?
The dude is the embodiment of timing and technique in fighting. So impressive.
It’s insane how quick and powerful he throws that right knee
Who's here after watching Burns dominate Woodley
so what? bitch
@@wenbao2089 what's your issue man chill out
A B he ate them all 😆
Woodleys done. Usman destroys burns, easy fight.
@@wenbao2089 somebody's insecure 😆 poor boy. Whether you guy wins or loses, doesn't stop you from being a bitch. People can't accept their fighters losing, somehow they think a win makes them less of an impotent milquetoast nothing.
Look at how far Hooker and Burns have gone since they fought. They're headlining the next 2 cards, Hooker vs Poirier in the top 5, Burns the Welterweight No.1 contender fighting Usman for the title.
Dan is legiiiiit. Dont sleep on my guy
Slept
@@sabbakandegregor9874 bro this was a year ago. Go get yourself something to do
Best knees up the middle in the game, either him or cerrone no question
Would like to see him and Cowboy bang it out in a 5 rounder, Dustin said no, so lets see that fight
4:33 you can see the blood splatter onto his knee
This guy has flare!! Crazy highlight reel, gonna keep an eye out for him going forward
Hooker has been on my radar for years man truly a phenomenal talent and always comes to fight one of the few fighters that is anywhere anyone anytime
Always a fun guy to watch. Always looking for a finish.
Seems like James Vick is getting slapped around by everyone 😁
Hes the homer simpson of mma
when a lanky fighter that cuts alot of weight gets slept 5 fights in then they tend to rack up ko losses
He's moving up to 170 and fighting Niko Price now. Probably gonna go to sleep again.
And Ross Pearson
@@commentconnoisseur1001 he actually has taken very little damage considering probably cause he moves his head well
Edson Barbosa sent a hug...
Pearson is my favorite, very well planned and very well executed
0:42 Ring Girl was like 🤭
She heared that slapping sound
Safe to say she knows it's hooker time
@@ramsy4205 Yes cuz she's a hooker
@@ShuttingRetroM1N3CR4FT just one of the many ways that are making this safe to say
Probably sounded like someone cracked a coconut. Can be quite a disturbing sound for a sexy young big-titted lass to hear.
1:15 was one of the best submissions I have seen
i won't be surprised if this man literally kills somebody how fast he goes for a finish after he knocks someone out cold already he's an absolute unit
Kicks, knees, punches and submissions what can he not do
he is all-rounder, his striking is very good and he is very calm in very situation like not rushing but capitalized the precised counter strike, his takedown defence is very good, most importantly his finishing is too good, he is very fast to change the momentum
So dangerous one of the few fighters who just moves through others shots and counters with power
He is a skilled KO artist, uses his whole body. By knee, by kick, by punch. I can't remember anyone else who has been able to KO people in that many ways.
The Hangman is quite possibly one of the most vicious UFC fighters I’ve seen in a while
So underrated, this man is a real savage. Theres footgae of him fighting a k1 heavyweight kick boxing champion who was the seargent of arms of nz hells angels and he fully held his own. Man is an animal
Who is here after the announcement of Poirier vs Hooker?
Vrent Evramm Garcia can’t wait to see Hooker knock that idiot out
@@tiredoftomorrow012 hows poirier an idiot he's like the nicest dude
Yakob he’s a cry baby and a boring fighter
@@tiredoftomorrow012 he showed nothing but respect when he lost his last fight? and how's he boring, out of his last 11 wins, he has finished 8 of them 7 by ko. Two of those kos on former world champs
Yakob he cries for a rematch against conor when he got knocked out in the first round there’s no reason to rematch
Holy fuck I forgot about that knee to Ross Pearson. That sent him to the shadow realm, purgatory, then back to Fight Night in New Zealand.
Underrated for so long
4:09 dan notices he keeps ducking to wen he throws to avoid taking a hook, counters with deadly knee
Yep great fight iq
This guy is the real deal... how is this the first I'm hearing of him.
Casual
Lightweight is a super deep divison and he lost his big breakout fight to barboza due to a bad gameplan.
Dan & Izzy putting NZ on the map!! lovn it! Eugene must be some coach.. Mr Miagi. Also take my hat off to Dan for opening himself up and sacrificing a hit with a lesser blow, to then simultaneously hit back with a killer. That takes balls & amazing fighting IQ.
Don't forget Alexander The Great
Man its crazy to here the crowds at these events after seeing so many without.. the crowd really brings the energy on fight night.
oooh buddy... i like Al in this fight but he better watch out for them knees!!
Iaquinta gonna get caught by that knee
Unfortunately. I want both guys to win.
Dudes a Badass. That switch hook I think 2nd ko was some of the smoothest shit I've ever seen
That knee to Miller 😬 jes-us christt Also it was satisfying to see him knock out burns. The Hangman is THAT dude. 🔥🔥🔥
"To finish a guy, you have to ko or submit him." Joker 2019
@Mr.EDITS if they gas out they can't choose to quit
3:26 He backed off slowly from Gilbert's punch, maybe it hurt him alittle.
No doesnt matter dan hurt him alot lmao
Dan-f*ckin'-Hooker is a 'Bad Bad Leroy Brown'! Gotta love this guy's heart and skill.
4:04 EUGENE MY MAN! CALLING THE SHOTS RIGHT THERE!!!
CKB: “We’re not here to take part, we’re here to take over.”
Chehoo
1:38 why Herb grab Hooker neck like that though lmao
Cos he's a terrible ref
One of the nicest hooks I've ever seen. He faked the right hand when he ducked and threw a bomb with the left on Vick. Absolute master class thai boxing
Been watching him since 2017 has always been a beast
I could watch Vick getting ko’d everyday! ❤️
@Liyaaqat Gul because he asked for it when he fought Justin Gaethje. He hurled every single insult to the man while not ever knowing the repercussions of his actions. He has to live with the fact that he is the true Homer Simpson of MMA.
MrThatguysmeat not only that, but his coach got involved in a rape and Vick is okay with that.
@Liyaaqat Gul just great the way he gets knocked out nothing personal
Iaquinta has his hands full with Hooker.
A good kickboxer that got into the Mma world
Dan Hooker and Nasrat Haqparast are my fav two rising contenders in LW right now...both of em r gonna b proper stars in the near future
Even though Gaethje is way above him on the rankings I'd love to see the two of them slug it out.
The fact that gilbert didn't even attempt to go for a takedown speaks massively about hookers wrestling defense
Tiger muythai has a great wrestling camp
this was a nice slip on James "the concussioner" Vick 💪
So glad he’s back
He always make sure he gets the last shot in after the knockout🤣
This blows my mind 3:30
All best highlights
This guy is a beast, would love to see him against Gaethje
KNEE TO THE FACE - NEW ZEALAND 🇳🇿 REPRESENT!!
4:08 this was brutal 💣
what a beast!
Very good submissions and knockouts !
Dan "Follow up punch" Hooker.
Have a feeling Iaquinta is getting ko'd by knee
@TayDeezy408WestSide YEET 🤣🤣💀
I think Dans best attribute is how well he listens to his corner. In the James Vick and Ross Pearson fights if listen closely you can actually hear his corner call the combo before Dan throws it and gets the KO. Big ups to CKB, best gym in the world right now.
Great timing!
Damn Ross Pearson getting the short end of these top 5 videos today lmao
i'm so scared: hope this guy won't send Al Laquinta to the hospital
@Ahmad Rozak yeah it was hilarious
sent him back to real-estate sales.
Been a Hooker Fan for ages much love to him. K.O this guy n add to these highlights.
He will be a champion!!
he looks like a he's caught in between weight classes
165 is needed
@@TheLukieBoi1 making 165 is a terrible move for mma and the weight s he looks in between is lightweight and featherweight
USER 1 no way he’s making feather weight he has fought at heavy weight lol
@@dalemason5521 he made featherweight my point is he's too tall for featherweight but next to a guy like barboza or khabib he looks significantly less thick lol. Matchups against guys who are strong for the weight and have wrestling ?or guys that you have to be durable too face are where I think he struggles at lightweight. Its not about the weight he makes its about the inhabitants of those weightclasses body types he may not be near his best at 45 but ortega can be.
@@USER-qs9od dude he's big for the qeight class he just fell victim to barbozas leg kicks, eat 1 too many and your done
Hooker always entertains but iaquinta has a good chin I see a win by decision for al
Haha NOPE!
He's on an elite team, with an elite coach - already has the heart of a champion and fights like a F*#@ing savage
Love his right knee...
1:10 imagine if he did that to khabib. khabib loves to push you near cage then explode with takedown.
Khabib would never be in that position, he’d make sure to not let dan get his guard
He needs to learn some more self control after a knock-down
Mate it's the hurt business both opponents signed contracts and knew they were gonna get hurt. "Maybe go back to soccer" -Jorge Masvidal
Hell no, kill or be killed
Timing great with this guy
Dan has a serious chin on him. Took those shots from Burns like they were nothing.
