Dan Hooker knocked out James Vick in the first round to get back into the win column on Saturday at UFC San Antonio. It was phenomenal performance, and Hooker knew he had to prove himself after a brutal loss Edson Barboza this past December.
“I felt like I had a lot to prove, I missed this sport so much. Seven or eight months I had since my last fight, longest layoff of my career, I missed it. Even when I was walking out, I was just soaking it all in because there’s nothing better.
