MMASucka staff picks are locked in for the weekend. Later this evening, June 27, will see UFC on ESPN 12 go down from the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada. The main card will begin at 8:00pm ET (5:00pm PT) on both ESPN and ESPN+.
The Fights
A thrilling lightweight showdown will cap off the night between top-ranked Dustin Poirier and Dan Hooker. Poirier made his rise to the top by winning the divisional interim strap in April last year over Max Holloway. Although falling short for the real belt to Khabib Nurmagomedov in September, “The Diamond” always remains a force to be reckoned with inside the octagon.
