LAS VEGAS -- The UFC will fire up its Apex facility for the fifth consecutive weekend Saturday with a UFC Fight Night main event featuring Dustin Poirier and Dan Hooker.
Poirier (25-6) will be making his first appearance since a failed lightweight title bid against Khabib Nurmagomedov in September. Nurmagomedov won by third-round submission in Abu Dhabi.
Hooker (20-8) will be fighting for the second time this year. He's coming off a split decision win against Paul Felder in February. It was a brutal fight, which many thought Felder won.
