Share

We’ll show you how to get a UFC Fight Night live stream from anywhere in the world so you don’t miss a second of the action in the Octagon.

The UFC will hold one more event at its UFC Apex facility in Las Vegas this weekend before the promotion takes a short break before heading off to Abu Dhabi for its next four events at Fight Island.

The main event of this Saturday’s UFC Fight Night will see Dustin “The Diamond” Poirier take on Dan “The Hangman” Hooker in a lightweight bout.

Poirier is currently ranked third in the UFC’s lightweight division and the 31 year old American hasn’t seen a win in the Octagon since April of last year when he defeated Max Holloway by decision during round 5. In his last fight against Khabib Nurmagomedov, Poirier lost by submission in round 3. Can Poirier turn the tide and defeat Hooker at UFC Fight Night this Saturday?

Hooker has 10 wins by knockout under his belt and the 30 year old New Zealander is currently ranked fifth in the UFC’s lightweight division. Unlike Poirier, Hooker won his last fight in the Octagon against Paul Felder by decision during round 5 back in February of this year. Hooker will put his three-fight winning streak on the line when he goes up against Poirier this Saturday.

Elsewhere on the card, Mike Perry will take on Mickey Gall in a welterweight bout, Brendan Allen will go up against Kyle Daukaus in a middleweight bout, Gian Villante will face off against Maurice Greene in a heavyweight bout and Sean Woodson and Julian Erosa will meet in the Octagon for a catchweight bout.
