The UFC unveiled the official poster for its Sept. 5 event in Paris, where lightweight veteran Dan Hooker meets highly touted French prospect Salahdine Parnasse in the main event at Accor Arena.
Hooker enters on a two-fight skid, both by stoppage. The New Zealander was finished by Benoit Saint Denis at UFC 325 and submitted by second-ranked Arman Tsarukyan at UFC Qatar before that, per MMA Mania. Before the losses, he reeled off three straight wins over Claudio Puelles, Jalin Turner and Mateusz Gamrot.
