Chase Hooper Looks to Extend Win Streak Against Battle-Tested Hernandez at UFC 319

UFC Lightweight Chase Hooper is riding a five-fight win streak heading into this Saturday’s UFC 319 matchup against Alexander Hernandez. Having entered the UFC at just 19 years old, Hooper has won over fans with both his sense of humor and his grit in the face of adversity. He currently sits as a -280 favorite over Hernandez, who has won only five of his last ten fights.

Some fans may remember Hernandez’s controversial debut knockout over the highly respected Beneil Dariush, where he faked a glove touch and landed what many considered a cheap shot before securing a 42-second KO.
