UFC 226, which already stands out as the most stacked card of the year thus far, keeps getting better. The latest dynamite booking to be added to the lineup is a lightweight scrap pitting New Zealand’s Dan Hooker against Brazil’s Gilbert Burns.<\/p>\n

This bout was first reported by Stuff<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Hooker will enter this fight on an impressive three-fight streak, composed of a knee-induced knockout of Ross Pearson, a submission of Marc Diakiese, and yet another knee-induced knockout of Jim Miller. His last loss occurred in November of 2016, when he gave up a decision to Jason Knight. Hooker is 16-7 overall, and 6-3 in the Octagon.<\/p>\n

Burns, meanwhile, is on an impressive streak of his own. Though he is known for his world class Brazilian jiu-jitsu, both of his latest wins have been thunderous one-punch knockouts, which is undeniably thanks to his work with renowned kickboxing coach Henri Hooft. Burns’s last loss occured in September of 2016 when he lost a decision to fellow Brazilian\u00a0Michel Prazeres. He’s 14-2 overall, 6-2 in the Octagon.<\/p>\n

UFC 226 will be headlined by a heavyweight title super fight between divisional champion Stipe Miocic, and reigning UFC light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier. The card will also feature a featherweight title fight, as champion Max Holloway takes on surging contender Brian “T-City” Ortega.<\/p>\n

Other features of the stacked UFC 226 card include a heavyweight showdown between Francis Ngannou and Derrick Lewis, a light heavyweight bout between Gokhan Saki and Khalil Rountree, a bantamweight bout between Rob Font and Raphael Assuncao, a welterweight bout between Yancy Medeiros and Mike Perry, a middleweight bout between Uriah Hall and Paulo Costa, and a lightweight bout between Anthony Pettis and Michael Chiesa. As stated above, the card is\u00a0stacked.<\/em> It all goes down July 7 in Last Vegas, Nevada.<\/p>\n
