The ordering process for Ultimate Fighting Championship pay-per-views has changed: UFC 247 is only available on ESPN+ in the U.S.
Dan Hooker enjoyed a stealthy rise on the Ultimate Fighting Championship lightweight ladder and now finds himself knocking on the door as a dark horse contender at 155 pounds. “The Hangman” celebrates his 30th birthday on Feb. 13.
