Chase Hooper & Alden Coria take UFC Oklahoma City victory laps

Jim Norton and Matt Serra kick off today’s episode by unpacking the biggest takeaways from UFC Oklahoma City, including Dricus Du Plessis’ bounce-back win over Kamaru Usman, what that result means for Sean Strickland’s next title defense, and where Usman goes from here.Then, Chase Hooper joins the show fresh off his first-round submission win over Mitch Ramirez. Hooper walks the guys through his rear-naked choke, opens up about the pressure of entering a fight on back-to-back stoppage losses, and discusses how baby No. 2 being set to arrive at any given moment affects his timeline for his next fight.After more UFC Oklahoma City reaction — including Christian Leroy Duncan’s rise, Fatima Kline’s impressive win, and Tommy McMillen’s splashy arrival — Alden Coria stops by following his win over Stewart Nicoll. Now 3-0 in the UFC, Coria explains to a curious Matt Serra how the rush of fighting in the Octagon compares to Coria’s exhilarating experience of climbing hundreds of feet into the sky as a cell phone tower technician.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
