Our Mateusz Gamrot vs. Dan Hooker predictions believe 'The Gamer' can withstand Hooker's onslaught to pick up the victory.
Dan Hooker can strike with the best of them, but Gamrot has the ability to outlast his punches and do enough to secure a decision victory.This bout features two fighters who couldn’t take a backward step if they wanted to, though Gamrot’s varied skill set may save him from calamity.
Gamrot has good striking and can grapple, but he’s also chinny and fearless — far from an ideal mix. In his last fight against , he was nearly done in with a first-round head kick from Rafael Dos Anjos in his last bout, but he managed to switch gears and get the 40-year-old on the ground 11 times before going back to his striking in the third round to secure the victory.
Granted, Hooker only lost to elite fighters and Islam Makhachev during that downturn, and he’s looked solid in wins over Claudio Puelles and Jalin Turner since then. He's coming off a one year layoff, whereas Gamrot has fought twice during that span. Gamrot might have his mental lapses, but he ultimately sticks to his game plan and finds a way to win. I can see Gamrot testing the waters early, tasting Hooker’s power and then opting to relentlessly clinch and grind him down like he did in his last fight. Hooker will threaten the upset, but he’ll run out of time to pull it off.Gamrot is vulnerable early on in a fight, but he gets stronger as the fight goes on and does a good job of adjusting his approach to suit the flow of the fight.
