Every Lineup Fighter: Arman Tsarukyan, $9,500, (-625)
Tsarukyan already boasts a 41% knockout rate and 23% submission rate in his wins. His striking output sits at 3.79 significant strikes landed per minute, while his strike defense is strong — he allows just 1.84 significant strikes landed against per minute. Hooker, meanwhile, is more of a pure striker and tends to brawl and open himself up. In a matchup where Hooker stands 6'0″ and Tsarukyan is 5'7″, the difference in leg-attack, takedown setup and pace all work to Tsarukyan’s favor. Tsarukyan is going to wear Hooker down with takedowns and top-position ground-and-pound, culminating in a stoppage late in rounds 3-4, not just a decision. Book it.
