They needed to feed Diakiese a win after that Drakkarr Klose debacle.

Hooker is not someone that gets fed to people. He's on and off, but a pretty well rounded fighter

I don't think he'll be anywhere near a TD in this fight though.
If he does though I don't think he can keep Diakiese there.
And Standing Diakiese will run away with the fight.

If they want to continue to build Diakiese and allow him to rebound from his loss to Klose Hooker should give him that chance while still being an entertaining, competitive fight.
Perhaps adding “really” is a bit hyperbolic but on a smaller level I think it’s good matchmaking.
