Mokaev is unproven. Let’s see what he can do. Think he gets a DEC win here though.

He stands in a wide stance which can leave him exposed to leg kicks though he does have very good foot movement. I know his fight vs Jordan Rinaldi is 3 years ago but in it he struggled a bit with getting past the longer reach of Rinaldi even though it was only 2 inches difference.
Hooker is a much better striker than Rinaldi and has a 5 inch reach advantage.
If it was a small cage I'd say that would favor Allen as he could more easilly mix in clinchwork or even go for a takedown but they are fighting in a big cage for this one.
My main problem with Hooker is I think he was already killing himself getting to 155 and he's been in war after war which will take a toll on the body even though he's only 32. Allen is on the opposite trajectory but only fighting once a year makes it tough to get a reliable read on his form.
I think this match deserves to be a pickem although I lean sligthly in the favor of Allen on balance. Weigh ins could definitely sway me one way or the other.
