'The Hangman' is going on and he already has a goal date and opponent for his return to the Octagon later this year.
In just a few days, Vecht fans would have had to walk hooker to face Justin Gaethje in an absolute war on UFC 313.
The mixed martial arts gods were promised violence in the Co-Main event, but unfortunately the plans fell apart when Hooker withdrew out of the fight because of an injured hand.
It will now be Rafael Fiziev who will record Gaethje in Las Vegas on March 8 on March 8 in a rematch of their incredible collision at UFC 286 two years ago.
Regarding the wounded New -Zeelander, Hooker already has UFC 317 in mind for his next outing and it was not long before he identified a potential opponent.
Dan Hooker shares the image of injured hand and Arman Tsarukyan calls for UFC 317
Dan Hooker has had a number of important injury problems during his career, but he is also not the kind of hunter that has hindered a few bumps and scratches.
With Fight Night in the T-Mobile Arena only a few sleeps away, 'The Hangman' shared the next grizzly photo of his hand after the operation.
In a recent performance at the UFC show of Sky Sports Nieuw -Zeeland, Hooker spoke about what the next one is now the recovery process is going on.
When the news came out that he had withdrawn from the fight, a colleague -light weight competition was quickly criticized.
Arman Tsarukyan also missed a huge game because of an injury when he withdrew from the main event of UFC 311 and his Rematch with 155 pounds Islam Makhachev champion the day before it would take place in January.
There has always been tension between Tsarukyan and Hooker who tackled 'The Hangman' in a recent clip where he revealed that he would like to fight the best competition on UFC 317 on 28 June.
Not for the first time Hooker made several references to Tsarukyan's video with Nina Drama on UFC 311 Fight Week.
“He is coming up with me this week, but yes, when you go back, he does an interview with Nina Drama where he actually crawls on her, as if it is strange and many people know that her husband is also the cameraman, which makes it even more creepy. Do you think your father is just rich and you are a UFC hunter, this woman will deceive her husband for you?
“Like, this boy is unreal Bro but another loss for him. I would like to fight him if I come back, International Fight Week, I will kick Arman in the Monobrow. He waxes it, we all know that. Let it grow, son. “
Then Hooker could now be different chess movements
Knowing then Hooker and the kind of hunter he is, apparently he apparently does not like Arman Tsarukyan and would therefore like to fight him.
From a strategic point of view, however, this is a really good step of 'The Hangman' to take advantage of the feud between them to bring themselves into a position to fight the top candidate in the division that has still received his title shot.
The Justin Gaethje fight was perhaps more attractive for the fans, but 'the highlight' has been arranged lower, coming from a loss and, as Hooker recognized in the structure of the fight, would bring him through hell for more than 25 minutes.
Tsarukyan is perhaps even a more difficult fight for Hooker, but the commitment is higher and the chance of career -made damage seems to be much lower than the fight of the annual candidate that everyone expected on March 8.
