Chase Hooper calls out Jim Miller after big win at UFC 310
In front of a raucous crowd at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, Chase Hooper produced a sublime performance to defeat Clay Guida.
After showing off his ever-improving punches, the gifted grappler recalled what drove him to dance, giving up a sweet submission to defeat a man 17 years his senior.
In the aftermath of the match, Hooper's focus shifted to potential opponents with whom he could share the cage next time.
And at the post-fight press conference, a member of the media introduced Jim Miller, which seemed to whet the 25-year-old's appetite.

Hooper replied: “I don't see why not. I felt the same way about Clay Guida; he's an older guy for sure, but he still does the thing. He's still out here fighting these young guys, and he's doing great.
“Jim is still oppressing guys. That would be a good fight. If it hadn't been a stacked card like this, I feel like Clay and I could have been on the main card at many events.
“That would be a fun one. Why not?”
