Prior to his enormous scrap against Jim Miller on UFC 314, Chase Hooper made a bizarre comparison between an MMA hunter and another profession.
Although he is only 25 years old, Chase Hooper is already considered a veteran in the UFC, on the way to his 11th fight in the promotion since debuting in 2019.
The coming Saturday at UFC 314 in Miami, 'The Dream' Hooper colleague UFC veteran Jim Miller, who made his debut in professional MMA when Hooper was only 5 years old and his UFC debut when Hooper was only 9 years old.
After he participated in UFC 300 last April and became the only hunter who participated in the UFC 100, UFC 200 and UFC 300, Miller scored a new entry on Damon Jackson on UFC 309 on UFC 309 last November.

Chase Hooper compares an MMA hunter to be a stripper
In anticipation of his big fight against 'A-10' Miller on UFC 314, Hooper and his partner have welcomed a baby in the world.
Although the wife of Hooper also has a background in martial arts, like a purple belt in Jiu-Jitsu, Hooper does not want his child to grow up like a professional hunter, who compares it bizarre with a stripper.
“Hopefully, no fighting for one of them. Personally, I just don't want my daughter to become a stripper or an MMA hunter, that's a kind of similar level like me,” said Hooper in the Ariel Helwani show.
“I mean, you dance around in your underwear for the entertainment of people, are you not? MMA will certainly get more there, but if I had a son and he wanted to fight that would be different, but a daughter thinks you are just a natural (instinct that), you want to protect them.
“Everyone in this sport will tell you that if I fight for my entire career to take care of my family and then turn around and do the same, you feel that you have left a bit on the table, I think they will mean they will not have to fight in the future, they don't have to fight, they don't have to fide their physical and brain honey in the future.
Chase Hooper predicts Paddy Pimblett vs Michael Chandler
Share the card with Hooper's lightweight Kanshebbers Paddy Pimblett and Michael Chandler, while Pimblett puts himself in the title with a victory.
Fans have questioned the matchmaking of the UFC with regard to this fight and claim that it has been compiled in the hope that 'The Baddy' will beat Chandler.
“I think this is the easiest fight that they could have given Paddy in the top 10. If we get the Michael Chandler who fought against Charles Oliveira, the one with minimal struggling and not using his wrestling, I think Paddy takes it, probably by decision,” predicted Hooper.
