Dan Hooker wants to fight Conor McGregor just to troll Michael Chandler

Fresh from his impressive decision win over perennial contender, Mateusz Gamrot over the course of last weekend on the main card of UFC 305, newly-minted number five ranked challenger, Dan Hooker wants to steal a fight with former two-weight best, Conor McGregor next – just to spite Michael Chandler.

Hooker, now in the midst of an impressive three-fight winning run, turned in a close, split decision (29-28, 28-29, 29-28) victory over Polish contender, Gamrot over the course of three rounds in Perth over the course of last weekend.
