With a victory over Al Iaquinta on Saturday at UFC 243, Dan Hooker immediately set his sights on a bigger target. “The Hangman” called out former interim champion Dustin Poirier, which “The Diamond” instantly turned down.
Hooker found out about Poirier’s response when a media member asked him about it during the post-fight scrum.
“He’s going to fight who?” Hooker said with a laugh (transcript by MMA Junkie). “If he wants to sit around chasing leprechauns, that’s his own problem. If he wants a real fight and he’ll take it, he knows where to find me.
