Dan Hooker compliments Jake Paul’s diss track aimed at the UFC and Dana White
Dan Hooker who’s set to make his Octagon return later this year against Arnold Allen seems to appreciate Jake Paul’s diss video.
‘The Hangman’ commends the effort he put behind making the video and admires Jake’s understanding of his audience.
Speaking with Lowkick MMA the UFC lightweight says
“I did see the video. I understand what the guy’s doing. He put some serious effort into these things,” Hooker said of Paul’s diss track. “I can’t fathom spending the money to produce a diss track like that but you can definitely understand why he’s making millions and millions of dollars boxing-because [of his] understanding of how people think and what people love to click on is next level.”
Hooker will be looking forward to bouncing back from his devastating loss to Islam Makhachev at UFC 267.
Say what you want about Jake Paul, he surely understands the fight landscape and many inside the MMA community believe he can bring positive changes to the UFC’s unfair treatment of their fighters.
After having given fans a ton of entertainment in the lightweight division, 6ft tall Dan Hooker is set to make his return to the featherweight division in a featured bout against Arnold Allen.
A fan recently took to Twitter to express his desire to see a fight between Hooker and Ortega go down in 2022.
