Beneil Dariush considers Dan Hooker as a perfect option for his next fight.
Dariush (22-6-1 MMA, 16-6 UFC) was to return to Renato Moicano to the UFC 311 in January, but did not end up participating after Moicano was withdrawn to face the light champion Islam Makhachev in the main event. Dariush also got their hands to intervene, but the UFC finally went with Moicano.
Moicano (20-6-1 mma, 12-6 UFC) ended up being quickly subjected by Makhachev. Dariush, who was paid for his bag, said the promotion had promised to catch up. He would agree to reprogram the fight of Moicano, even if he would not classify this as a reward.
“They mentioned it with regard to the reduction of this fight, and I am not against it because I am not in a situation where I could be:” Oh, I want to fight this guy “after two defeats,” Dariush told MMA Junkie.
“So, if it’s the fight they want to make, it’s good. I just thought myself when Dana (White) said: “We are going to catch up with Dariush:” I thought it would be someone classified in fact higher than me, not behind me. So it doesn’t matter.
Hooker (24-12 MMA, 14-8 UFC) was to face Justin Gaethje during the UFC 313 co-receiver event on Saturday, but was forced to go out after fracturing his hand. He underwent surgery and aims to return to UFC 317 on June 28 against Arman Tsarukyan.
If Hooker does not get this fight, Dariush is ready to face him in this chronology.
“Dan Hooker would be ideal because he is classified in front of me, and if he tries to return to International Combat Week, it would be an ideal moment,” said Dariush. “It’s perfectly good with me. I would be very happy with this configuration if that’s what they do. »»
Dariush also likes the way he corresponds to Hooker, who is on a sequence of victories with three fights.
“I have better tools everywhere,” said Dariush. “I think I can go beyond it, I can exceed it, I even think that I can go beyond it if it is a three -round fight. I don’t see where he would have an advantage over me.
