Arman Tsarukyan disclosed that an offer was extended to Justin Gaethje for a fight against him, but the American combatant turned it down. Following this, Dan Hooker accepted the challenge.
“I was informed that Gaethje said `no,` whereas Hooker readily agreed. While Gaethje would have been my preferred opponent, ultimately, it makes no difference to me. Both are easy victories. Gaethje clearly recognizes the potential for defeat if he were to face me,” Tsarukyan remarked.
