The rivalry between Arman Tsarukyan and Dan Hooker is far from over. After Hooker criticized Arman for pulling out of UFC 311 at the last minute, it was Arman’s turn to fire back. When Hooker withdrew just two weeks before his highly anticipated fight against Justin Gaethje, Arman wasted no time mocking him. This back-and-forth is only intensifying the heat between the two fighters.
When news broke about Dan Hooker pulling out of UFC 313, the fight community was in shock. As many fighters stepped up to challenge Justin Gaethje, Arman Tsarukyan, who had been simmering after Hooker’s jab about his back injury before the Islam Makhachev fight, seized the opportunity. With the tables turned, Arman took to X to mock Hooker, saying Karma doesn’t miss. He also called out Hooker, labeling him a big mouth with glass hands, suggesting he should stick to talking instead of fighting.
He said, “Karma doesn’t miss. Big mouth, glass hands – maybe just stick to talking instead of fighting, @danthehangman.”
