Dan Hooker is all set to lock horns with Arman Tsarukyan this weekend at UFC Qatar. Both Hooker and Tsarukyan are coming out of injuries. ‘The Hangman’ broke his hand earlier this year while sparring and had to pull out of the Justin Gaethje fight. On the other hand, Arman Tsarukyan injured his back while cutting weight before UFC 311 and was not able to fight champion Islam Makhachev.
Ahead of this weekend’s fight night, ‘The Hangman’ appeared in an interview with The Mac Life. During the sit-down, he revealed that a massage therapist told Hooker’s friend that she saw Tsarukyan earlier and could not apply pressure on his back because his back was injured.
