Ultimate Fighting Championship lightweight contender Dan Hooker is knocking on the door of the upper echelon of arguably the promotion’s deepest division after his win against former title challenger Al Iaquinta at UFC 243.

After his dominant win, “The Hangman” called out former interim champ Dustin Poirier. Poirier recently talked with MMAJunkie.com and said the prospect of fighting the New Zealander doesn’t interest him at this point and is after a bout where there is something at stake.
