Dan Hooker vs Charles Oliveira, WHY?

Like he's implying, if this is just a set up to rotate Charles back into a fight with Islam that he doesn't want....then no I will pass on that. I want new elite blood entering the already established upper group. So we can get fresh match ups

[@Icewallowcome123]

I can see Dan having a few of these fights 1. Charles because he’s already faced everyone exept dan in the top 5 2. Justin coming off a loss and it’ll be a crazy fight 3. Dustin rematch it’s the right time for it 4. Chandler rematch because conor isn’t coming back this year 5. Max for the bmf if he loses to ilia Do any of these sound good or am I delusional?

Arman vs Poirier in late 2024 and Hooker vs Gaethje in early 2025. Enough of the rematches in LW, these guys have fought each other too many times and these two matchups actually make sense.

[@Razear]

Hooker is now ranked #5 in the division and with a win over a former champ ranked above him, why wouldn't he be deserving of a title shot?

[@dreymorneau]

If Arman beats Islam it would make sense, but how he lost to Islam the first time I feel like it would be a tough sell to book a rematch

The way ufc treats the rankings why not give dan a title fight with another great fight

I think if either one of them get two more wins one of them should get a title shot. How quick it came out though is kinda strange for sure.

[@DonMIFC]

Let me see. Dan, the guy who never quits vs Charles, the guy that quits every 2nd fight. Easy W for Hooker

It's a great fight bc any fight Dan Hooker is in, I'll watch. Charles is a high profile, former champion, opponent. What's not to love? Maybe Charles wouldn't like it bc it doesn't carry the same weight beating Dan 4-5yrs ago would be.

[@Sosapotence3001990]

Ofc an Olivera fight would be on PPV, but I think Gaethje vs Hooker is the #1 contender fight (after arman ofc)

[@davidstefanovski5991]

Cause Charles is the G.O.A.T !!!

[@Thefletchfactor]

What’s interesting is if Charles doesn’t want to fight Islam.. and I tend to agree that’s true.. why not move up to 170? It’s a horrible weight cut for Charles anyway.

[@amhawk8742]

Dan could very easily fight for a title if he beats Charles. I'd be surprised if that fight isn't for a number 1 contendership. Dan is the only guy currently ranked in the top 10 of the LW division who won his last fight apart from Holloway. With a win over the number two ranked guy who's a former champ, he would definitely have a claim to a title shot. If he won he'd have the longest current win streak in the division (4) apart from Paddy who's been fight washed fighters.

[@loagz973]

I want to see the Charles vs Dan more than the other options. I think they might have been looking to book this right away because Dan called out Charles in the past, and announced a fake fight against Charles for UFC 305.

[@davidbell4626]

December, T-mobile arena main event, DDP vs Strickland and co main Belal vs Shavkat..........
