The UFC has to find a replacement for Dan Hooker to face Justin Gaethje at UFC 313 on March 8, or the card’s value will take a dip.
‘Ataman’ has been actively pursing a return to the Octagon having not fought since suffering an injury in his main event clash with Mateusz Gamrot in September of 2023. His fight before that was a majority decision loss to Gaethje at UFC 286 in London with both men unsurprisingly pocketing a fight of the night bonus.
There are rarely any guarantees in combat sports but with some matchups, they’re certified homeruns from the moment that the two names are put down on paper. That’s exactly what fans were expecting at UFC 313 on March 8 in the five-round co-main event bout between Dan Hooker and Justin Gaethje.
Two top UFC lightweights have offered to step in and fight Justin Gaethje in place of Dan Hooker at UFC 313 next month.
