It sells fights and builds anticipation. But sometimes, the verbal jabs cross into personal territory. This is exactly what&rsquo;s happening between Arman Tsarukyan and Dan Hooker. Their rivalry has escalated from professional disagreements to deeply personal insults. What started as typical fighter banter has evolved into one of the most heated feuds in the lightweight division.<\/p><p>The latest chapter in this ongoing rivalry began when Dan Hooker was forced to withdraw from his UFC 313 co-main event fight against Justin Gaethje due to a hand injury. This was a massive opportunity for the New Zealand fighter, who had been building momentum with three consecutive victories.<\/p><p>For Hooker, this withdrawal wasn&rsquo;t just disappointing, it was heartbreaking. The &lsquo;Hangman&rsquo; desperately wanted to compete despite his injury. However, medical staff wouldn&rsquo;t clear him. That&rsquo;s when Tsarukyan, the top-ranked lightweight contender, saw his chance to strike.<\/p><p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/justin-gaethjes-opponent-revealed-ufc-313-co-main-event-gets-saved-by-much-anticipated-rematch\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Justin Gaethje&rsquo;s Opponent Revealed: UFC 313 Co-Main Event Gets Saved By Much Anticipated Rematch!<\/a><\/strong><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Arman Tsarukyan Takes A Shot<\/h2><p>Tsarukyan wasted no time in going after Hooker. He posted a scathing message on social media after the news of his withdrawal came out.<\/p><blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong><em>&ldquo;Karma doesn&rsquo;t miss.

Back in January, when Tsarukyan had to withdraw from his own fight due to a back injury, Hooker had made comments about Tsarukyan&rsquo;s privileged background. He had suggested that his father&rsquo;s wealth somehow made him soft. For Tsarukyan, seeing Hooker forced to withdraw from such a high-profile fight felt like poetic justice.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dan Hooker&rsquo;s Response<\/h2><p>But Dan Hooker isn&rsquo;t one to take insults lying down, even with a broken hand. The &lsquo;Hangman&rsquo; fired back with a response that was even more personal and cutting. In the comments of Tsarukyan&rsquo;s post, Hooker replied:<\/p><blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong><em>&ldquo;If only your dad pulled out quicker than your last fight.

What makes this rivalry particularly interesting is that both men have expressed willingness to fight each other in the past. This kind of bad blood typically translates to exciting matchups in the octagon, where personal animosity fuels the competitive fire.<\/p><p>Both fighters find themselves in interesting career positions right now. Tsarukyan sits at #1 in the lightweight rankings, potentially one fight away from a title shot. Hooker, ranked #6, has been rebuilding his career with impressive wins over tough competition like Mateusz Gamrot. Their career trajectories and ongoing feud make a future matchup almost inevitable once Hooker recovers from his injury. <\/p><p>The UFC matchmakers surely recognize the promotional gold they have in this genuine dislike between two top fighters!<\/p><p><strong>(Image Credit: Stephen R.
