Dan Hooker defends controversial one-minute scraps (exclusive)

Check out our world-exclusive interview here.

Dan Hooker dropped by The Morning Rumble for a 20-minute chat, and not only was it a good one, but also a world-exclusive.

He opened up about why he’s running these backyard scraps - giving convicts and ex-criminals a chance to fight, use it as therapy, and let some of that built-up aggression out.

Elsewhere in the chat, he also pointed out how female fighters over 65kg have nowhere to compete, and spoke on the police unfairly arresting Fight Dog after a fight that had already been cleared as therapy.

On top of that, Dan shared what it’s really like stepping into the role of promoter, and plenty more. Watch the full chat above, or listen to the poddy below.
