Following his win over Jim Miller at UFC 314, Hooper admitted he’s no longer the teenage prospect coming in wide-eyed.He began fighting at 16, joined the UFC through the Contender Series, and has now fought seasoned veterans like Miller. Training with younger teammates, many still in their teens or early twenties, has made Hooper more aware of the time he’s spent in the game. Speaking at the post-fight press conference, Hooper said:“I feel like I’ve been in this business for a while. I started fighting at 16. 9 years later here we are. I do feel old, I do feel beat up a little bit, but that’s the business... I feel like more the outside commentators they like to bag on the UFC, but honestly this company’s given me everything. When I fought on the Contender Series I had like $34 bucks in my bank account." [H/t: Cageside Press]He added:“Now I have a wife, a baby, a house. This is providing. These couple times a year fighting I’m able to provide for my wife and daughter. I’m doing it for them now. It’s having a purpose and it’s gone from where it started out like ego and paying the bills to now doing it for them. Feels good. Feels like things are going the way they should. You don’t get the storybook thing very often in life, but I feel like we’re here.”Check out Chae Hooper's comments below:
