Watch the Insane Moment UFC Star Chokes a Radio Presenter Unconscious Despite Him tapping Out

Dan Hooker is sharpening his tools while recuperating from an arm injury, with the UFC star choking out a radio presenter this week.

The Kiwi star is on the sidelines following surgery on his arm but is staying busy with occasional media appearances in his homeland.

On Wednesday, the Hangman demonstrated just how lethal his submission game is during an appearance on The Morning Rumble.

The UFC lightweight contender was asked to drill a triangle choke on producer Mitch Farr.

The charismatic producer was twice put in submissions and tapped out, before boasting that he hadn't suffered at all during both episodes.

Hooker decided to take things up a notch on his third effort, ignoring Farr's tapping hand to choke the producer unconscious.

A disorientated Farr didn't seem too taken aback by the experience and was all smiles.

'I'm good,' he said when asked by his colleagues.

Hooker's bid to end 2023 on a high was cut short after an arm injury forced him out of a fight against fellow veteran Bobby Green on December 2.

He has won his last two fights, including his memorable split-decision win over Jalin Turner at UFC 290.

The 35-year-old is targeting a return to the Octagon in May next year.
