  1. Some great psycho quotes

    On 145lb

    > My mind is so much stronger than my body, that I end up in these situations, where I’m like “this is easy, I can do this again… make the 145 for fun in three weeks”

    On fight bookings

    > The Arnold Allen one I didn’t even ask where it was, which was a major flaw in the plan when I found out it was close to 40 hours away

    On his debut

    > my knee pops like three or four times… I remember thinking in my head… “fuck it, let it snap, I’ll put it out and imma hit him with it”

  3. Dan is a much better fighter than his recent record would lead you to believe. I just wish he would fight at 170 where he belongs. The dude is literally as big as Izzy, and clearly the weight bully thing isn’t working out. I think he could he top 10 at at WW easily.

  4. We cant forget how crazy his quarantine and travel for the Chandler fight that ended in seconds was. Its been pretty downhill from there so it’s really good to see him be positive. I’m always rooting for the hooker.

  6. I feel like Hooker hasn’t given Allen enough credit for his win. Yeah i know he was at 145lbs. However before the fight took place he was like yeah I can make this weight easily.

    I feel like Allen would kick his ass even at 155 to be honest.
