The German fighter took to social media to publicly appeal for his visa approval. On Twitter, Haqparast wrote:
Haqparast also revealed that he has gone to great lengths to make sure he’ll get his visa approved on time but to no avail. He said he reached out to the embassy and even drove for six hours to Frankfurt, but his visa hasn’t been approved yet.
Check out Haqparast’s Twitter post below:
Nasrat Haqparast is scheduled to take on Dan Hooker at UFC 266 on September 25 in Las Vegas, Nevada. With Haqparast experiencing trouble with his travel clearances, however, it’s still unclear whether he will be cleared in time for Saturday’s event.
Dan Hooker gets his visa in time for his fight against Nasrat Haqparast
Lightweight standout Dan Hooker has publicly addressed the U.S. embassy in New Zealand to ask for his visa to be expedited. Last week, the Kiwi fighter took to Twitter to write:
Hooker’s appeal seems to have worked, as he recently revealed that he got his U.S. visa in time. ‘The Hangman’ posted a video of himself on Twitter proudly showing off his travel passes.
With Nasrat Haqparast experiencing the same problems Hooker encountered, there’s a possibility that ‘The Hangman’ will fight a short-notice replacement.
