UFC fighter Josh Hokit has gotten a bit more cringe ahead of his UFC Miami fight against Curtis Blaydes.
Last year, Hokit went viral after being initially signed to the UFC following a bizarre rant on Dana White’s Contender Series.
“Me and my partner Dana White and I have decided to get rid of this unentertaining heavyweight division, and instead we’re going to invent the incredible Hok division, but my opponents won’t be these lazy, boring heavyweights, my opponents will be sex traffickers, pedophiles, rapists, hell, you can even throw the transgenders in there.”
“Line them all up. One by one, I’ll give them a good, old American beatdown inside the Octagon to show the world there are consequences for these types of behaviors in America.”
“I see all these heavyweights getting cut…they bring nothing to the table, most of them are just overweight fat guys, their fights are boring, they don’t even speak English. I feel like that should be a criteria, you speak English, and then you can be in the UFC.”
Josh Hokit lists the people he wants to fight:
Rapists
Sex traffickers
Murderers
PedophilesAnd then says “hell you can throw the trans in there”

On Wednesday, during UFC 327’s media day, Hokit debuted a new Mexican persona and got into a heated altercation with Jiri Prochazka, during which he threatened him with a lightsaber in the media hotel’s hall.

Hokit would later go on an unhinged rant under his Mexican persona, leaving media members scratching their heads.
🇲🇽 😐 Josh Hokit was asked about Jiri Prochazka backstage altercation and he chose to keep mexican character.
He said he’ll keep this character from now on.
