Hokit's Sith Act Gets Him Kicked Out

At a recent UFC press event in Newark, heavyweight contender Josh Hokit made an entrance in his characteristic 'sith' attire, drawing derision from the crowd. His disruptive behavior escalated when he engaged in a verbal altercation with lightweight champion Ilia Topuria, who appeared to be defending Alex Pereira. Hokit's provocations, including getting too close to Pereira and engaging Topuria, prompted UFC President Dana White to intervene. The situation culminated in Topuria demanding Hokit's removal. White subsequently ended the press conference early as Hokit was escorted off stage, and he was not present for the scheduled face-offs.
