Blaydes and Hockit face off for first time ahead of UFC 327

Curtis Blaydes and Josh Hockit held their first staredown before their scheduled fight at UFC 327. The face-off comes amid Hockit's increasingly erratic promotional behavior leading up to the bout. Blaydes, a heavyweight contender, will face the unpredictable Hockit in what has become a highly unusual build-up. The post invited fans to indicate which fighter they support heading into the heavyweight matchup.
