Hockit compares himself to Derrick Lewis, Ian Garry and Song Yadong

Josh Hockit continued his unusual promotional approach by comparing himself to several UFC fighters while claiming superiority. He stated he is like Derrick Lewis but not as slow-witted, like Ian Garry but not as soft, and like Song Yadong but with superior attributes. Hockit concluded by saying he embodies everything those fighters are not, calling himself "The Incredible Hawk." The comments are part of his ongoing bizarre promotional campaign ahead of UFC 327. His behavior has generated attention and created an unusual dynamic heading into his fight with Curtis Blaydes.
