Josh Hockett continued his pre-fight verbal campaign by comparing himself to several UFC fighters. He claimed to be like Derrick Lewis but smarter, like Ian Garry but tougher, and made a crude comparison to Song Yadong. Hockett referred to himself as "The Incredible Hawk" and positioned himself as superior to all three fighters. This represents another installment in Hockett's unconventional promotional approach ahead of UFC 327. The comments targeted Lewis, Garry, and Song despite none of them being involved in his upcoming fight. Hockett's behavior has been characterized as increasingly bizarre in the lead-up to his bout with Curtis Blaydes.
