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

Josh Hockitt made provocative comparisons between himself and several UFC fighters during his recent media appearances. He claimed to be like Derrick Lewis but not as dumb, like Ian Garry but not as soft, and like Song Yadong but better endowed. Hockitt has been engaging in unusual trash talk and confrontational behavior ahead of his upcoming fight. The heavyweight has been walking around confronting fighters in the lobby and delivering bizarre monologues. His antics have created attention for his opponent Curtis Blaydes, who typically draws little fan support outside his close circle.
