UFC president Dana White commented on Josh Hawit's pre-fight behavior and theatrics. White stated that all of Hawit's antics and callouts will only be appropriate if he manages to defeat Curtis Blaydes in their upcoming heavyweight bout. The comment suggests White is tolerating Hawit's promotional tactics but expects performance to back them up. This puts additional pressure on Hawit to deliver a win at UFC 327. The statement reflects the UFC's stance that fighters must win to justify their trash talk and showmanship.
