Analysis of Josh Hokit's performance suggests he is capable of fighting more defensively to avoid absorbing heavy shots, but his established persona and middle-finger antics require him to maintain an aggressive style. While this approach worked against Curtis Blaydes, such reckless attacks against fighters like Pereira or Pavlovich would likely result in knockout losses. Despite the chaotic nature of the bout, Hokit showed improved power that persisted into the third round and demonstrated strong wrestling defense. His fighting style perfectly aligns with the preferences of Trump and Dana White. However, concerns exist that Derrick Lewis may enter their White House bout focused on collecting a paycheck rather than pursuing victory.
