An analyst provided detailed observations on Josh Hockit following his win over Curtis Blaydes at UFC 327. While acknowledging Hockit could fight more conservatively to avoid absorbing damage, the post noted his persona requires maintaining an aggressive, crowd-pleasing style that could prove dangerous against elite strikers like Alex Pereira or Sergei Pavlovich. The analysis praised Hockit's improving power, noting his hands remained heavy even in the third round, and highlighted his effective elbow work and strong takedown defense against Blaydes' wrestling attempts. The piece suggested Hockit's reckless fighting style perfectly suits Dana White and Donald Trump's preferences for exciting action. Regarding the upcoming Derrick Lewis fight at the White House event, the analyst expressed concern that Lewis may prioritize earning money and avoiding damage over securing victory.
