Jiri Prochazka and Josh Hawkit had a tense verbal exchange backstage during the UFC 327 media day in Miami. Prochazka told Hawkit to "stay where you stand, man," while Hawkit responded aggressively, saying "I'll cut you, mate, and then glue your head to Alex Pereira's body." The confrontation suggests building tension ahead of their scheduled bout. Both fighters appeared to be engaged in pre-fight psychological warfare during the promotional event. No physical altercation occurred during the exchange.
