Sean Strickland calls out Josh Hockit's street interview persona as fake

Sean Strickland has commented on Josh Hockit's public image, acknowledging that while he knows Hockit and considers him a pleasant person and friend, he finds his street interviewer persona problematic. Strickland criticized Hockit for trying to be an influencer in his mid-thirties, comparing it to Jake Paul's behavior at thirteen. He described the whole act as reminiscent of a WWE sketch that he wishes would end, urging Hockit to be himself and focus on training instead. Despite his criticism, Strickland acknowledged that Hockit's approach is working since he's fighting at the White House event. The post suggests Hockit may be overdoing his public persona.
