UFC 328 press conference criticized as uneventful except for Hokit's antics

A commentary piece harshly critiques the UFC 328 press conference as largely pointless and forgettable, with only Josh Hokit's disruptive performances providing any memorable moments. The author argues that three fighters felt useless at the event: Steve Garcia, Diego Lopes, and surprisingly Sean O'Malley, who sat silently while even Aimann Zahabi received questions. The piece contends that press conferences have outlived their usefulness, failing to deliver either substantive answers or genuine emotional confrontations except extremely rarely. While acknowledging Hokit's behavior as "cringe," the author notes he was the only participant who created memorable content, provoking reactions from Derrick Lewis, Alex Pereira, and Ilia Topuria, sparking a mini-altercation, and ultimately forcing Dana White to end the event early when Hokit was removed. The conclusion suggests UFC should only hold press conferences every two to three years when genuine conflict exists.
