Josh Hockett makes bizarre threats toward Curtis Blaydes at media day

Josh Hockett delivered an extremely unusual speech during the UFC 327 media day, making bizarre and graphic threats toward Curtis Blaydes and other top-ranked fighters. Hockett stated he would decapitate Blaydes and attach his head to Alex Pereira's body, then create a grotesque "human centipede" by sewing together fighters ranked second and third in the heavyweight division. The strange comments continued with Hockett claiming he would parade this creation on a leash in his yard. The outburst drew comparisons to recent unusual behavior from fighter Gene Silva. The motivation behind Hockett's disturbing statements remains unclear.
