Josh Hawkett made headlines at a UFC media day with an extremely unusual and graphic speech. The heavyweight fighter threatened to defeat Curtis Blaydes and then described a disturbing scenario involving multiple top-ranked fighters in violent and grotesque terms. Hawkett spoke of creating a "human centipede" from various ranked heavyweights that he would keep on a leash in his yard. The bizarre rant has drawn comparisons to recent erratic behavior by other UFC fighters and left observers questioning his state of mind heading into competition.
