The heavyweight fighter's comments referenced Alex Pereira and other top-ranked contenders in his strange monologue. The bizarre nature of his statements drew comparisons to recent antics by Gene Silva. Hockett's outburst has raised questions about his state of mind heading into his upcoming fight.
