Josh Hawkit made headlines at the UFC 327 media day with an extremely unusual and violent speech. He stated he would "knock Blaydes out, cut off his head and attach it to Alex Pereira's body," then described assembling a human "centipede" using ranked fighters that "The Incredible Hulk" (Hawkit's nickname) would walk on a leash in his yard. The bizarre rant drew comparisons to recent similar behavior from other fighters. Fans reacted with a mix of amusement and concern, questioning what substances may have influenced the outburst. The speech was covered by MMA Junkie.
