Josh Hewitt delivered a shocking and disturbing speech during media day ahead of his fight. The heavyweight contender made graphic comments about defeating Curtis Blaydes and creating a human centipede-like creature by sewing together body parts of top-ranked fighters. Hewitt stated he would attach Blaydes' head to Alex Pereira's body, then connect ranked fighters together in grotesque fashion. He claimed the Incredible Hulk, his nickname, would keep this creation on a leash in his yard. The bizarre comments were documented by MMA Junkie at the media event. Hewitt's unusual promotional tactics have drawn comparisons to other eccentric fighters.
