Josh Hokit Earns Ciryl Gane Heavyweight Title Shot at UFC 334 in Madison Square Garden

Dana White fed Josh Hokit tough guys on purpose, and it made him a title challenger 😬 Dana told The Jim Rome Show he didn’t like some of the things Hokit said, so he “might’ve thrown some tough guys at him.” First up was Curtis Blaydes at UFC 327: 15 bloody minutes, the most significant strikes ever landed in a three-round heavyweight fight, and Hokit took the decision. Then Derrick Lewis at the White House, a full round of punishment and a TKO in the second. Now he’s 10-0 and Dana has changed his tune. Next up is Ciryl Gane for the heavyweight title at UFC 334, November 14 at Madison Square Garden. Did Dana’s plan backfire, or did he just build the UFC’s next heavyweight star? #JoshHokit #CirylGane #DanaWhite #UFC334 #UFCHeavyweight
