Josh Hokit continues to make waves together with his feedback about Michelle Obama on the UFC’s White Home card, and a five-promotion titleholder who held gold within the UFC wasn’t eager to answer the controversial heavyweight. On the evening Cyborg retained her Bellator MMA featherweight crown towards Cat Zingano at Bellator 300, Hokit really made his skilled MMA debut within the first combat of the evening.
The one that promoted that card was Scott Coker, somebody that Cyborg has a whole lot of historical past with, and when providing up her ideas concerning Coker getting again into the MMA promotional sport, Cyborg mentioned [via Bowks Talking Bouts],
“I’m actually comfortable. Scott Coker again and asserting the brand new promote occasion as a result of he’s an actual, legit martial artist. He’s actually perceive the fighters as a result of earlier than he’s preventing. He has an important historical past. He’s doing this for 35 years and also you see all the massive promotion, he begin little and his develop up, develop the occasion and open the door for lots of people.”
“The particular person has opened the door for me and I’m actually comfortable as a result of actually the fighters want one other occasions to place the work. For the enhance their video games to enhance the all the things so I’m comfortable have another to come back.”
Josh Hokit attracts the ire of many, however evidently not Cris Cyborg
Referring to the aforementioned parts that tied collectively Cris Cyborg and Josh Hokit, when requested if she had a response to Hokit’s inflammatory feedback concerning the previous First Woman, Cyborg said [via Bowks Talking Bouts],
“No, I don’t need to get into this.”
This sits in a curious broader context with Cyborg taking challenge with comparable claims made towards her by Dana White years in the past, the place he quote, mentioned she appeared like “Wanderlei Silva in a dress”. It turns into particularly curious when you think about that White himself disavowed Hokit’s feedback concerning the former First Woman on the White Home, but the previous UFC featherweight champ wouldn’t.
