Josh Hokit was in fine form at the UFC 334 pre-fight press conference on Thursday.

‘The Incredible Hok’ turned up wearing goggles to protect himself from Ciryl Gane’s eye pokes ahead of their heavyweight title fight this Saturday/

But it wasn’t long before the 10-0 American took his trash talk to another level, targeting the mothers of both his opponent and Alex Pereira, who was sitting in the front row.

Do you think the UFC are prepared for the potential of Josh Hokit becoming a champion?

Josh Hokit insults Ciryl Gane’s mother

Josh Hokit kicked off the UFC 334 press conference by getting the crowd chanting ‘F— Ciryl Gane‘.

The 29-year-old then took aim at Gane’s mother with a crude joke.

“Hey, Ciryl, how’s your mom doing?” Hokit asked. “What’s the difference between your mom and a washing machine? When I dump a load in the washing machine, she don’t follow me around for nine months.

“Look how I talk to him,” he added when Gane failed to react to his low blow.

“This is the champion? Get out of here!”

Josh Hokit turns his attention to Alex Pereira

Undeterred by Ciryl Gane’s lack of reaction, Josh Hokit turned his attention to another UFC star.

A reporter pointed out that former two-weight champion Alex Pereira was sitting in the front row supporting his teammate Yousri Belgaroui, who is scheduled to fight Caio Borralho at UFC 334.

“I’m gonna Chama on his Mama,” Hokit said about Pereira.

“And he ain’t gonna do s— about it. You ain’t gonna do s— about it. F— you!”

Pereira stood up and raised his hands, seemingly welcoming the abuse from Hokit.

‘Poatan’ laughed as he sat back down, but his teammate Belgaroui wasn’t impressed by what was being said.

The 6ft 5in middleweight repeatedly told Hokit to ‘shut up’ as he continued ranting about Pereira’s mother.

Thankfully, the UFC 334 press conference ended without any fighters trying to get physical with each other.

Hokit must now navigate the weigh-ins without sparking an all-out brawl with Gane, Pereira, or anyone else.
