Josh Hokit takes aim at Jon Jones for Gable Steveson's UFC 331 loss
Josh Hokit put Jon Jones on blast for the way he's handled Gable Steveson's training.
Josh Hokit criticized Gable Steveson for his loss at UFC 331. Steveson, an Olympic gold medalist, suffered a shocking knockout at the hands of Sean Sharaf just two weeks before. Hokit, a 10-0 MMA fighter with 4-0 UFC record, trains under Jon Jones and expressed disappointment at Steveson's perceived lack of dedication. Hokit questioned Steveson's training regimen, suggesting that Jones' influence may have led to Hokit's opponent's negligence.
Hokit also pointed to Steveson's behavior following the match, noting his smiling demeanor as he left the cage, which Hokit saw as insincere. Despite Hokit's own limited octagon experience, the fighter is eyeing a title shot against Ciryl Gane in the upcoming UFC 334 main event.
