Ciryl Gane Exposes the Intelligence Behind Josh Hokit’s Comedic Gimmick Ahead of UFC 334
Despite his atomic mouth and controversial personality, Ciryl Gane refuses to underestimate Josh Hokit ahead of UFC 334 title fight.
Ciryl Gane is preparing for his first heavyweight title defense against Josh Hokit at UFC 334, which is set to headline Madison Square Garden. While many fans predict Gane to have an easy win, Gane himself is not so sure. Having faced some of the heavyweight division's biggest names, including Francis Ngannou, Jon Jones, Tom Aspinall, and Alex Pereira, Gane believes Hokit is a much smarter fighter.
The champion noted on UFC Countdown, "Josh won the fight against Derrick Lewis; he did well." Gane also commented on Hokit's promotional style, saying he isn't a fan of it. He believes Hokit is deliberately playing the fool to entertain fans, but there is more to him once the cage door closes. Gane has faith in his ability to deliver a great fight for the fans and win the bout.
While Hokit's comedic personality and trash talk might be a distraction, his undefeated record (10-0) and strong wrestling background, including an All-American wrestling career since the age of four, make him a formidable opponent.
