UFC fighter Josh Hokit has no regrets about Michelle Obama verbal attack

UFC heavyweight Josh Hokit expressed no remorse over his verbal assault on Michelle Obama, attributing it to a right-wing conspiracy theory. The incident occurred during a UFC event held at the White House in June. Hokit's remarks, which included vulgar language and insults, took place inside the octagon after his fight, and were repeated on Wednesday inside a New York hotel before his upcoming bout.

Despite being called a "villain" by some, Hokit maintains he has no regrets about his actions, claiming the White House was the appropriate setting to express his views.
