Josh Hokit and Paulo Costa have been going back and forth ever since UFC 327 wrapped up on Saturday.
UFC 327 saw the promotion return to Miami, where Josh Hokit put on a memorable performance in his bout with Curtis Blaydes.
The win over Blaydes led to a spot on the upcoming UFC White House card, where he’ll face Derrick Lewis – a matchup reportedly influenced by calls from Donald Trump and Joe Rogan.
Along with the big fight opportunity, ‘The Incredible Hok’ picked up both Fight of the Night and Performance of the Night honours for his efforts at UFC 327.
Hokit fires back at Costa after bonus threats
Paulo Costa also featured on the UFC 327 card, making his light heavyweight debut against Azamat Murzakanov.
The Eraser looked right at home in the new division, finishing Murzakanov in the third round with a head kick.
Normally, that would have been enough to earn him a Performance of the Night bonus, but Hokit’s fight ended up taking both bonuses instead.
Costa didn’t hold back on social media, posting: “Hey Josh Hokit you got my bonus motherf—–, I’m gonna f— you up next time you f—— bum.”
In response, Hokit fired back: “Fight deez nutz… but of course I got like 20% body fat but don’t get it twisted my Incredible Hok juice is far more superior than your secret juice.”
Costa also caught the attention of Donald Trump who was in attendance. After his win, Costa climbed over the cage to speak with him. Trump reportedly told him he was too good looking to be a fighter and should consider modeling instead.
Costa kept it going, saying: “Fat ass you owe me $100k bonus.”
“I’d take you down and suffocate you with this belly and take all your women from you,” Hokit replied. “They prefer a dad bod anyway.”
