The undefeated Josh Hokit never misses an opportunity to take a shot at his arch-rival, former two-division UFC champion Alex Pereira.

The bad blood between Pereira and Hokit started brewing days before the UFC White House card. The American has taken countless jabs at Pereira and even made personal comments about the Brazilian. The 39-year-old, meanwhile, has mostly chosen not to react.

This time, Hokit has a new nickname for Pereira and jokingly alleged that “Poatan” must be practicing witchcraft and using his catchphrase “Chama” to “put curses on the whole world.” During a sit-down with Paul Felder and Michael Bisping, the 28-year-old quipped:

“The auraless sorceress is what I call him. The b*tch that be doing witchcraft… Him and his BBL could go to hell. He paints his face in woman’s mascara, acts like he’s shooting people with a bow. No wonder his f*cking people got conquered; we come up, and we shoot you.”

Hokit is next in line to challenge new heavyweight champion Ciryl Gane at UFC 334. Pereira, meanwhile, is not scheduled to fight anyone yet. However, fans would undoubtedly love to see the grudge match between “The Incredible Hok” and “Poatan” materialize down the line.

Josh Hokit says he can beat Ciryl Gane “in any sport”

During the same sit-down mentioned above, Josh Hokit also recalled a previous interaction with Ciryl Gane when the two shared a locker room at the White House on June 14. Hokit claimed that during his candid chat with “Bon Gamin,” he told Gane that although fans call the Frenchman athletic, he can beat him in any sport.

“We were sharing a locker room together. I saw him and I pressed him about basketball. I was like ‘how long you’ve been playing basketball?… It don’t f*cking matter how long, you can’t defend this move’. And so I backed him down and I did my little fadeway. I had about 5 to 7 yards of space. And I was like, you can’t fu*k with me Ciryl Gane. They say you are athletic. I can beat you in any sport.”
