‘The Incredible Hok’ is not the biggest fan of now ex-ESPN analyst Ryan Clark.
Josh Hokit has been causing plenty of controversy with his comments since rising to prominence in the UFC heavyweight division.
That was certainly the case after his trip to Washington, DC, for the UFC Freedom 250 event on the White House lawn, where Hokit knocked out Derrick Lewis to extend his Octagon record to 4-0.
Among those critical of the 28-year-old’s shtick has been Clark, and the heavyweight contender thinks the former NFL star has now paid the price.

Josh Hokit believes Ryan Clark ‘cursed’ himself by criticizing his UFC Freedom 250 conduct
Hokit’s comment about former First Lady Michelle Obama during his Octagon interview with Joe Rogan on June 14 was slammed across mainstream media.
The topic remains at the surface, with Clark using terms like “moronic” and “idiotic” while asking UFC President Dana White about the remark during a recent episode of The Pivot Podcast.
Clark has been in the headlines lately himself after being among those laid off by ESPN. The ex-American football star was told of his firing this week midway through a show.
Hokit reacted to that on X and suggested the 46-year-old was ‘cursed’ by preparing negative comments about ‘The Incredible Hok’ for the podcast with White.
“FOFO….Podcast with Dana aired a day after he was fired,” Hokit wrote on X. “Every podcast creates a script of questions days in advance of the show.
“The mere negative thought towards the Incredible Hok brings a curse. Let this be a lesson. #Hokitcurse”

Clark is far from being the only individual in Hokit’s social media crosshairs.
He’s also taken aim at Ian Machado Garry over his comments about women ruling the world and continued his attacks on fellow UFC heavyweights, including interim champion Ciryl Gane.
The polarizing American has yet to have his next fight confirmed, but he’s been calling out the likes of Gane, Tom Aspinall, and Alex Pereira ever since having his hand raised outside the White House.
