UFC Fighter Josh Hokit Insults Michelle Obama During Victory Speech at White House

Source: Parade

UFC fighter Josh Hokit defeated Derrick Lewis for the heavyweight title at the White House's UFC Freedom 250 event on June 14, but the internet is calling the shocking tirade that followed "disgraceful."

At the end of his victory speech, Hokit grabbed the mic from Joe Rogan and shouted "Last thing: Michelle Obamais a man! Am I right America?" Watch the stunning video for yourself:

The rest of the speech was equally inciting. "You know what? F--k this speech, Shout out to [President Donald] Trump for having the balls to put some s--t like this on," he began. "And if I'm going to say anything, there's only one person more incredible than the Incredible Hok, and that's my lord and savior Jesus Christ."

This was nothing more than one of those bullies who sticks their chins out and points at it right damn close to your eyeball demanding you to take the first shot. It is getting to the point where there us io choice but. If someone of courage and sacrifice does, make sure that bully never gets up.

President Donald Trump was captured on video “smiling” Sunday after an Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) fighter dropped a shockingly "offensive” and false remark about former First Lady Michelle Obama during the UFC event at the White House, CNN reported.

Mixed martial artist Joshua Hokit, 28, defeated his opponent Derrick Lewis Sunday night at the White House UFC bout, and after his victory, shouted an inflammatory and false claim targeting the former first lady......

Hokit’s remarks also elicited a response from Trump, who was seated in the first row at the event.

In a brief moment captured on camera, Trump, seated first row at the ‘Octagon,’ appeared to show a half-smile seconds after the false remark, which has previously circulated online,” wrote CNN’s Alejandra Jaramillo.

Back in February, Trump faced rare bipartisan outrage after posting a video on his social media platform Truth Social that briefly depicted former President Barack Obama and the first lady as primates in the jungle. The blowback was so fierce that Trump – who denied being aware that the segment of the video he posted included the racist depiction – ultimately deleted the post.
