Josh Hokit shared a heated reaction to Alex Pereira’s recent comments and callout for an immediate rematch with Ciryl Gane.

Former UFC two-division champion Alex Pereira’s heavyweight debut didn’t go as planned at UFC Freedom 250 in June. After falling to Ciryl Gane by TKO, Pereira called for an immediate rematch with the interim titleholder after controversial strikes landed in the final minutes.

When recently asked about his heavyweight return plans, Pereira called the Gane rematch the fight that ‘makes the most sense’ for his comeback fight. But Pereira doesn’t plan on waiting for the likely Tom Aspinall vs. Gane rematch to transpire before plotting his return to the Octagon.

This opens the door for Josh Hokit and Pereira to settle their heated feud in the cage. After Pereira’s recent Gane rematch callout, Hokit was unamused.

Josh Hokit ramps up Alex Pereira feud after Ciryl Gane callout

In a recent tweet, Hokit reacted to Pereira’s call for an immediate rematch with Gane.

“As a fan, that fight makes no f—— sense,” Hokit said of Pereira’s callout.

“I watched you get demolished. How about a more favorable matchup like Sergei, who is basically a striker and way less athletic than Ciryl? How about you get one f—— win in this weight class before you are gifted another title shot?

“When the UFC starts letting guys who try to feed carrots to a school bus, and Brigitte Macron’s stunt double, do their matchmaking, this company is f—– cooked,” Hokit continued. “USA pays the bills around here. The fans deserve an American champion and a f—— fight we didn’t just see in June!!!!”

As of this writing, Pereira hasn’t responded to Hokit’s comments. Aspinall and Gane are rumored to headline the UFC’s upcoming return to Madison Square Garden in November, pending Aspinall’s medical clearance.
