UFC CEO Dana White

UFC CEO Dana White was asked on Saturday about Josh Hokit’s Michelle Obama joke in the UFC Freedom 250 Octagon last Sunday, and he defended Hokit’s right to free speech, but condemned the remarks as “disgusting” and “f*cking stupid.”

It can be recalled that after his win against Derrick Lewis, Hokit told Joe Rogan in the Octagon, “Shoutout to Trump for having the balls to put some sh*t like this on,” before praising Jesus Christ.

He went on to drop the savage line, noting that Trump’s not the only one with balls. “And lastly, Michelle Obama is a man!” Hokit shouted. “Am I right, America?!”

Trump was seen smiling afterward, but later removed Josh Hokit’s chain, which had been gifted to him moments earlier.

Dana White previously condemned the statement, saying, “I understand that the Obamas are public figures, but I’m completely against saying nasty and false things about people’s families,” the Gateway Pundit reported. “Everyone knows my position on free speech, but I hate that kind of nonsense,” White added.

White responded again on Saturday night during a UFC Vegas 119 post-fight press conference with similar remarks.

“Look, the Josh Hockett thing was obviously the big story for the mainstream media going out,” the reporter said as White interrupted, “That was disgusting.”

When asked if he regrets having Hokit compete on the White House Freedom 250 card, White said, “Ho, I mean, listen, there’s always going to be people that say things that most of us don’t agree with.”

“I mean, just the time, the place, the, you know, just f*cking, yeah, no,” he continued.

He then praised Obama, telling reporters, “I’ve said many times, listen, I voted for Obama the first time, didn’t vote for him the second time, then, when I was at the inauguration, he was sitting in front of me, and then I saw all this stuff on the internet where people were like, ‘Oh, Dana’s mad-dogging, and Obama. Obama’s the only one that turned around to me, couldn’t have been a nicer guy, and said, Congratulations on all your success and everything that you’ve done, or whatever.”

“I don’t believe in this shit, like all the people that hate Trump: ‘He’s not my president!’ All the people, people that hated Obiden: ‘He’s not my president.’ I got some bad f*cking news for you: If you’re an American, that’s your president, and I respect all presidents, present and past, and you know not everybody does,” he added. Hilariously, he appeared to call Joe Biden “Obiden,” though likely unintentional.

White concluded, “Gotta listen to f*cking stupid sh*t like that sometimes, unfortunately, because I also believe in free speech.”
