Bruce Buffer Critiques Josh Hokit’s Comments on Michelle Obama

Bruce Buffer has voiced his discontent regarding Josh Hokit’s comments about Michelle Obama made after Hokit’s victory at UFC Freedom 250. The legendary UFC announcer criticized Hokit for questioning Obama’s gender during his post-fight remarks, stating that such comments are disrespectful.

After knocking out Derrick Lewis, Hokit made a controversial statement implying that Michelle Obama is a man, which drew significant backlash, including from UFC CEO Dana White. White emphasized that while he supports free speech, he does not condone disparaging remarks about public figures.

Hokit later attempted to clarify his comments, claiming he intended them as a compliment regarding Obama’s resilience. Despite his personal views on Hokit’s remarks, Buffer affirmed that he would still provide a full introduction for Hokit during his upcoming fight against Ciryl Gane at UFC 334, separating his professional responsibilities from personal opinions.
