Chaos seems to follow Josh Hokit wherever he goes—and Saturday night at UFC 328 was no exception.

Just one day after being escorted out of the UFC White House press conference following a heated exchange with lightweight champion Ilia Topuria, the rising heavyweight star found himself in yet another confrontation, this time with UFC light heavyweight Paulo Costa.

The tension escalated when Hokit and Costa began trading words from the crowd. As the two fighters moved closer, security and police officers quickly intervened before the situation could turn physical. Video footage shows the moment security pulled Costa away, while Hokit—clearly fired up—flipped him off and shouted, "There's only one f*cking bad guy. Get the f*ck out of here!"

Costa, to his credit, kept his composure as security maintained the separation, while Hokit continued jawing from across the crowd.

This latest incident adds another chapter to Hokit's growing reputation as one of the UFC's most outspoken personalities. The heavyweight contender has been on a roll since his impressive win over Curtis Blaydes at UFC 327, which vaulted him up the rankings and earned him a marquee bout against Derrick Lewis at the UFC White House card in July.

But Hokit isn't just picking fights with heavyweights. On Friday, before his run-in with Topuria, he was already taking aim at former two-division champion Alex Pereira, who is moving up to heavyweight to challenge Ciryl Gane for a third title at the White House. Now, with his latest dust-up against Costa, it's clear Hokit is ready to mix it up with anyone from lightweight to light heavyweight.

While he's undoubtedly focused on working his way into title contention, Hokit's fiery personality ensures he'll remain one of the most talked-about—and unpredictable—fighters in the UFC.
