Josh Hokit is poised to challenge for the undisputed Heavyweight title at UFC 334, where he will face champion Ciryl Gane. This highly anticipated bout is scheduled to take place on November 14, 2026, at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Hokit, who remains undefeated, has been fast-tracked to this title shot, a move that UFC CEO Dana White admits was partly motivated by his desire to humble the fighter due to some controversial remarks Hokit had previously made.

Despite the intentions behind White's decision to give Hokit tougher opponents, the strategy appears to have backfired, leading to an opportunity for Hokit to compete for the championship. This matchup not only highlights Hokit’s rapid ascent in the UFC but also sets the stage for a significant event in the heavyweight division, as Gane looks to defend his title against a rising star.S1S2
