Critics are calling out UFC fighter Josh Hokit for vile comments he made about former first lady Michelle Obama after winning his bout at the White House event held on President Donald Trump’s 80th birthday.

“And lastly, Michelle Obama is a man. Am I right, America?” he told Joe Rogan during his post-match interview, conducted in the Octagon that had been set up on the White House lawn.
Trump was in attendance at the event.
When the fight was over, Hokit gifted Trump with a medallion of some kind, placing it around the president’s neck:
Hokit has a history of over-the-top antics. He appeared to throw up on himself a little during his weigh-in on Friday, saying, “maybe I was out drinking,” but fans weren’t convinced and thought it was fake.
He also has a long history of ugly and racist comments, and accusing women of being men appears to be one of his go-to insults.
Critics on social media called him out over his attack on Obama:

I have covered every president since Ronald Reagan. I can honestly say that not once in 40 years have I ever thought I would see anything like this on the South Lawn of the White House. https://t.co/vKCib14rNO

MAGA is obsessed with the Obamas. Dude just won a fight and he’s got Michelle Obama on his mind. At the white house on the 250th. Weirdos man. https://t.co/np8cZEjffa

Calling Michelle Obama a man on the White House lawn is the most pathetic shit I’ve ever seen.

Since this is (apparently) a sporting event I will comment:
Fools congregate with fools.
The MMA is full of men like this who will willingly spout racism, sexism and abuse from the mic with no consequences.
MMA is also Trump’s greatest ally in the sports world.
For a reason. https://t.co/wMS9Q9P9kv
