😴💤 Josh Hokit FALLS ASLEEP On The Scale At UFC 334

What did you think?

The officials needed Josh Hokit to stop moving. He obliged, then kept the pose long after his weight had been announced.

At the UFC 334 weigh-in, Hokit leaned forward with his eyes closed and stayed planted on the scale, turning a routine check into an extended bit. FULL SEND MMA's Short had drawn nearly half a million views within 12 hours, far beyond the channel's usual start for this format.

Hokit arrived with material. Before stepping onto the scale, he told the room, "My style hasn't been copied yet." Once officials asked him to hold still, the chatter gave way to exaggerated stillness. His weight was read, the announcer confirmed the main event, and Hokit remained where he was as laughter broke out around him. Eventually, he broke character, laughed and stepped down.

The title calls it falling asleep, but the clip shows a sustained gag, not a medical incident. Viewers are discussing how long he commits to the pose, with some joking about whether he will wake up for the fight. The comment section was already more than forty times as busy as a usual full first day for the channel's Shorts.

Hokit is scheduled to challenge Ciryl Gane for the heavyweight title at Madison Square Garden. FULL SEND MMA has also posted their final face-off and messages to each other, but it is the challenger's prolonged pause on the scale drawing the largest audience of those uploads.
