ANALYSIS
Hokit used dominant wrestling to set up his striking here, as he was credited with six takedowns prior to the Round 2 finish that was a result of devastating ground-and-pound. He only absorbed seven significant strikes in the six-plus minutes the bout lasted. The 27-year-old heavyweight and former NFL player had previously competed for both Bellator and LFA, so his 6-0-0 pro record has some substance to it despite his relative inexperience.
