Jon Jones Appears to Troll Josh Hokit After Ciryl Gane's Win at UFC 334

Former UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones appeared to enjoy watching Josh Hokit lose to current titleholder Ciryl Gane in the main event of UFC 334 on Saturday.

Despite training at the same gym as Hokit, Jones posted an Instagram video trolling him while the result of the fight was announced, with Gane winning by unanimous decision.

"Same coaches, different results," Jones wrote in the caption, referencing their shared trainers, Greg Jackson and Mike Winkeljohn. As he watched the fight result, he said in the video, "Put your hand down [Hokit]. Good job, Frenchman!"

Jones claimed the heavyweight title in 2023 by defeating Gane via first-round submission. He referenced Hokit in more social media posts, noting that the challenger bad-mouthed him before his loss:

Presumably, Jackson and Winkeljohn would've had the blueprint to give Hokit the chance to defeat Gane again, but things didn't play out that way on Saturday night. Despite his relentless pressure in the early rounds, Hokit failed to put Gane away, and the defending champ stepped on the gas in the final two rounds to secure the win.

Jones retired last year, so there likely won't be any in-fighting at the gym between him and Hokit. The 29-year-old will have to go back to the drawing board as he tries to earn another shot at the heavyweight title.
