@@Suburbannite not necessarily. When he says the sequence, I’m assuming he’s meaning the sequence that lead up to it and afterwards.

Eddie said he didn’t know wtf he got hit with when he first got dropped. Even said to himself “what was that”. But I’m pretty dam sure he knew the sequence before and after that.

1) Alex gets hit with the kick 2) Alex dusts and adjusts his cup 3) Herb immediately steps in with a timeout 4) Alex, being the one who was fouled, physically responds to Herb with the ok to continue 5) Herb restarts the fight and clears the space 6) You both touch gloves and nod 7) You both continue the fight 8) Alex initiates the fight ending sequence This wasn't Silva vs Bisping, you weren't looking away and and got hit with a flying knee while your guard was down, Herb didn't fail to pause the action and give you a clear restart, this was the picture perfect of example of what Bisping vs Silva SHOULD have looked like. How much time, space, or a restart do you want? Back to your corners? Perhaps they should start the round clock over again? Maybe we could have Bruce come back in and do the vodka ad again.

[@user-ph2cl7fi8l]

Jamahal is delusional... And it's official, you cant say this guy isn't making excuses, he's clearly blaming this loss on the groin strike sequence.... 1st of all Hill should go read the official mma rules about fouls, the way herb handled that was 100% spot on, he did nothing wrong. 2nd. Alex was the one who absorbed an illegal strike, why should Alex be penalized with a 30second+ reset, if he doesn't want or need one? 3rd. Alex wasn't moving in when the fight was stopped, he moved in when the fight was BACK ON 4th. They touched gloves, Hill was ready to go. 5th. Hill threw a punch slightly before Alex did, more proof Hill was ready, the difference is Alex slipped Hill's punch, and landed his. 6th. If you've been watching mma more than a month you know this happens all the time, a fighter gets fouled, then that fouled fighter waives off the ref and they continue the action right away, just like Alex did. What is it with these fighters? They just refuse to give Alex any respect, even after they lose to him.

[@Rikiko722]

If you watch carefully, Alex hops forward when Hill is expecting a break in the action. If Hill wasn't expecting a break in the action after the groin shot he would have most likely moved in response to Alex's hop in order to maintain distance. By the point Hill realises Herb is not resetting them, though he is obviously ready, he is slightly closer than he ought to be and he doesn't plead with Herb to reset - perhaps he miscalculated that he would be safe at that range, or maybe just didn't want to complain. The fight could have played out in multiple other ways and Alex may have just KO'd Hill anyway, so I'm not claiming that that moment necessarily decided the fight, but with a guy who has nuclear knockout power one small mistake is all it takes and I think Alex did capitalise on that moment where Hill thought the action was going to be reset.

[@mmaserver]

@@Rikiko722very well said. It’s not an excuse I think it’s just really explaining the small details from a weird sequence. Could Alex still could have won? yes.. but that doesn’t exclude the situation

Herb didn’t handle that right he got in their way, made a mistake, and then didn’t commit, causing a knockout

[@justinklenk]

​​@@Rikiko722 Bingo, bingo, bingo. Spot on. It's ultimately on Jamahal, period, but what you described is exactly what we all (who look at all the details + the big picture) plainly and uncontroversially know and understand... It's just unfortunate, how subtle unforced errors often ruin the satisfaction of a fight - a little or a lot - not that we think Alex was gonna be losing that fight anyway, in the end. Ego was driving when Jamahal - in that sudden-uncertain-range moment - decided to stay (and throw) instead of _instantly_ stepping/circling the FUCK away and out. He needed to _evade_ in response to that subtle step-in Alex had just taken.

[@reborntruths]

I think regardless if you like Jamahal or Alex, overwhelming majority agree there's no controversy here. Herb did the right thing and didn't get involved because Alex said he is okay, they reset and touched gloves, they both threw at the same time a bit later and Jamahal got caught with his eyes rolling back while falling down and proceeded to take 7-8 unanswered hammer fists with no defense or hands up.

[@icer39]

Definitely had hands up. Definitely a confusing exchange leading to the knock down with Alex stopping the ref. But Herb did nothing wrong. A cleaner reset would have been more professional bc it wouldn't leave room for all this investigation. He could have acknowledged the low kick, pulled them away, gave him a second to say he was okay and resumed the fight. Like in jon Jones versus cyril gane.

[@reborntruths]

@@icer39 go watch the finish again his hands fell to his waist while he was eating hammer fists and he stopped defending his self. Also Herb stepped right next to them and asked if Alex was okay and they touched gloves to continue the fight. If anything separating them all the way would have interfered with Alex’s momentum as he was the one pressuring. Agree to disagree I just think it’s unneeded excuses.

[@bubalfred260]

Also went to sleep again on the ground

[@icer39]

@reborntruths I can show you a screen shot of him on the ground with hands up. He does stop defending after a few are thrown. Also jon Jones had a similar situation against Stipe, he didn't tell the ref to go away, he acknowledge the illegal blow, separated for a brief second, told the ref he was clear, then clean reset. In my opinion, a fighter shouldn't be able to stop a ref that is pausing the fight for a foul. I don't think Herb was wrong but a more clean reset would eliminate this situation. With that being said they touched gloves and Jamahal swung first so no excuses, just giving his perspective on the events that transpired. Yeah he got dropped but there were definitely factors that lead to it, factors that could possibly be eliminated in the future.

[@user-zr6ts3fs2h]

The situation is the fight was resumed after Alex supposedly got hit in the privates right? assuming herb would check on Alex, hill puts his guard down, you can lose focus when the ref calls a stop but if it continues right away, it may confuse you also < that’s what I get from the take

[@joelucas8529]

I like Hill, but he overlooked Pereira, and he's over looking Roundtree. TKO by Roundtree all day!

[@jass2375]

Roundtree is shit though. he has no victory anyone decent.

[@wingchunbox]

I’m tired of this poor me narrative. Hill had his hands up he never took his eyes off Alex and he never acted as if they stopped the action. Please, everybody watch the fight Jamall never acted as if the action was stopped. If people can’t tell by, watching how Jamall was throwing punches missing by like a foot. His distancing was horrible. I’m not even an Alex fan but you could see the difference between a person who is not technically sound…. shuffling his feet and walking towards people. Hill uses height and size as an advantage. Similar to John Jones. He’s good but of Hill thinks that was the reason or it was just Alexes night and doesn’t do anything different if they fight again he’s absolutely crazy.

[@DangleSan]

I was rooting for Alex in this fight but I totally hear what hill is saying and everyone on the internet's just trying to dunk on him because he lost, If you've ever done any sport at a high level a millisecond is enough for anything to go wrong, You gotta remember Alex knows he's gonna wave off herb hill doesn't so when hill sees herb go time and come towards them, Hill does plant his feet for a millisecond before herb backs off, As hill says he's trying to check and see if Alex is OK he also states that he should have remained in the defend yourself at all times mindset, But if we're being honest from a UFC rule set perspective the moment is a little sketchy, Herb kind of backs away after Alex puts his hand out there is no clear time in it's a little blurry it's a millisecond but at this level that millisecond is death, remember This is coming from someone who was going for Alex, hill his gained a lot of my respect With how he's handling this loss I'll be rooting for him for the first time in his next fight

Wow,Hill still didn't wake up , he remembers everything from his part of universe

[@andrewvellos9735]

Going into a camp in great shape will be really good for Jamahal. Stay focused, champ.

[@determinedmind1609]

Whenever he lies, he almost seems hesitant in his answers. Or like he’s rehearsed his answers 20 times

[@jonathansoko1085]

ITs a clear and audible groin strike. Jamal needs to be humble. He lost, theres no excuse other than he lost. Pack it up, get back at it and come back.

[@tiedie2]

Man, I told everyone this fool was going to become the most unliked guy in the UFC because of how wild he was talking about Peireira. I couldn’t imagine how right I’d be. Peireira SPARKED that dude, and he still can’t shut up.

[@MrSupafresh3904]

Yet he swung at Alex first. Alex’s punch just got there first. 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@user-ey4rn1zf2w]

After the ref stopped you both touched gloves. Enough of this excuse it's absolutely ridiculous. Just stop

[@mintclub2600]

No way... he owned you!! Take it on the chin! Wtf 😮

[@hybrid.catastrophic.impact6071]

Big up to jamal for getting back in the octagon after ufc 300, and for the fact that after a crazy achilles injury he went right for alex. Warrior spirit. Jamal is a fighters fighter

[@snapcracker5094]

Jamahal is making a great point! I’m not being bias because I’m an Alex fan, but Jamahal right about the ref.

[@aselzesarp6742]

All fighters are making excuses. Jamahall, Rakic, Prochazka. Only Pereira broke his toe and still won the fight.

[@ALLDaY-ViKeS]

Hey whatever he has to tell himself to keep his confidence up haha

[@mainframe4051]

Keep your head up champ, you know what you need to do ! 💪.

[@jaredchenklov1532]

Is he trolling us? It wasn’t a groin strike??? He caught him when he was checking if he was good????? Wtf?????????

[@wowweewaa3437]

I hope jamahal sees this comment alex pereira=kickboxing great, two division ufc champion, hands of stone, bad man, just a monster, dangerous, scary dude jamahal hill= delusional

[@robertsouza8423]

Hill tried to clown the whole build up and got clowned in the fight. He got handled, it happens. Move on.

[@All0utj3rk]

Herb got in the way, so you can’t tell how the fight would have went, need rematch

[@axleprose]

You never were concussed?then why did you stop blocking those hammer fists?

[@AcostaFam1]

Still rolling with Jamal, you win some you loose some it’s a part of life

[@JohnWilliams-jr3xp]

The sequence was crazy and weird. I was confused at what happened. He aint get back in fight mode and alex was still locked in, hence why he saying protect yourself at all times. Youll be back champ. The REAL fans will always ride with you

[@johannludwigwolfgang2889]

The best part after the knockout is when Alex starts viciously hammering downHill's face a dozen times and DC goes: "Oh my goodness"! 😂

[@RandyMazias]

Hill thinks he badder than what he is lol he'll get it next fight when he gets kod

[@shawnterrance7204]

wow so you want the dude to think hes soft lol imagine wishing for a mans downfall wanting him to get knocjed out when he just wants to be the best and enjoys doing what he does

[@BlueprintGB-gz5qq]

The guy who made this comment is a loser obv, what u expect? 😂​@shawnterrance7204

[@RandyMazias]

@shawnterrance7204 he's delusional he's got a permanent gut he's slow the list goes on and on and on lol

[@thefatalveli1]

he will beat Rountree...

[@icer39]

What you want the man to think lowly of himself

[@nikontruth4227]

Its the fighters discretion if he needs a break or not. Alex said im good, Herb let it go. Is what it is

[@goldie7420]

PoV jamahal changes sport to football. ALEX FOLLOWS HIM 🗿🗿🤣

[@oldmedstudent1750]

Jamahal is really delusional. Smh 😂

[@TimSnell-dp4ly]

They hit hands after “ we good and ready” Jamil just said he got rocked by hands of stone!!!

[@backenddrak]

Hill has no soul now bruh💀💀

[@JLB96-]

This whole "It was Herb Deans fault" narrative might be the most embarrassing attempt of an excuse I've ever heard. Shame on DC, Chael and Schmo for trying to push it. Hill got outclassed by a MUCH better striker. As soon as Alex realized the difference in skill and power he started pressing. Hill dropped his right hand every time he threw a straight left. Pereira noticed that, started pressing, closed the distance and knocked him out easily. If it wasn't for the nut shot, the fight would have gotten finished regardless. At least Hill isn't completely trying to run with it and says himself it's protect yourself at all times, because that attempt of an excuse is just sad.

[@All0utj3rk]

It truly is Herbs mess up

[@jordanfortier3246]

I remembered the full sequence of the things that had happened? We’ll what were they?

[@jrr59]

So what he woke up…He is still delusional!!!

[@gda2106]

Unified rules of MMA, Section 15, Subsection G, Par. ii: if the fighter states that they can continue on before the 5 minutes of time has expired, the referee shall, as soon as practical, restart the fight. Alex waived Herb off after Hill’s foot connected with AP’s cup (wherever it landed last, the hollow sound of a steel/ plastic cup is incontravertibly audible). Herb called “time out”. Alex hopped **once** simultaneously *as* Herb was calling “time out”. Herb then called “time in” and Hill and Alex formally reengaged by *tapping gloves* then hand fought twice before Hill threw his first left straight which Alex anticipated w right-ward head movement while countering with left shovel cut. There was appox 3-4 seconds of hand-fighting after tapping gloves for Hill to have refocused. Alex won the handle-battle and foot position before the time out was called. Hill was check-mated fair and square. In a championship title fight one should never lose focus even for a millisecond. There are *no* excuses, ever (least of all headlining a historic UFC 300 PPV titlefight). Credit to Luke Thomas (for fight analysis) and John McCarthy (reg. rules and regs), and MMA Joey who break this fight down in detail.

[@PIEKART2001]

4:36 the slow zoom when Hill revisits the ko instead of answering question straight away

[@stekla2871]

What blows my mind about Hill. He decided to have a kickboxing match against a Glory Champion. His Game plan was insane. If Tom aspinall fights Pereira, his game plan will be to take him down. Aspinall has good stand up, fast hands, but why take the chance, get him down, make him work.

[@UnknownUnknown-cj2wz]

Well it'd not like he's good anything else, his wrestling and jiu jitsu is a joke. Blax aren't really good in that department, they're known for being on steroids and still getting ktfo lol

[@waynzignordics]

Hill should be given as much room as he needs to deal with the first loss on his record, but he's sounding more and more detached from reality by the day. He literally asked Herb Dean "did I go out?" and Herb Dean said "yes, you went out." Then he asked the doctor "what hand was it?" but the doctor didn't answer, so he asked the usher "what was it?" and the usher said "was the left hand." Hill doesn't remember any of that.

[@UsandJames]

I understand, hill. He was ready but unsure and it all happened fast. He looks good. I'm rooting for him. 🎉

[@curiosidadesimportantes]

From "I'm gonna knock him out standing" To "I kinda didn't hear herb saying fight"

[@justinklenk]

0:44 - Well tbf, there's more than one way to get fired up on the couch...
