UFC 300: Jamahal Hill vows to make a splash in light heavyweight title fight against Alex Pereira

Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jamahal Hill returns and talks about his preparations for his light heavyweight title fight against Alex Pereira on April 13 at T-Mobile Arena in the main event of UFC 300.
Hill discusses the advice he got from former UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya, who has faced Pereira four times (twice each in the UFC and in Glory). He talks about becoming the best and being willing to fight anyone.
He also breaks down Pereira and isn't as impressed with Pereira as many fans and those in the media.

I’m confident in how confident and aggressive hill is. I think hill is going to give it all he has savagely and the only way he doesn’t win is if he gets knocked out. Someone in this fight is getting koed

[@Stressfree21]

The right mindset with a bad attitude. If the man was less aggressive, smiled a bit about having a platform, and had some “positivity” with how he carries himself people would pay attention. No one in this space wants to stare at negativity.(banging heads is the sport not negativity)
