Despite the massive gap in experience, Hill was able to land early and often. He landed an impressive 68 total strikes with an accuracy of 53% and did similar numbers in significant strikes. ‘OSP’ was not as effective with his offense. He landed 37 total strikes with an accuracy of 51%. And 36 significant strikes with an accuracy of 50%. 

The finishing sequence saw ‘Sweet Dreams’ hurt St Preux with a few good shots as he backed up against the cage. Once Hill had his opponent up against the fence, he unloaded a barrage of lethal punch combinations along with venomous knees that did a lot of damage.

After ‘OSP’ absorbed multiple unanswered power shots, Jason Herzog stepped in and called the fight to protect him from absorbing further damage.

This was Hill’s fourth fight in the UFC. He is now 3-1-0 in the UFC. With a win over St Preux, he has all but ensured a rank in the top 15. It will not be long before we see ‘Sweet Dreams’ in the top 10 if he is able to maintain the level of performances displayed thus far.
