Following the fight, a buoyant Hill said, “he’s a scraper. He’s a fighter. I just wanted to come out and show what I really am- dominant.”
Safe to say, the 205 pounder is exactly that as he has an unblemished record in the UFC. In his first fight in January, the former Dana White contender fighter beat Darko Stosic.
What did you make of Jamahal Hill’s quick finish and fighting style in dealing with grapplers? Is it something certain other fighters should make use of when dealing with fighters having strong mat skills?
