Alex Pereira is desperate to feature at UFC 301, which is going to take place in Brazil. Many believe that he has a clause in his contract that will allow him to do this. However, Jamahal Hill has completely laughed off this entire news. In his recent interview with Bisping, he shared the reason why this is not possible. The former UFC champion asked him whether he was aware of any such news. The 32-year-old replied to the question and said, “I heard him say that”.

He further added, “Bro, they don’t do clauses like that, you know. Imagine telling Hunter and Dana, hey put this in my contract. They’ll say that like we’ll see. Most of they will tell you was like. We’ll see what happens if you get through this. We’ll see what happens. But there’s no clause. When have you ever had a clause in your contract?”

Despite coming off an injury the 32-year-old doesn’t fear the ‘Poatan’ and his hype. In his recent interview on X(formerly Twitter), he issued a warning to the current champion. 

He said, “I think I match up very well against him. I feel like everything I feel like I am just better. In most interviews, I am truly truly better than him period. That is just the way it is. I am better than him everywhere, I just don’t wanna keep saying it I wanna get out there and show it. It’s not going to go well for him. I’m loving all the talk all the hype there that Pereira is this and that and all that s..t. ” He also mentioned that he would be outclassing the former two-division champion when they meet inside the Octagon.
