Alex Pereira and Jamahal Hill are all set to contest for Pereira’s light heavyweight title at the main event of UFC 300. That’s right, the fight is upon us and in the recent presser, the former champion and the reigning champion had things to say to one another despite the language barrier.

Those who know Pereira, know that he doesn’t speak just about any English during his appearances on camera. The Brazilian is known for conquering matches and the hearts of fans with one word, “chama”. Yet, for Hill, he had more than one word to say.

Jamahal Hill receives a warning from Alex Pereira but laughs it off

Jamahal Hill had come to the press conference carrying the stone-face emoji attached to the chain as if it were the head of ‘Poatan’. Of course, Alex Pereira took notice of it and wasn’t very thrilled to see the show of disrespect.

“I’ll make him remember this moment when I’m in my walkout about to go to the Octagon and my music is playing.” said the champ. “I’ll make him remember this moment.” In response to this, Hill had a very dismissive attitude almost as if not taking his opponent seriously.

“Write it down, take a picture, I don’t give a f*ck.” Said Hill, “. . . you step in there with me, ain’t nothing to talk about. Ain’t nothing to say. It’s all right here and I’m on your as*.” He was audibly heard saying that Pereira must not know who he was speaking to.

Of course, Hill is asserting his dominance as the former champion. In a podcast with Demetrious Johnson, he also said that he was very interested in knocking Pereira out cold to which ‘Mighty Mouse’ laughed loudly in entertainment. Clearly, the idea of it is interesting and Hill wanting to fight ‘Poatan’ on his feet will showcase a potentially massive brawl. While Hill has exchanged his words, he’s also shown Pereira’s power respect before.

Hill’s hilarious skit

Jamahal Hill took to his Instagram handle to post a skit of him kicking a pretend-Alex Pereira. In the video, Hill enacts himself getting knocked down right after Pereira checks his leg kick to which Hill says, perhaps he should just stick to boxing instead.

Clearly, the two are trying to showcase a bitter rivalry and invoke a fighting spirit to not only bring the fans to the stands but also give their best. In truth, the battle could be blow for blow. However, Hill’s Achilles tendon injury could be a problem.

Especially for an Alex Pereira who is infamous for his leg kicks. Will this fight be a lopsided one? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
