Sharing a rather cordial fight week ahead of their high-profile UFC 300 headliner this weekend, all pleasantries were firmly left outside the MGM Grand tonight ahead of the pre-fight press conference, with Alex Pereira and Jamahal Hill sharing some verbal intensities prior to their huge clash.
Pereira, the current undisputed light heavyweight champion, returns to the Octagon this weekend in search of his first successful defense of the divisional crown – which he landed last November.
Turning in a second round win over fellow UFC 300 feature and another former champion, Jiri Prochazka, Sao Paulo knockout ace, Pereira welcomes Hill back to the sport for the first time since January of last year, where the Illinois native won himself vacant spoils.
