Jamahal Hill Has Stern Warning For Jiří Procházka & Alex Pereira Ahead Of UFC 295
Jamahal Hill has a clear message for the winner of Jiří Procházka vs. Alex Pereira.
It was recently announced that Procházka and Pereira will collide in the co-main event of UFC 295 on November 11. The bout will be contested for the vacant UFC Light Heavyweight Championship. It's a title that both Hill and Procházka had to vacate due to injury. Now that Procházka is healthy, he gets a chance to reclaim the gold, while Hill will get his opportunity down the road.
The New York City clash in Madison Square Garden between Procházka and Pereira figures to be a barn burner. Fans are having a tough time making a prediction on this one. Even Hill believes it's a toss up. With that said, "Sweet Dreams" has a warning for both Procházka and "Poatan."

During an appearance on the "Believe You Me" podcast, Jamahal Hill told Anthony Smith that if he never suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon, he would've given both Procházka and Pereira the business.
"Honestly, if I had my choice and had my pick, I would have not gotten hurt, I would've had them both be in the position that they are and I would've whooped their ass one by one."
Ultimately, Hill doesn't have a preference when it comes to fighting the winner of the vacant light heavyweight title fight. He simply feels either fight works in his favor.
"No, they both sound like extremely fun fights," Hill said. "Extremely fun nights for me."
