UFC 300’s Jamahal Hill eyes future at Heavyweight: ‘What the f—k is a power advantage?’

Welcome to Midnight Mania!

Jamahal Hill is simply eight days away from the largest struggle of his skilled profession. The previous champion is returning after almost a yr away on account of a nasty Achilles tear in opposition to the present Mild Heavyweight kingpin, Alex Pereira. The duo will meet in the principle occasion of UFC 300, which is scheduled for subsequent weekend (Sat. April 13, 2024) contained in the T-Cell Enviornment in Las Vegas, Nevada.

It’s a big problem for Hill, however that hasn’t stopped Hill from seeking to the long run. In a latest interview with GiveMeSport, Hill eyed a Heavyweight transfer and notably a match up in opposition to present interim kingpin Tom Aspinall. He doesn’t see dimension or energy as a problem.

“I normally stroll round possibly like 240 [pounds],” Hill mentioned. “I’m 240 proper now, bro. Bro, I’m making an attempt to inform you, bro, I’m an enormous boy. I’m an enormous canine. It’s potential. It’s potential, bro.”

He continued “What the f—okay is an influence benefit? The sport is, it doesn’t matter who’s extra highly effective. What it comes all the way down to is who’s going to hit who first, however we each obtained energy. You is usually a thousand instances extra highly effective than me. I hit you first. What does that imply? That’s sport.”

The latter half if notably attention-grabbing given his upcoming match up in opposition to “Poatan.” Pereira is without doubt one of the strongest hitters within the sport, however Hill doesn’t appear to assume an excessive amount of of that trait.

We’ll see if it comes into play subsequent weekend.
