Hill returned to the octagon at UFC 300 following an Achilles injury that kept him out of action for nearly a year. His return didn't go to plan, however, as he suffered a first round KO defeat at the hands of 'Poatan'.

Following the fight, 'Sweet Dreams' has called for a rematch against the Brazilian, blaming a confusing incident with a low-blow prior to the finish as the reason he lost. Hill recently uploaded a video on his YouTube channel calling out Pereira, demanding a bout against him whether he wins or loses this weekend.

'The American Gangster' reacted to the clip of Hill speaking, which was shared by Championship Rounds on X. Sonnen wrote:

"Straight FIRE"

#2 Michael 'Venom' Page and Ian Garry's son share touching moment after UFC 303 press conference

Michael 'Venom' Page and Ian Garry have surprised fans, after a video showed Page sharing a touching moment backstage with Garry and his son back following the pre-fight press conference.

'MVP' and 'The Future' are tasked with kicking off the main card at UFC 303 in bout that promises to deliver fireworks. Not only do the two flashy strikers make for entertaining viewing, but the pair have seemingly ignited a rivalry between themselves over recent weeks by firing shots in interviews and on social media.

That rivalry has now come into question, however, after ESPN MMA shared a video of the two welterweights backstage. In the clip, which was filmed after their heated press conference, Page is all smiles as he chats with Garry and meets his son, Leandro Vegas Machado Gary, for the first time.

#1 Max Holloway predicts UFC 303 main event

BMF champ Max Holloway recently weighed in on Alex Pereira and Jiri Prochazka's rematch this weekend.

The two light heavyweight stars are set to run back their UFC 295 bout, which previously saw 'Poatan' clinch the then vacant 205-pound title by finishing 'Denisa' in the second round.

Following their first fight, both Pereira and Prochazka competed at UFC 300 and each picked up victories. The Brazilian defeated Jamahal Hill, whereas Prochazka stopped Aleksandar Rakic.

Discussing the fight on his YouTube channel, 'Blessed' believes how both fighters have acted since their latest victories will play a big part in the result. According to Holloway, this fight is Prochazka's to lose, as Pereiria has been focused on fulfiling champion duties. He explained:

If there is a time to get Mr. Pereira in a fight, the time is now. Jiri was in his hut right after UFC 300 training for a fight, training for something...Mr. Pereira, on the other hand, was on the opposite side of the world doing world tours. In Australia doing side missions like he's been. He's always been doing side missions, man, this guy is a G."
