Jamahal Hill predicts Jiri Prochazka vs. Alex Pereira title fight

In a recent appearance on the Believe You Me podcast, Jamahal Hill, the former light heavyweight champion, shared his insights on the vacant title fight between Jiri Prochazka and Alex Pereira.

Hill praised Pereira's discipline in sticking to his game plan and avoiding falling for the tricky maneuvers that might come from his opponent, Prochazka:

"Alex [Pereira] isn't going for that, he's not going for the tricks, he's not going for all the outlet because he has the specific mission and specific points in places he wants to be when he's striking and when he's engaging, and I think Alex is better at getting into those spots than Jiri is."
"I think if he can use his unorthodoxness instead of trying to strike, actually get in and mix...clinch him up, beat him up in the clinch, drag him to the ground. And I think that would more so be his best way of making it an all around mixed martial arts fight."
