Jon Anik excited at UFC 300 main event matchup

UFC commentator Jon Anik believes the UFC 300 main event between Alex Pereira and Jamahal Hill is going to deliver fireworks.

'Poatan' will be making the first defence of his light heavyweight belt, whereas Hill is hoping to reclaim gold after being previously vacating the title due to an Achilles injury.

Anik was recently asked for his thoughts on the bout by MMAFightingSBN, where he shared his excitement about the matchup. According to Anik, both men are deserving of the UFC 300 main event slot, but he is curious as to how Hill's Achilles holds up. He said:

"This main event is unbelievable... Pereira certainly deserves to headline this card. Jamahal Hill skill-wise is criminally under-appreciated. So me for, my only question mark with the main event is Jamahal Hill's Achilles. Which he intends to confirm to me, I'm sure at the fighter meeting, that it's 100% good to go. All systems go. I think the main event is fantastic. I'm really excited for this fight card."
