Jamahal Hill sought guidance from UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya in preparation for his upcoming clash against Alex Pereira. In a recent interview with Kevin Iole, Hill disclosed that he and Adesanya had a meaningful conversation during his UFC 300 camp. Hill praised Adesanya for providing valuable insights and being open about his experiences, particularly regarding Pereira.
Following Pereira’s callout of Adesanya after UFC 295, Adesanya reassured Hill of his commitment to securing a title shot. Hill, before suffering an injury, secured four consecutive wins, notable among them being knockouts of Johnny Walker and Thiago Santos.
Pereira’s loss to Adesanya at UFC 287 marked his transition from middleweight to light heavyweight, following a career-defining fight at UFC 281. Hill’s meticulous preparations, including collaboration with Adesanya, highlight the significance of his upcoming bout.
With UFC 300 looming, Hill remains focused on his preparations, drawing from Adesanya’s advice. The outcome of the fight will determine if Hill’s partnership with Adesanya proves pivotal in securing victory against Pereira.
