Last Saturday (29) was marked by another chapter in the saga between Alex Poatán e Jiri Prochazka for the UFC light heavyweight belt (up to 93kg). The Brazilian successfully defended his title by overcoming the Czech with a brutal knockout in the second round. The main fight of UFC 303 captured the attention of the world of MMA, including an attentive spectator: Jamahal hill, a rival who succumbed to the champion in April this year, but who does not hide his desire for a rematch.
Accompanied by thousands of fans on an Instagram live, Hill watched the last moments of the fight between Poatan and Prochazka with apprehension. Surprise took over the fighter when the Brazilian delivered a devastating high kick to the Czech challenger's head, followed by a series of relentless hammer blows that left Jiri staggering and unable to continue.

Visibly impressed with Poatan's performance, Jamahal hill It didn't take long for him to express himself on social media. On his account on X (formerly Twitter), the North American promised to meet with the São Paulo native again.
“So, I only have one more fight left for me to knock out and I’ll see you soon. Here we go. That was insane, that was incredible. I'm going to knock out the next fighter and we're going to fight again. It’s not over yet,” said the former champion.
The rivalry between Poatan and Hill has deep roots. In April of this year, in UFC 300, the Brazilian had already proven his firepower, knocking out the former champion brutally in the first round. The rematch, however, has become an obsession for the American, who is looking for redemption and the chance to prove that he can match the light heavyweight champion.
