When [autotag]Jamahal Hill[/autotag] saw [autotag]Alex Pereira[/autotag] at the UFC Peformance Institute, he kept his same energy from social media to real life.
Hill on Thursday confronted Pereira at the UFC PI in Las Vegas. To no surprise, the interaction was far from amicable as the two sized each other up with Hill doing most of the talking. At one point, Pereira can be seen signaling Hill to strap on gloves and step in the cage.

Hill and Pereira have history. The two fought this past April at UFC 300 in a light heavyweight championship fight. Although scheduled for 25 minutes, “Poatan” only needed just a little more than three minutes to knock out Hill – who has claimed Pereira’s KO was a fluke and not a real representation of a fight between them.
Since the bout, Hill and Pereira have jabbed at each other in the media and have gone back and forth on social media.
Pereira defended his UFC light heavyweight title against Khalil Roundtree in August and is expected to face Magomed Ankalaev sometime in 2025. Meanwhile, Hill was recently scheduled to fight former champion Jiri Proichazka at UFC 311 on Jan. 18 in Los Angeles.
