The trash-talking between Jamahal Hill and Jiri Prochazka seems to be heating up ahead of their title eliminator fight at UFC 311 in January. The two former champions have been berating each other on social media over whose loss to light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira was the worst ever since the fight was announced.
It is worth noting that both fighters were KO’d by the champion, Pereira in their last fight. However, Prochazka has faced and lost to the Brazilian twice whereas Hill has only lost to him once.
Moreover, Hill does not see Prochazka as a major threat to him. He believes he will get the finish very early on when they do face each other in January.
So in a recent YouTube video for his own channel, Hill broke down the difference between the two losses. While suggesting that there is a huge difference between their respective losses, he said:
“We had the same opponent in our last fight, right? In your last performance, you got dominated and knocked out. You got dominated, and I got caught. There’s a huge difference…you just survive and scrape by with a win. We’re not the same.”
Jamahal Hill WENT OFF on Jiri Prochazka 😳

"Your last performance, you got dominated and knocked out... I got caught, you got dominated. It's a huge difference...
[Alex] literally had your ponytail leaning to the left."
