Alex Pereira expects Jamahal Hill to be 100 percent healthy at UFC 300: ‘He knows who he’ll be fighting’

LAS VEGAS – A lot has been said about Jamahal Hill’s form entering UFC 300.

The former UFC light heavyweight champion will attempt to get the title back Saturday against champion Alex Pereira in the main event of the historic pay-per-view. This will be the first fight for Hill (12-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC) since he relinquished his title in July after he ruptured his Achilles tendon.

Given the nature of the injury and the fairly quick recovery, some question if Hill be 100 percent come fight night, but Pereira (9-2 MMA, 6-1 UFC) isn’t one of them.
