Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jamahal Hill is offering a bold challenge to his critics: face him in the gym for a chance to win $20,000. This aggressive offer follows Hill’s recent dip in popularity, largely due to his confrontational attitude towards fans and critics.

Background and Recent Fight

Hill, known as “Sweet Dreams,” has been under the radar since a knockout loss to reigning division champion Alex Pereira at UFC 300. This defeat marked a significant setback, but Hill is set to make his comeback against Carlos Ulberg at UFC 303 on June 29, 2024  . However, Hill’s return isn’t just about reclaiming his spot in the octagon; he’s also throwing down a gauntlet to the MMA community at large.

The Instagram Challenge

In a recent Instagram post, Hill lashed out at Pereira, accusing him of exploiting a confusing situation during their fight. Hill had landed a low blow, and while he was trying to recover, Pereira insisted on continuing the fight without the intervention of referee Herb Dean. This incident sparked a wave of criticism from fans, prompting Hill to issue his monetary challenge.

Hill’s post stated:

“You can talk all the trash you want, but in the end, someone is going to say something back. For all of you talking so much about fighting… we can talk money instead. $20,000! Come to the gym. Anyone… you all talk on social media, I’ve got $20,000. Come to the gym, bro, come and make money. I know you’re poor and need it.”
