Former UFC Champ Criticizes Fans Over UFC 300 Backlash
In the wake of the much-anticipated UFC 300, former light heavyweight champion Jamahal Hill addressed the mixed reactions from fans regarding the main event featuring him against the reigning champion Alex Pereira. Despite the event being packed with high-caliber matches, the choice of Pereira vs Hill as the headliner drew criticism from fans who had hoped for a more star-studded matchup, akin to a Conor McGregor return.
Hill, not holding back, labeled the fans’ expectations as unrealistic and expressed disappointment over their criticism. He pointed out that the main card was stacked with titleholders and challengers of high repute, each match worthy of headlining its own event. Yet, the backlash was significant, with fans expressing dissatisfaction over the event’s lineup.
