Protagonist of the night, Jamahal hill I was already waiting for the strategy of Thiago Marreta No. UFC Las Vegas 59, an event that took place last Saturday (6). In a post-event press interview, the North American says he prepared to avoid the Brazilian's falls and celebrated victory in the Ultimate Octagon. He left with his 'arms raised' after knocking out his opponent in the fourth round.
“I expected that. I knew he would try to take me down. He didn't really want to feel my hands. He said something in an interview about our team. I just smiled, as if I already knew what was coming, since I had foreseen everything. I’m happy,” Hill said.

Hill also smiled with every takedown defense he managed against Marreta. The North American, despite being losing until the fourth round, turned things around and scored a technical knockout on the Brazilian. Even so, he 'laid down' in the Octagon as a sign of tiredness due to the intensity of the blows.
Tenth in the rankings, Jamahal should move up positions and get closer to the top-5 of light heavyweights (up to 93kg), a category led by Jiri Prockazha. In his career, which began in 2017, the American has a record of 11 wins, one loss and one 'no result' fight. He subsequently surpassed Johnny Walker e Thiago Marreta.
