In the final stretch of preparation for the first defense of the light heavyweight belt (up to 93kg), Alex Poatán provided a real warning signal to the rival Jamahal hill. In a video released by the coach Glover Teixeira, the Brazilian 'explodes' a punching bag and ends the activity. The MMA star heads the UFC 300, on April 13.

“This is the way to rest. You want to rest early, you bastard”, Glover joked after his pupil’s action.

A Brazilian sensation in mixed martial arts, Alex achieved rapid rise in Ultimate. Hired by the company in 2021, the athlete has two belts in the company, being the only fighter from his home country to accumulate titles in different categories.

No UFC 300, Poatan will try to maintain his light heavyweight reign, which he began at the end of last season. Jamahal hill, in turn, seeks to regain the title he relinquished after suffering a serious injury last year.
