Cast to star UFC Kansas City on April 26, Jamahal hill predicts good chances of returning to winning ways after facing Khalil rountree. Aware that his opponent has a violent style, the former light heavyweight champion (up to 93kg) claims to have characteristics that allow him to take advantage of the posture displayed by his compatriot in the octagon.

“What I like about the fight is that he’s a popular name right now. So a lot of people are liking him. He’s had some exciting fights and he’s an exciting fighter. He comes to fight, and my skill set and what I do really well are things that he’s not prepared for. You know, the things that I do well, I don’t think he does as well as I do. I think my game is very, very open in this fight,” Hill told Anthony Smith.

“Yes (he is predictable). He is explosive, hits hard, comes forward and believes in his ability to finish. I believe those are all things I will be able to turn against him,” he concluded.
