I don’t think a fully focused hill beats Alex either way.
I agree but it’s def gives him a way better chance
Alex cant wrestle.
@@NV-uv3ivJamal cant even stay focused after landing a nutshot on his opponent.
Honestly Hill wasn't doing so bad until Herb came in to pause the fight. If that didn't happen who knows maybe Hill's next kick could have been to Alex's head.
@@NV-uv3ivso?
Hill threw the right hand, Alex slipped it and threw the lethal shovel hook at the same time. Fair play.
As he's slapping the hand away he steps on Hills foot to hold him in place. It's almost like he planned to do it in the first round. High fight IQ
@@bryandraves3573 Yep 100%. The foot step was unnoticed by most!
@@bryandraves3573 more like poor fight iq and reaching to sound like you're smart and notice things. He barely applied pressure to his foot. Hill got caught it's not that deep
@@bryandraves3573wow you actually believe that was on purpose 😂 to hold him in place? My god bro
Hill through the left hand
They touched gloves before Alex threw the punch. He didn't lost focus.
they touched gloves and then Hill was pawing with the jab just rewatched it, he didn't loose anything but the fight
Exactly!
And bro threw a cross at the same time
I feel like this waving off the ref went form being a badass moment to an excuse for why he got smoked. If anyone lost focus it was Alex for having to shift his focus to waving off the ref after getting kicked in the NUTS!
@@BGSWGN32 Exactly
New mythical fighter unlocked: Focused Jamahal Hill
lmfaoooo
ROFL
Hahahahahaha this comment is fire!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Jamal Hill didn't only lose his focus, he lost his soul.
I’m not sure that’s something that could even happen in human v human fisticuffs
He didn’t train before the fight
Jambalaya asked Alex for a autograph and got tattooed
his consciousness and some brain cells*
@@exiledhebrew1994David is gonna be a star
As soon as Chael picked Jamahal on the preshow, I put money on Poatan immediately. Thanks again Chael. You've been really clutch for my betting.
Chael saying Volk would beat Topuria won me good money
He was right about max tho🤷♂️
where was the preshow
@@Tony-gh8ggI don’t think he ever actually picked Max, he just kept talking about how all the other fighters were picking Max
@@brandonwemp8568 he said he eventually picked max but it wasnt an originial idea - he spoke to 9 other fighters, they all said max and chael decided theyd seen something he hadnt maybe
Herb Dean called "Time" got pushed away & Herb said "Continue".. Protect yourself at all times
Should of been a separation of the fighters and then let them continue… what happened was a complete disgrace to the UFC!! 😤😡🤬
@@CONCERNEDcitizenforeverwhat 😂😂
@@CONCERNEDcitizenforever Don't mess with Brazilians.
@@CONCERNEDcitizenforeveryou fanboys are something else lol hill threw a punch first and alex slipped it and slept him. Would you be more happy if alex got hit first so he would know hills ready
Yup. Not the hugest deal in the world, but it wasn't handled properly and it does give Alex a slight advantage. If Ref stops the action, Ref should step in even if just for a second and follow the normal procedure and then restart the action. Not doing that is distracting to the fighters and since Alex was the one dictating the weird sequence and Jamal simply reacting to it, it puts Jamal at the disadvantage. I think Herb understands that and we won't ever see a repeat of what happened last weekend.
So let me get this straight. Alex gets kicked in the nuts, and somehow hall is the one that loses focus. Alex waves Dean off.
Alex Touches his gloves with Jamal to let each other know they're back in the fight. Jamal throws a punch that alex dodges and alex throws a left hook of his own that lands
At what point did he lose focus, to me it just seemed like he lost straight up
tbh whether he lost focus or not is irrelevant. He signalled that he was ready to keep fighting. If he got distracted by a big pair of tits in the front row would chael still be saying this? Part of the job of high level athletes is to stay focused on their sport regardless of whats going on around him, and if you cant do that then you shouldnt be fighting at the highest level.
Watch the whole video you bum, hill glances at herb looking for a reset in the action , Alex should’nt be able to push off herb that way controlling the action. Hill disengages , Alex cuts the angle and gets closer .. lights out moments after
Alex was not moving. That nut kick from Jamal was intentional. It made the knockout even more pleasurable.
It is a valid point. I'm not ragging on Dean because it was heat of the moment decision but we can't have Refs saying "break" and then one or the other fighter unilaterally overriding the ref. Jamal did what he was supposed to do and obeyed the Ref and stopped. He's expecting Herb to step in the middle, ask Alex if he's all right, and then restart the action. Instead, Alex suddenly becomes the Ref and unilaterally restarts the action. Alex is dictating all this unusual behavior. Jamal has to react to all the unusual behavior. That gives Alex big advantage. I think Alex wins either way, but it wasn't handled properly and we can't have it working this way moving forward.
@@callanc3925 If the Ref stopped the fight because of the big tits, then yes. Herb erred in the way he handled it. If he says stop, the fight should stop and HERB should be the one who restarts it, not Alex. It was not the standard way a stoppage is supposed to work, which is distracting in itself, but worse is the fact Alex was basically dictating the entire sequence which means for Alex he knows exactly what's going on while for Jamal he's like "WTF" and has to react to all this weirdness as it happens. Not the hugest deal in the world, but moving forward we can't allow this type situation to repeat itself because you can easily imagine scenarios where it could unfold far more unfairly than it did here.
Jamal was wronged. Certainly not intentionally and not that egregiously and not enough to make a big deal about it. But he was wronged and the Refs should all observe what happened here and resolve not to let it happen again. I bet Herb has already done that in his mind.
"I beat that guy one time" A quote that will go down in MMA history forever

What's stopping Izzy from going up a division fighting Alex then? @@Jackrabfanyo
It’s crazy to think how different the timeline would be if Izzy hadn’t gotten caught by Alex in the 5th and just coasted to a UD win in their trilogy.
@@Jackrabfanyoyeah nah that’s not what it means. Izzy would get bodybagged at 205. Alex was drained, have you seen the size of the fella? He weighs 250 out of camp and he made 185…
@@jaesterling7546That’s what happens in a fight. You can’t win for the better part of 5 rounds and think you’re done before the final buzzer…that’s how you get knocked out. Ask Izzy about that.
taking a left hook like that will make you loose focus
You also might lose focus. 😁
I would have a hard time keeping my focus after my brain was bounced off the side of my skull.
Yup. That'll do it
No he was distracted by his own foul.
Shit, he made Jamahal lose focus like 3 times in a row with that gnp.
Why is chael making excuse for Jamahal
Seriously!
That’s one of his buddy’s and “favorite fighters”
@@chaunceyguy3810 Who cares better to be real than have a thin cracking facade.
Monetization.
He is making excuses for anyone that fights Poatan. Sad
Your right as soon as Alex hit him he lost focus
Focused or not that man was going to sleep.
Ty! Just seems like another way to try to take away from Alex's accomplishments and the win itself
@@11reyessoccerwell he threw a left first and got countered. It’s not like alex threw first right after pushing the ref off
@@proverbs1268basically they just saying hill rhythm was thrown off look at the fight before he got koed they were playing the feet game lol
@@hotsh20t74 Alex walked him down, there was no space for him to move unless he ran
@@MrFaceNumeroUno it was a bad ass moment and KO, but I do wish he hadn't had that lapse in focus so we could've had a slightly longer fight. Most likely would've ended in a highlight reel KO from Periera either way tho.
Imagine being in a cage, standing across from Poatan, in the middle of a fight with him - and then "losing focus" for any reason at all whatsoever.
Not champion character.
I've watched it many times. I've watched it many times looking at Jamahal. He doesn't miss any beats. In fact, Poatan takes a slight step BACK just after he touches Herb's hand to wave him off from calling a timeout. The two fighters then touch hands and they both begin to do the same thing they'd been doing. Then, 2 seconds after the brief timeout attempt, Poatan pulls Jamahal's lead hand down and fires a left hand and Jamahal tries to fire his own power left, and Poatan slips it as he knocks Jamahal to the ground with his left.
There's nothing else at play other than Jamahal was completely outclassed. He has no clue how to strike at Poatan's level. And YOU, Chael, are trying to cope over how hard you tried to promote Jamahal's chances of beating Poatan. You tried to sell those tickets so hard that you believe it yourself, even after his loss.
Jamahal never was that great. There was nothing shocking about his loss. There is nothing to talk about, speculate or dissect. Jamahal was never that good, and Poatan is one of the GOATS.
Yep, pretty much. Mostly untrained guys like Tuivasa and Hill are good, and they have punchers chance at being champions. Pereira is a professional striker, unlike the amateur Hill. Poatan made it look easy.
Very well said! I agree with everything you wrote!
Alex also stepped on hills lead foot to trap him from moving as well. Jamahal was going to lose regardless
Watch your dumb mouth when sharing your opinion to Chael who will never read this lol
They really did a good job promoting the bs narrative of Hill best striker, I was giving more of a chance to Hill for some indescribable reason. But a KO so early in the round doesn't mean Poatan got lucky, it means Hill wasn't good enough to stand with him any longer, Poatan needed one opening and he capitalised, I'm willing to accept that Hill lost focus, but that's completely on him, resetting the position to reward Hill after he himself hit low is oxymoron personified. But yeah, this is a sport where you can win off eye pokes, so garbage excuses like these are nothing out of the ordinary. wHy diDn'T rEf CaLL tiMeoUt aFteR I LoW BLowEd hIM? Like, what a bunch of nonsense.
You aren't talking about Pereira stepping on Jamahal Hill's foot and making a faint with his right hand just before knocking him out with his left hook. That was actually the distraction, not Hearb Dean.
It was herb too.
@@trelljilesexcuses. Go cry
Hill lost focus---- Cody had vertigo--
Rakic had a staph infection-- Holly wasn't focused-- man all these EXCUSES from the MF'ers is WEAK. The ONLY one who had 'excuses' ....... Alex had a broken toe, Alex can't wrestle,, Alex has no chin BLAH BLAH BLAH...... Yet ALL Alex does is go clip dudes and put them out, with ZERO excuses...
No one is talking about how Alex stood on Hill's foot. Gangsta
'footwork'
Growing up on the streets in the 70's& 80's we had lots of street fights . No guns or weapons, just old fashion fighting. Well I had a friend , the toughest guy for miles . His thing was when he was going in he would hook his foot behind the other guys ankle. So when the guy tried to back up he was unable to and loose balance . Then the left's and rights would take over . I tried it a few times and it worked .
Southpaw v orthodox, ah hello
this
That’s not ilegal; it’s part of the game; this is Mix Martial Arts (MMA) almost everything is legal except punching in the back of the head or kicking the balls! 🤔
It's so funny how wrestlers can't get pass the fact that a striker is ruling the game.
There is no excuse... They even touched gloves after Herb steps back! When they got back at it, Jamahal threw a punch right before being knocked out!
Hill, DC and (now) Chael are starting to create this narrative to stain Pereira 's victory.
True
Hill really was distracted. If you can't see that then you're a bias casual
@@SlapDamagethen please explain how he was so distracted that he threw a left before any other strike was thrown? Calling someone bias while clearly overlooking straight facts is CRAZY!!!!
What did Hill say about it? From what I’ve seen he took the loss no excuses but maybe he made a follow up statement
@@SlapDamage, if Hill lost focus it was his problem. The fight was on! And Pereira even had good sportsmanship to touch gloves with him to continue the fight after getting rid of Herb Dean.
Losing focus is generally what happens when you take a Pereira left hook to the face
Loosing focus is not a fighter's excuse. Alex with broken toe, he fights. Low blow to Alex, he fights.
Jamahal hill could have had the focus of a Tibetan monk and his night was still ending the moment pereira threw that left.
lol 10 minutes talking about footwork and doesn't even mention that Pereira steps over Jamahal front foot just before the left hook
Uncle Chael looking like the Schmo without the cocaine
Uncle chael looking like the schmo with the cocaine
Without?
*With more
Another pathetic casual take from Chael. Hill gave him three hand grabs and throw a punch before getting KO'd.
Not really, Poatan was piecing him up the whole fight. He did however, lose consciousness.
Alex is the one that took a nut shot and just said keep going. The dude is a legend.
No excuses lol hill isn't on Alex's level
Lost FOCUS???
Lost CONCIOUSNESS!!!
LoL!!
Dude the fight was over when Alex waved off Herb Dean after getting low blowed. Jamahal must have been like "damn that was gangst-" CRACK "... where am I"
That left hook really just snuck through perfectly. Not a big winding punch: straight, precise, forceful and tight. Beautiful shot. Alex is slowly becoming one of the most intriguing and beloved UFC stars. If he defends the belts3-4 times and EVER wins a HW title, he’s in the GOAT debate.
I think Aspinall can stand up to him, and make Alex the underdog for once.
He's in the GOAT debate if he can defend the LHW title a few more times, forget winning the HW belt. If he does that, he has a really strong argument against ducking Jones, which I would definitely favor him in. Jones has a complete resume, but he never cleared the LHW as dominantly as Alex is doing rn.
But Chael I thought Alex wasn’t as good as we thought?
bro uncle chael literally got a video saying that poatan proved he knows nothing about mma
@@vrrooooommmm123I mean chael just has no idea what he's talking about about who in their right mind would think hill could out kick box Alex and then he tried to pin it on everyone else like everyone else wasn't picking Alex
@@mannyxxxiilix4328I've seen many who didn't pick Poatan. Those of us that did should take pride in the fact we know what we're talking about lmao.
@@vrrooooommmm123 yeah after he made that first video bro
Exactly even the professional fighters dont know wtf they talking about and they should its there sport but we know i said bet the house on alex but everybody was picking salty mal hill 🧂🧂 😂😂@@MorAodhan
Yeah you lose focus when you get concussed by a left hand
His eyes were on Alex, he didn't see the punch coming until it was too late. Chael watch it again.
Hill hasn’t fought in over a year, he’s coming off a injury and that pooch belly told me he hasn’t been training like Alex who’s been constantly fighting. I can’t believe the amount of mma professionals who picked Hill to win. Alex should of been a -500.
Fuck Chael, that Left hook made me lose focus
😂
Guys please use your freaking eyes and watch it back in slow motion. Jamahal literally threw a fucking punch first and got countered by a left hook. Fully pivoted and threw a straight left
@@chuckles9767 you guys love to make excuses for fighters it’s genuinely embarrassing what are we doing. Please stop coping he got countered that’s just what happened. If ur aware enough to know a guys in range to throw your own punch then you are aware. He got countered end of story.
@@chuckles9767well it ended up being fair, because alex wasn't focused either. He had just been kicked in the nuts.
Look at that. Zero excuses!
Yeah if it was position he wanted he would have acted accordingly. He had plenty of time to take the outside, instead he went for an attack.
@@chuckles9767 cope harder.
Jamal is a bum. I'm sorry he got sent to the land of ghosts and shadows but he needs to stay there.
His claim to fame is ko'ing Johnny Walker. Alex would absolutely humiliate every single fighter hill has faced.
@@cineris2389 don't bother. You're having an argument with with people who are sad or lost money. Theyll cry regardless
I went back and watched it, he didn't lose focus. He touched gloves, got back in his stance and was ready to go. He just lost.
"They're just balls...it's no big deal."
Epic lol
The problem is not focus. Its that left Alex's left hook is broken. UFC need a balance patch to fix that. Alex is OP!
Also his right calf kick
😂 mofo needs a nerf we don't like this meta
😂😂 bruh I'm stitches.…i guess that L to Adesanya was cuz he didn't finish downloading that new update😂 Alex’s domination run right now got me questioning what happened that fight? Alex can't be stopped right now
In this fight the focus was 100% the problem. I still think Pereira would have won to be fair but we can't know for sure.
@TheSoulmantp2 that was just a case of try enough and you will win eventually he'll statistically if we fought alex every day forever eventually we would get lucky also
Once again Chael living in an alternative dimension. Jamahal never turn away once.
No, he just lost because he’s not as good as he thinks he is. Also, his coach said “Jamahal’s striking is light years ahead of Alex’s”. Their whole camp is a bunch of clowns.
Right, they also touched gloves after the nut shot
Preliminary calculations showed his focus to be more than sufficient at 92.7%
Tbf he had to say that. It’s what you do for the mental. Its to offer the other invincible guy doubts
💯 they are completely delusional. Thinking your better striker than one of the proven best kickboxers in the world is just nuts. Anyone who thought Hill had a chance to stand with Poaton knows nothing. Huge experience gap between the two.
Meanwhile dj is laughing in jamahals face while he claims hes gonna stand and bang with alex
“They are just balls, it’s no big deal”
They were both standing in each other's range at the end. Jamahal actually threw his straight left quicker than Alex threw out the shovel hook. Jamahal didn't lose focus at the end; he just saw an opening and went for it. Alex saw the same opening and also decided to pounce on it. One guy landed and one guy didn't.
I think hill thought the tight was coming and was gonna counter that but it ended being like a hand trap and that left came so fast it didn't matter.
Hill got sent to the land of ghosts and shadows.
I saw that straight left from hill first , and i been trying to watch video but i can’t make out how hill didn’t land , did Alex see it coming, or what tha ? I’m puzzled,how hill didn’t land ???
"saying words that no one can understand, that person get listed as an expert" - Chael is the goat, HOF fighter and greatest broadcaster ever
Alex also stepped on Jamahals foot right before the left hook
Hill might have lost focus for a second, even if he didn’t, result would have been the same. Before the KO, DC said that Hill should NOT be dropping his right hand in response to those body jabs. Obviously, that was EXACTLY the response that Pereira wanted. That’s why he politely pushed Herb to the side…he already knew that this was the beginning of the end of the fight. Alex also stepped on Hill’s lead foot to hold him in place then 💥 erased his ass. It was a thing of beauty!
I thought the same thing. Jamahal stopped his 100% focus, only for a couple of seconds, and it cost him.
I might’ve felt bad for him, but he was the one who threw the nut shot. Unfortunate, but a KO is a KO. Defend at all times
There was a lead up to the next exchange and Poatan didn’t immediately jump on him, if hill lost his focus then that’s definitely his own problem as a fighter imo, plus hill literally throws the first punch on the next exchange, I really do not see any viable excuse for this L. The nut shot intentional or not shows a huge gap between these fighters cuz either it’s purposeful and he’s an asshole who got scared or it was accidental which means hill is just not very good
@@user-dk7jx8io4t it isn’t an excuse, it’s just observation. Attention got temporarily interrupted. Jamahal wasn’t quick enough to get back to 100% discipline, he threw a punch and got outplayed. Simple
@@user-dk7jx8io4t Thats the way i see it. Its not like herb stepped in and out and jamahal was sitting there with his hands down wondering what herb was doing. Jamahal got taken out of the moment briefly, got back into it but wasn't 100% there as if nothing happened and it cost him. Same thing can happen from being distracted by something happening outside the cage, its really just a sign of him not being at the highest level.
@@guybrushtwood He threw a punch, and if his punch landed, he would be considered a genius. So, its better just dont make excuses. He lost, he will be back, hopefully better and thats it.
@@mourao7892 I don’t think you understand my opinion. I wanted Poatan to win. Jamahal was super lame in the build up. I was stoked when Alex shovel hooked Jamahal’s lights out.
Was just saying that Hill lost his focus momentarily because of the ref. I even said that he should have been ready to defend himself at all times.
Chael officially watches Guru
Chael watches Rigo
Same thought lol. Guru noticed Hill lost focus instantly.
@@Explicitaz83 lol yep
Guru is a casual like chael
@@Explicitaz83he didnt lose any focus
After the nut shot Hill takes 3 steps to the left, plants, steps forward & throws a straight left.
Uncle Sonnen has nothing else to say so decided to spend his focus on a 11 min video that explains nothing but how great Poatan is
Hill made the first move after the break he threw a kick lol sorry but the bad guy is wrong here 😂
if u look at the real clip, hill never turned and he touched gloves before resuming. furthermore he took a counter step to the left as he touched gloves which makes this argument that pereria got some advantaged position during a loss of focus a bogus argument.
Uncle Chael, I hate to tell you that not only did jamal not “lose focus” he gave alex a thumbs up and a glove touch before they got back into it
He didn't lose focus, he lost consciousness.
“They’re just balls, no big deal” 🤣😂
Me personally I feel like Alex was already going to be a tuff fight but people might call me a casual which I don’t care becuase I’m a Muay Thai fighter my self 😂 and I can tell with over being in the ring/octagon when a ref like that happened you can look at hills face and can see he was clearly paying full attention to dean and was not even looking more focused on Alex but Alex on the other hand was full zoned in just straight locked in and that’s not a excuse to loosing 😂😂I just feel like if Hearb dean never got involved from the non threatening grion shot hill would’ve put some work in but it is what it is
Jamahal threw a a straight left before and alex countered with a left hook. He was focused enough the gage distance to know to throw so all this shit about him losing focus is complete bs. He literally threw a punch lmao
Jamahal got countered and shadow realm’d.
Jamahal literally threw a punch that Alex slipped and countered from, Hill saying he didnt have time to reset is bs.
I JUST LOVE THESE VIDEOS BY CHAEL............ HE DRIFTS AWAY FROM THE TOPIC TO LIKEN SITUATIONS AND THEN COMES BACK TO HIT THE NAIL BRUTALLY ON THE HEAD🤣🤣🤣
What nail, sounds like an excuse for Jamal getting smoked
@@TerryJamesColeI agree cuz if you ACTUALLY go back and watch you’ll see that there is a lead up to the exchange after the nut shot and to add onto that hill throws his left jab first and Poatan just slips and CRANKS that left
Bro the only thing that got brutally hit on the head is Jamal “I’m being overlooked” Hill and everyone saw what happened it’s pathetic to make lame excuses like this
😂Do not use the distraction excuse. Jamahal threw the first punch after the pause and got knocked tf out by the much better striker
They also touched gloves before Alex did anything
You won’t start throwing punches if you don’t know what’s going on, and clearly hill threw the first punch , he got countered lights out !
Wait until Chael finds out Alex stepped on Jamal hills foot before landing the KO
I appreciate that point of view, and i do think that partial interruption threw him off guard for a second. But i saw it differently.
Pereira saw smt in the position, managed to get him all the way backed close to the cage and could not let the ref call it off right there. He had Hill where he wanted and studied his movements + reactions for 3min.
Took a charge forward while grabbing Hill's lead hand down to set up the deadly hook.
A thing of beauty!
it was such a quick moment, too.
"Time out!.. oh, wait. Time in!" aaaand bada-boom
Hill took his eyes off the prize for one second and Alex capitalized on that so fast!
Chael never lost focus.. not even once
Not even for one minute of the fifth round.....undefeated, undisputed.
That's a terrible take. If a fighter who gets a Illegal blow says he is fine, why shouldn't he continue. Time out is to protect the one who received an illegal blow not the one who gave the illegal blow. Then Poatan first touched gloves with Hill and later (after a while) Countered Hill's Punch. Hill was the one who punched first.
Ya hill is straight making lame excuses for his loss is all, and somehow chael is eating it up, or more then likely just wants to make a controversial video to get people to click and comment... and well it worked.
No need to make excuses uncle Chael. You were wrong in your prediction, so just admit it brother. Chill.
They touched gloves and Alex was laser focused so that he didn't even look at the ref. Hill paid the price for it
A fully focused KEVIN LEE would beat anybody in any weight class
He da GOAT Fo sho
I saw what Alex didn’t with Herb, saw Jamal reaction too, I even saw Alex stepping Jamal’s foot in the knockout, but never saw the change of angle, this is genius from you.
Chael tells the girl at the optical store “Make the glasses extra loose.. I like to push them up every five seconds”😂
Hot take Jamahal Hill is not a top 5 LHW
Yup
QUOTE OF THE DAY "THEY ARE JUST BALLS, NO BIG DEAL"😅🤣😂
You can't lose what you don't have. Hill wasn't focused before, during or after the fight. He was scared. It's normal to be scared but Jamahal was scared out of his mind. With that said. I don't think a fully focused Hill beats this Pereira.
Amazing insight! Thanks Chael!
Undefeated. Undisputed. Unchallenged. Uncle Chael.
"Jamahal Hill, you absolutely SUCK!"
😂
Poatan’s best weapon is his left hook. Hill’s biggest weakness is he leaves himself open to a left hook.
Chael, I agree with you on the loss of focus, that is a very interesting point to bring up. But id like to share my perspective, if you happen to watch the fight again, look at the lead hand battle between them. Pereira and Hill bump gloves in a rhythm, and Pereira lands great shots off of breaking that rhythm . Mainly left jabs to the body to condition Hill to parry low with his lead. When they go back into the fight after the crotch kick, Alex advances, and they continue the hand fighting, bumping lead hands in that rhythm. Pereira is again the one to break that rhythm by feinting a straight right, all while he is holding Hills right glove with that right arm of Hill fully extended. He sort of drops/parries Hills right hand to slip the left hook right over top. I think Pereira is levels above in his game plan, and a lot of that also contributed to Hills loss of focus. From what I have seen, Alex Pereira showed there are levels to his standup that most fighters don't see the full extent of. I may be overthinking things, but I think Alex is very intentional, and it seems to get better with every fight. This is ofc best put on display when Pereira's opponent obliges in keeping the fight on the feet. the Strickland fight was extremely similar to this.
This man is so quick with so much power I don’t think hill on his best day gets an arm raised
Chael Sonnen's entire point, at the same moment that Pereira knocked him out I said that he got distracted, changed the rhythm a little and relaxed, if Herb Dean Pereira had not intervened at that moment he would not have knocked him out at that same moment and place in the octagon, Pereira surely wouldn't have even thrown that punch.
It's like Herb Dean says: "Protect yourself at all times, unless you lose focus."
If not for the titles, you’d have no idea wtf Uncle Chael is trying to say until halfway through the video
Idk, it feels like Alex is miles ahead skillwise
Pereira was beating Hill no matter what 🤣
Facts
Can someone breakdown the hand fighting going on in this fight, there was a ton of it, Poatans left hand vs hills right! 🤔
Lmao, a whole video trying to explain why his pick for J Hill was wrong. Here is another idea, Alex is a phenom kickboxer who knocks everyone out and J hill tried to kick box with him.
Magic!!!!!!
incorreto. The touch gloves just after, and both threw punchs... The difference was hill didnt conected. please dont try to find excuses, it was all Poatan credit and The only reason it happened is because the power of his punches are from another world lol
Yep that’s another reason why the ref normally stops the fight. Jamahal lost focus at the exact wrong time and Alex capitalized on the mistake. Its a mistake hill will never make again
Stop with the excuses, they touched gloves, the fight was back on
they touched gloves bro, no excuses, if Jamal lost focus its only his fault, and after touching the gloves Jamal landed a shot before Poatan
did hill trow a punch first at the restart ?
It's interesting because I feel the same thing happened to Charles in his fight. He had good position, then got warned about a near headbutt, he acknowledged the ref. Seconds later he was reversed
I always understood good footwork meaning being positioned correctly in an advantageous position
Did Chael end the video by encouraging us to try his red hot stove demonstration?
Bro hill looked terrified at the face off 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Bro funny as hell
If u watch the fight closely in first 2 mins whenever Hill strikes any combination towards Alex his right dropped on every strike and if I saw it Alex also saw it too so the left hook was always coming
I saw the exact same thing. He eased up against a fighter that you can’t ease up with for a second. It probably wouldn’t have made a difference in the fight but it made a difference in that moment
Very good read. He stepped just to get one step closer and to the left. Set up they uppercut by slight movement
Great video
There were 4 glove touches between Herb retreating and the KO blow
and pretty much simultaneous lefts at KO time
Reach advantage for sure is an advantage. At 6’0 with long arms and long legs. I only struggle against those as tall/long if not, taller/longer. There’s a reason why the guys that hold the belt are usually the taller/longer strikers. And those guys only struggle against taller/longer fighters. Examples? Gustafson v Jones, Reyes v Jones, Adesanya v Pereira and you can even throw Santos v Jones in there. For someone like O’Malley to get dethroned. He’d have to run into a fellow 5’10’-6’1 guy to expose some holes.
I saw what Alex did, boxing and kickboxing fans are probably well aware of the tactic he used. He used Herb to close the distance by waiving off the break, then he used Herb to seal of the right side (Hill's left side) then he used the gate to close the rear exit, next he stepped on Hill's foot with his whole body angled outside of his. Next, he sent Hill to the shadow realm. This is why in a boxing matches when there is a break you see the boxer who is not the aggressor put the ref in between him and the opposing fighter and walk back to the center of the ring.
Low iq comment
When the ref stepped in alex never went forward
After they touched gloves hill backed up immediately
Only after that alex followed him
