The UFC 300 saw Alex Pereira successfully defend his light-heavyweight title against Jamahal Hill in a thrilling match. This victory marked Pereira’s return to Las Vegas since winning the championship against Jiri Prochazka. Hill, the former champion, hoped for a comeback but faced a heavy defeat after Pereira floored him with a powerful left hook in the first round, followed by a dominant ground-and-pound finish.
In a separate event, Drake demonstrated his appreciation to two fighters, who netted him a windfall, by gifting them lavish Rolex watches following their victories. Additionally, there was a mention of treating community members to various offerings and the option to leave the community at any time. Pereira’s determination and quick response to an official timeout showcased his resilience and ultimately contributed to his victory.
Despite speculation about sharing the spoils with a rapper, Pereira humorously dismissed the idea in a press conference.
