Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jamahal Hill has shared his thoughts ahead of his upcoming bout with Khalil Rountree, set to take place this Saturday, June 21, at Baku Crystal Hall.
Hill gave a bold statement to MMA Junkie ahead of the highly anticipated showdown, Idman.biz reports:
"He can hit you with some big shots, and he's never going to stop, and never going to quit and give up. There ain't no back down from him. ... I haven't seen anything from anything that makes me think, 'This dude is on your level.' Is he dangerous to anybody? It's a fight. In a fight, anybody can land a shot, and that makes them dangerous and can change the fight. He has my respect in that regard, but to think skill-for-skill he can match with me? I don't see it that.
"Right now I'm not thinking about titles," Hill said. "I'm not thinking about rankings. I'm thinking about going in and dominating Kahlil Rountree on Saturday night."
The Hill vs. Rountree bout will serve as the main event of the UFC’s upcoming Fight Night in the Azerbaijani capital.
