Last Saturday night at UFC 300 in Las Vegas, Alex Pereira needed just 3 minutes and 14 seconds to knock out Jamahal Hill and retain his light heavyweight title. Pereira (10-2-0) put together a surprising sequence of starts, unfazed by kicks below the belt. After the blow, the referee called for a stoppage, but as Pereira approached him, Pereira waved him off, never breaking eye contact with Hill (12-2-0).
Pereira then landed a quick left hook that sent Hill to the mat. Pereira then landed a series of punches to Hill’s face, securing his third straight UFC victory.
Zhang Weili (25-3-0) also won a title fight, retaining the women’s strawweight belt with a victory over Yang Xiaonan (18-4-0). Weili came out on top with a unanimous decision, taking the cards 49-45, 49-45, 49-45. In other bouts, Max Holloway (26-7-0) and Arman Tsarukyan (22-3-0) won at lightweight. Bo Nickal (6-0-0) won the middleweight bout.
