How To Bet Pereira vs Hill At UFC 300
Pereira and Hill are punishing 205ers in unique ways. The American is a southpaw with heavy punches and knees, while the Brazilian possesses a "touch of death" and a deceptive, awkward style.
This fight seems destined to end inside the distance, but a stoppage could come from multiple angles. Pereira's stinging leg kicks could put Hill down, as could Hill's straight left, a punch Pereira is vulnerable to.
This is a big brawl for Hill, who's coming off an Achilles tear. If he storms out of the gates, Pereira will match his energy, and from there, fireworks will fly.
Pereira vs Hill Pick
I've got to think the UNDER hits in this fight. Hill can do five rounds, but we've only seen him go the distance in an offensive onslaught vs Glover Texeira.
Pereira mashed Jiri Prochazka in his last bout. That clash was quick and violent; UFC 300 will repeat those qualities.
I'll pick Pereira to win straight up, plus the UNDER 2.5 rounds.
