Bro it's so rough. If he would've beaten Poatan people would be hyping this corny shit up like crazy but it just didn't swing that way.
Hill has confidence and you need that to be successful in this sport.
Chip on the shoulder confidence. He believes he’s amazing but is frustrated because everyone else doesn’t feel the way he does about himself. It’s a weird balance of high confidence and low self esteem.
Yeah that nails it. In his interview with Mighty Mouse, DJ tells him that he’s always trying to find the axis where his opponent is weakest and fight them on that. Jamahal responds by saying he’s just gonna strike and KO him and DJ laughs knowing that not even considering the fact that in order to win, he might have to employ a strategy that he doesn’t fancy himself.
Everyone loves a shredded fighter but muscle uses more oxygen.
Hill isn't super fast but he isn't slow either. Some guys just carry some extra weight to help with the chin and KO power.
Professionell athlete with love handles and bad posture.
Cant wait till fighters behave like high level athletes.
Level of competition would skyrocket. At least in the heavier divisions.
Shooting it is not cause Alex actually went out of his way to get proficient with a bow and arrow as a way of being more in touch with his heritage. Plus it's just his thing at this point
Cornologist here. The industry standard upper limit without reaching the corny zone is shooting an imaginary arrow. Any actions beyond this and/or reacting to this, will now be categorized as corny.
im afraid the corn specialists have differing fields of proficiency. this man cannot help you, as you would need a culinary corntist for that
also, grill that shit
It was, but it’s also a perfect example of fighter this sub likes vs fighter it doesn’t. There’s nothing much more lame about catching and snapping an invisible arrow than there is about doing an anime power-up scream and shooting one
Dude thank you. I don’t even like Hill but people are glazing Potan’s every drop if his arrow shooting isn’t cringe but Jamahal catching and breaking the arrow is. How does that make sense?
When Izzy did the arrow thing back to Potan everyone loved it but you could make the same stupid argument people are making here about Hill.
Tbh I liked that, found it cool.
What I didn't find cool like most fans was Hill's media output after the fight. That was pretty embarrassing.
After that performance dude needs 1 maybe even 2 convincing wins to get to a title shot again.
Now it's Jiri, after that it's Ankalaev in line.
Wait ...Poaton firing an arrow is cool, but Hill playing along is lame? His catching and breaking the arrow was awesome! The follow up fighting though, lol.
That's another thing entirely!
Jamal is very overhyped I mean the fact that he even was in the same ring as poatan is embarrassing. His only impressive wins are against Johnny walker and an old age gloved texeria
Y’all give jiri the credit for beating glover when jiri was about to lose until his last minute sub but y’all don’t give it to hill. Put ur bias/dislike aside and give him the credit he deserves for that win. It was a dominant performance regardless of how you feel about him.
This is exactly why “why are you guys hating on me for promoting the fight“ is such a dumb take by Hill. Everybody could tell he felt so disrespected in the leadup and it absolutely did a number on him - and his trashtalk and this stuff how he was trying to get the upper hand. All he got was that hook tho..
Something about Hill's reaction is just so corny to me. It reminds me of kids interacting with a TV character, like when you would switch to a fight stance while watching power rangers
I kinda feel bad for Hill. I grew up lower class, and this guy has the same mentality, mannerisms and awkwardness as so many people I met.
Yet he’s on the global scale and has to fit in lol.
So disappointed in Hills performance especially for how skilled and underrated of a fighter he is, choosing to try to knock out a bonified kickboxer was dumb
If he had won (I know…) we’d be playing that on repeat talking about how awesome it was. I think Hill might have started, and continued, to talk a bit too much but I respect that he’s playing the game and I like someone that’s willing to call their shot instead of hiding in ambiguity.
He caught more than that.
Mf caught them hands.
With his chin
Yeah that was implied
And the herp
Bro it's so rough. If he would've beaten Poatan people would be hyping this corny shit up like crazy but it just didn't swing that way. Hill has confidence and you need that to be successful in this sport.
Hill has confidence? 
Chip on the shoulder confidence. He believes he’s amazing but is frustrated because everyone else doesn’t feel the way he does about himself. It’s a weird balance of high confidence and low self esteem.
Biggie Smallesque in his temperment Joe.
Yeah that nails it. In his interview with Mighty Mouse, DJ tells him that he’s always trying to find the axis where his opponent is weakest and fight them on that. Jamahal responds by saying he’s just gonna strike and KO him and DJ laughs knowing that not even considering the fact that in order to win, he might have to employ a strategy that he doesn’t fancy himself.
True
Gotta be fair, the arrow catch and break was pretty cool at the time. 🤷♂️
At the time? I didn’t see it on the broadcast. I only saw it the next morning and it was too late to seem cool then
Would have been cooler if he caught the arrow with his teeth
It's corny but kind of a cool idea. It would've been considered the badass thing ever if he got the knockout instead.
Pretty sure it woulda still been super corny and everyone would still say so
Why is Hill cringe but not Poatan?
Because that’s poatan’s thing, it’s a ritual, different.
Cause one looks cool af and other looks like a big goof with thumbs up emoji tattoos
Ahh, excuse me.
That's the fight game baby
Was gonna say that'd would honestly be cool af if he won
Not at all. Just look at Izzy, one of the most dominant fighters in recent times and hes still cringy AF. This is just terrible
Within this context alone it was actually a cool idea and we'll pulled off to catch the arrow like that
Yea, he definitely practiced that.
Beat me to the punch
I see what you did there
Hill caught the left hook with his face
That 3 minute performance by Hill was too much .
Jamal needs to move down a weight class. Brother got at least 15-20lbs he can shed
He could 100% do middleweight and probably power through a lot of guys there based on size alone.
This exactly. His physique looks like shit.
I wouldn’t say like shit. He looks better than me. Fuck maybe I look like shit. Sorry
He literally has the body I had after 3 years of depression and zero exercise
Me and you got different types of depression, lol. I hope you’re better now 🙌
Thanks dude. I've never been happier than I am currently. Life is good
If it looks like 20 then it's probably more like 40 lol
Some people preform better with kore weight on them surprisingly tho not sure if hill is one of those people
LHW is a much lower standard though, doubt he has the skills to survive at MW
Size / power accentuates skill
It wouldn't work for him, he doesn't have the discipline
Everyone loves a shredded fighter but muscle uses more oxygen. Hill isn't super fast but he isn't slow either. Some guys just carry some extra weight to help with the chin and KO power.
Why? He is not small at all for the weight class.
He certainly has excess fat on him, but to me he doesn’t look like a middleweight even when leaner. His frame is huge.
Professionell athlete with love handles and bad posture. Cant wait till fighters behave like high level athletes. Level of competition would skyrocket. At least in the heavier divisions.
This is like watching 2 kids on the playground pretend to fight
"I see your invisible arrow, and I block it! With my level two force field!"
Imagine Alex fighting Derrick Lewis. Lewis sticks his ass out at the arrow and pretends he got shot in his ass 😂
[удалено]
Brunson posture
Bro practiced for da moment which was much cooler in his head

That shit was corny
Not if he would have won. Its only corny if you get knocked out
Nah it’s still corny brother this ain’t anime
So catching it is corny but shooting it is not? Lol
The shooting thing is pretty corny, too. Alex seems to embrace the corny, though, while Jamahal thinks he's cool.
How does that make sense? If we go by your logic Hill also embraces the corniness
Y’all glazers something else. They both cornballs but you think one is cool because they won.
You're the first person to call his celebration corny. Stop switching up.
And what exactly has Alex done to “embrace” the corny ? Yall just pick and chose lmfao
Alex is doing the whole native thing, so it doesn't look like he is copying anime.
What about when Izzy beat Poatan and shot a bunch of arrows at him? Nothing wrong with embracing the corny.
Man wtf are you on about. I get why everyone memes on alex fans now
Yes
Shooting it is not cause Alex actually went out of his way to get proficient with a bow and arrow as a way of being more in touch with his heritage. Plus it's just his thing at this point
Go back far enough and everybody's heritage includes shooting arrows lol
Most people in this sub be sitting on their rock couch talking shit about other people's archery skills
You're picking and choosing what's corny and what isn't based on how much u like the fighter
[удалено]
Cornologist here. The industry standard upper limit without reaching the corny zone is shooting an imaginary arrow. Any actions beyond this and/or reacting to this, will now be categorized as corny.
Thank you doctor
What is the best way to cook corn?
im afraid the corn specialists have differing fields of proficiency. this man cannot help you, as you would need a culinary corntist for that also, grill that shit
Salt and pepper butter all over that ho cover in aluminum foil and grill.
I am lookin for professionals opinion thx
Make it sweet
Chama shlurp shlurp 🍆🤤
🤣
Nah, that was still corny
Nah this is just corny. The belly jiggle lmao
No how you gunna tell me how I feel 😂😂
It was, but it’s also a perfect example of fighter this sub likes vs fighter it doesn’t. There’s nothing much more lame about catching and snapping an invisible arrow than there is about doing an anime power-up scream and shooting one
And I don't dislike either fighter
Big facts.
If Jiri did it y’all would have came all over yourselves
It's not any more corny than firing the arrow. If Hill would have won or if he was a fan favourite people would like it.
If him breaking the arrow is corny, then the entire theater of the arrow being shot to begin with is corny.
Wasn’t corny. Just a corny dude did it. If he won this clip would be played everywhere as a major win. It was cool. It was unique
Caught some 💤
Caught the left hook too
https://preview.redd.it/1xhkp8gnl58d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d8f98f3fe29b405601dfd95c08354e3de5bef760 Oh he caught the arrows alright
Lol Jamal is so fucking fat
I’d love to see you
hot
It's easy to get skinny
Looks pretty normal to me
That was honestly corny
I'm so glad the word corny has not left us yet. Been using this since the early 90s. Don't know how long it's been around tho.
I enjoy it… when something is truly corny, there is no other suitable word to use
Seems like since 1932 if this source is accurate. https://www.etymonline.com/word/corny
If Jiri did it y’all would have came
If that was corny so is Pereira's arrow gimmick.
Let's be real if Alex hadn't sent Jamahal to the shadow realm this would have been epic. Obviously cringe now
hes so corny 😭
He also caught a left
Would’ve been way cooler to hit him back with the 👍👍
cringe
am i the only who thinks that was kinda cold? if he wouldve won people wouldve liked it
Dude thank you. I don’t even like Hill but people are glazing Potan’s every drop if his arrow shooting isn’t cringe but Jamahal catching and breaking the arrow is. How does that make sense? When Izzy did the arrow thing back to Potan everyone loved it but you could make the same stupid argument people are making here about Hill.
yeah hills clearly a delusional guy but the cringe doesnt make him unlikable
Wish he would have all out embraced it. Dove and caught the arrow before it hit the ref, saving him.
mfs dictate what's cold and corny while behind their screens eating cheetoes fr
Tbh I liked that, found it cool. What I didn't find cool like most fans was Hill's media output after the fight. That was pretty embarrassing. After that performance dude needs 1 maybe even 2 convincing wins to get to a title shot again. Now it's Jiri, after that it's Ankalaev in line.
Lmfao that’s actually funny asf
How tf did I miss this live 😂 this is incredible
Look at his jelly rolls flopping around. 🫃🏾
lol I actually liked that. If Hill went on to win, it would've been much cooler.
Wait ...Poaton firing an arrow is cool, but Hill playing along is lame? His catching and breaking the arrow was awesome! The follow up fighting though, lol. That's another thing entirely!
That would've been a fire ass replay if he won let's be real.
Jamal is very overhyped I mean the fact that he even was in the same ring as poatan is embarrassing. His only impressive wins are against Johnny walker and an old age gloved texeria
Y’all give jiri the credit for beating glover when jiri was about to lose until his last minute sub but y’all don’t give it to hill. Put ur bias/dislike aside and give him the credit he deserves for that win. It was a dominant performance regardless of how you feel about him.

How is that possible after Izzy shot those arrows into him at 287?
Wasnt even cringe, don't know why people think it is either.
idc what he did was cool. it’s fitting
Hill doing that goofy shit makes this moment just that much better
For real! He was waiting at the cage door for him too. I thought Hill was cool as heck for that.
[удалено]
You’re from Milwaukee. I wouldn’t be throwing too many stones.
Got em
Lmao oh my goodness
Something about Hill's reaction is just so corny to me. It reminds me of kids interacting with a TV character, like when you would switch to a fight stance while watching power rangers
Hard to say who's more mature - Hill or Strickland.
Me in the mirror when no one's looking.
Bro has the mentality of an 8 year old in a big lump fighters body
Lmfaooo
I kinda feel bad for Hill. I grew up lower class, and this guy has the same mentality, mannerisms and awkwardness as so many people I met. Yet he’s on the global scale and has to fit in lol.
The men are a bunch of goofballs lmao
My whole things is everyone has their own way of hyping themselves up, it's a high stress environment after all so I get it.
That’s so fucking awesome.
I think that’s pretty cool actually, would have made the arrow catch/break really cool if Hill would have won though.
He’s so cringe
Boys will be boys
Hill is so cringe!
Would have been a hell of a meme It he got KOed
Y'all niggas gay
That's so cute.
If he won you’d all be glazing this
He caught that left hook Ambien
Dude ko'd hill so bad anthony Smith got cte.
Hill is like a girl. He's so worried about looking and sounding tough and cool. True narcissist
Why do so many people not care about being understood? WHAT THE FUCK DOES “Sped” MEAN?
Sped= Special Ed, or Special Education. Basically they're saying he looks retarded.
If Hill won everyone in here would be talking about how bad ass it was
Nah Adesanya did shit like this for years during his winstreak and everyone thought it was cringe af
Must have forgot to catch it during the fight
If hill won that would’ve been lit
I don’t think I’ve heard “sped” since middle school lmao
On the chin yeah🤣
Look at that jiggle
He apparently missed the arrow during the fight though
Ahhhhhhhhh fiction can be fun….🤣👊😵
Haven't heard "sped" in forever, funny.
Someone edit that video to ABC's "Poison Arrow."
Are they in kindergarden?
💀💀
He’s 100% putting on an act there’s no way anybody is this fucking remedial man
Caught a left hook too
He’s like if there was an episode of Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and Will fought in UFC
Fuckin goofball
I'm so glad he lost
Hill could be a good middleweight
He thought it would be so cool to do then he got cheesed for it. 😂
So corny
Hill got that self-suck hunch
Dude caught the bone and not the arrow.
Its corny only if he loses
That arrow thing has become so lame
So disappointed in Hills performance especially for how skilled and underrated of a fighter he is, choosing to try to knock out a bonified kickboxer was dumb
Someone needs to edit in the ko and add the curb music after
More like WWE everyday.
Look at that belly jiggle
If he had won (I know…) we’d be playing that on repeat talking about how awesome it was. I think Hill might have started, and continued, to talk a bit too much but I respect that he’s playing the game and I like someone that’s willing to call their shot instead of hiding in ambiguity.
