Media Jamahal Hill tired of waiting for Jiri Prochazka: 'It's the next man up now'

[KazDibiase]

This past Monday marked the one-year anniversary of Prochazka’s title win over Teixeira at UFC 275. Prochazka (29-3-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC) ended up vacating his belt after badly injuring his shoulder and is yet to give an exact timetable for his return.

One thing’s for certain: Hill is growing tired of waiting.

“Man, I heard the same thing y’all heard,” Hill told The Schmo. “‘It’s summer time,’ but still where you at, though? Where you at, though? I mean, I haven’t heard anything. I’ve been waiting for the call. I’ve been ready to go. At this point, I don’t care. It’s the next man up now. Whoever peaks their head out first, whoever separates themselves from the pack, whoever solidifies themselves as No. 1 contender, whoever they send. It is what it is, bro. Send whoever, just give me a name. I don’t care who it is.”

Hill expects to return in fall and says even that would be too long of a wait. In Prochazka’s one-year anniversary reflection post, he hinted that he will be ready to go in a few months.





“I don’t, not at this point,” Hill said of his return. “Bro, I don’t. Hopefully it’s somewhere in September or October. I really, really, really wouldn’t want to wait until those times, which now I really don’t have much of a choice. I really don’t want to wait past that. I wanted to fight at least two more times this year as champion. It’s not my timetable. I’m working off other people’s schedule right now, but I’m ready to go. I’m ready to fight.

[Kryptt]

Either or I'm good with. Rather he defend sooner as well as long as Jiri still get's his shot at whomever.

You think Jan Vs Alex is boring???

 

[ultra321]

there needs to be a mandatory Schmuck tag so we can know and avoid his interviews...

 

[pick999]

Jiri should of never got the shot in 1st place

I think so. its prolly gonna to be a 25 of hugging. dont forget that Jan is partly responsible for one the most boring title fight in the history of ufc with Ankalaev

 

[IneedSometop]

Makes sense a man needs to eat. He should be fighting someone by the fall even if it’s not Jiri. Just as long as Jiri gets an immediate TS when he comes back it’s all good

 

[Pierced7681]

Where’s Ankalaev at? Wtf is he doing pissing his career down the toilet

 

[vinnie245]

He wants to fight around September which matches up perfectly with Izzy in Sydney, DDP aint getting past Rob lets be honest.

<Lmaoo><45>

Fuck it, let's see what Volkanovski has for Hill.

Coming off a KO loss at MW, Alex then gets an immediate title shot in a division he has never competed in?

That would be utterly ridiculous lol

 

[Mmmmmmma1234]

Ankaleav needs to jump on this. Is he still crying over ye draw?

 

[KazDibiase]

My bad

 

[ultra321]

My bad

if he would act like a professional instead of a junior high school play bad guy he'd be bearable.... if he wants the glasses and the hair cut to be his gimmick fine but he acts like a strange asshole who you wanna keep your kids away from...

 

[chiefwiggum]

Yeah let's make the LHW title even more worthless lol

him not fighting makes the title worthless and waiting for the guy who relinquished it.

there is no point of hill having the belt

Are you dissing the schmo hes such a cool guy why hate?

 

[blaseblase]

He shouldn't have even gotten the title shot in the first place. Now you want to give it to another guy who has never even fought in the division before? Clown world.
