In a showdown between former champions filled with chaotic exchanges and the constant threat of a knockout, Jiri Prochazka proved on Saturday at UFC 311 that he's still the best 205-pound fighter not named Alex Pereira.

The former UFC light heavyweight champion brutally knocked out Jamahal Hill with a third-round barrage Saturday at UFC 311 inside Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California. The KO puts him back on the winning track following a second loss to UFC light heavyweight titleholder Alex Pereira in June 2024.

After suffering a second loss to light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira in July, Prochazka (31-6-1 MMA, 5-2 UFC) needed to get his hand raised. He got the job done with a TKO victory over Hill (13-2 MMA, 6-3 UFC) in the featured bout at Intuit Dome in Inglewood, Calif.
