Hill should not be underestimated by any means as his fighting style might present a problem for the champion. However, Pereira is far from intimidated. If anything, he is confident that he will get the victory, and that too in spectacular fashion. The Brazillian even lived up to his character during the ceremonial weigh-in where he warned Hill, saying,

“It’s a huge opportunity. I’m very pumped for it. A few days ago, this guy said he respected me, even asked me to sign his shirt, and he did what he did yesterday. But he’s going to have his day tomorrow.”

There is an element of bad blood involved now which makes the bout even more exciting. However, considering the unpredictability of it all, we can do nothing but wait to see who will have the last laugh.
