Jamahal Hill's fighting Glover Texeira for the UFC light heavyweight title Saturday night, but he already has an idea of who he wants to scrap with once he's the champ -- Jiri Procházka.
for the UFC light heavyweight title Saturday night ... but he's already got an idea of who he wants to scrap with once he's the champ --talked to 31-year-old Hill ahead of his UFC 283 main event fight against the legendary Brazilian fighter ... when we asked the 11-1 striker if he was bothered by people saying he doesn't deserve to fight for the strap.
"From the consensus that I've been hearing a lot of, it's I 'don't deserve the title shot.' I think even Jiri said that which is crazy as hell to me because he only had like 2 wins and he got a title shot. That's weird, know what I'm saying?" Hill asked, making his point. "Not just that, it's all love and all respect to Glover and everything like that, but at the same time, bro, if you lose your title and don't defend your title, why do you deserve a title shot? Why do you deserve an immediate rematch for a title shot? It's just funny."
