UFC: "Hill will fight in Baku for a brilliant victory over Rountree"

"Jamahal Hill plans to return to the championship race and will try to achieve a brilliant victory in the fight with Khalil Rountree for this purpose."

İdman.biz reports that the official UFC website wrote this on the eve of the tournament to be held in Baku on June 21.

The main fight of the tournament will be between Americans Jamahal Hill and Khalil Rountree.

Hill has 12 wins and 3 losses: "Jamahal Hill, the former UFC light heavyweight champion, plans to return to the octagon as soon as possible to hold his second fight in 2025. The American is the first participant of the "Dana White"s Contender Series" project to become a UFC champion. Hill defeated Thiago Santos, Johnny Walker and Jimmy Crute on the way to the title."

In turn, Rountree (14 wins, 6 losses) will enter the octagon for the first time after his spectacular title fight with Alex Pereira at UFC 307 last October: "Khalil is a fighter known for his effective strikes, who has won 9 of his victories by knockout and has brilliant victories over Carlos Dakas, Karl Roberson and Modestas Bukauskas. His next great success may lead to Hill taking his place in the top "five" and returning to the title claim."
