Jiri Prochazka and Jamahal Hill earned themselves a drink Saturday night.
The hard-hitting light heavyweight contenders delivered a thriller at UFC 311, trading heavy strikes for nearly 15 minutes, with Prochazka finally putting Hill down with punches in Round 3. Though they were not rewarded with the evening’s Fight of the Night—that went to the five-round duel between bantamweight champion Merab Dvalishvili and Umar Nurmagomedov—Prochazka and Hill still had plenty to celebrate after.
Sure enough, they met up at a bar later in the evening and shared a respectful post-fight moment. Watch the video below, posted to social media by Hill.
Hill also wrote a caption to accompany the video in which he praised Prochazka for the epic fight:
First of congratulations to @jirkaprochazka you made great adjustments and gave me a hell of a fight!!! I want to thank everybody that reached out with love and support I truly appreciate you all!!! My fire has never burned hotter or brighter for my future and growth!! Fighting against the elite of the elite is an honor and blessing that I don’t take for granted and yes it comes with some hard lessons but this is my journey and I’m going to set the course back right!!! Negative and hate are from those that know where they stand beneath you and want to bring you down to their level!! My head is high my heart is full and I can’t wait for my time to shine again Sweet Dreams Nation we move forward and onward!!!
There was plenty on the line for Prochazka and Hill at UFC 311, with the winner positioning themselves for another crack at regaining the light heavyweight title. Prochazka emerged victorious, but has to wait to see if he’s earned a third shot at reigning champion Alex Pereira, who is set to defend against Magomed Ankalaev in the main event of UFC 313 on March 8 in Las Vegas.
