UFC 311 social media reactions: Jiri Prochazka's chaotic finish of Jamahal Hill
Jiri Prochazka got the crucial rebound performance he needed Saturday at UFC 311 against fellow former champion Jamahal Hill.
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.
Check below for the top X (formerly Twitter) reactions to Prochazka beating Hill at UFC 311.

Very weird to hear boos in L.A. while Kendrick’s “Not Like Us” blasts in the arena. But the crowd isn’t feeling Jamahal Hill. #UFC311

Man…that was a fun first round. Prochazka’s head movement is weird but effective. Hill can’t time him.
