Jiří Procházka stopped Jamahal Hill by third-round TKO at UFC 311, then spoke with UFC.com.

The finishing sequence against Hill
The meeting between two former UFC light heavyweight champions developed into a striking contest with momentum changing between exchanges. Procházka scored an early knockdown, but Hill recovered and found more success with combinations and body punches in the second round.
Procházka continued to move in and out of range, creating openings with his changing rhythm. In the third round, he dropped Hill again and followed him to the canvas with punches. Referee Mike Beltran intervened at 3:01, ending the contest without the judges needing to decide the outcome.
The victory restored Procházka to the win column after his previous defeat to Alex Pereira. At that point, his UFC wins had all come inside the distance, and Pereira remained the only opponent to have beaten him in the promotion. Afterward, Procházka expressed interest in a third meeting with Pereira, making the Hill result part of his effort to return to the championship picture. A contemporaneous fight report details the exchanges and his post-fight comments.
