UFC light heavyweight contender Jamahal Hill has voiced his stance on the current Dana White drama circulating throughout the mixed martial arts (MMA) community. Recently, a video went viral showing the UFC boss at a nightclub in Cabo San Lucas on New Year’s Eve. In the video, White and his wife are arguing, before she strikes him in the face. White returned with a strike of his own before they separated.
Since, both White and his wife have released statements, apologizing to one another and admitting that this is the first time in their relationship that they have ever struck at one another. Eyewitnesses claim that both were heavily intoxicated at the time of the altercation, and White himself notes that he doesn’t remember many details about what happened either.
Jamahal Hill Weighs In On Dana White Controversy
Jamahal Hill, who is slated to challenge Glover Teixiera for the vacant light heavyweight title at UFC 283, has voiced his opinion on the matter. Hill believes that White’s wife should also bear some responsibility for what happened, as White himself seems to be taking the bulk of the backlash.
Hill noted that, if you don’t want to get hit, don’t hit others. He also noted that, given White and his wife have already worked things out amongst themselves, people should really stay out of their business.
They worked things out between them about the relationship so get out they business like y’all mfs perfect

Hill clarified his stance by noting, he’s not condoning assaulting women. Instead he views it as hypocrisy that a women can assault a man without fear of any sort of immediate consequences. He took issues with fans twisting his words online.
Funny how I say keep your hands to yourself and y’all twist it to i condone beating women!! It’s crazy that women want to just be able to assault men as they plz and we expected to take it and never be human!! Y’all go head bruh!!

When one fan pointed out that his mother should have taught him not to put his hands on women, Hill responded by saying a particular situation changed her mind about that.
My mom said don’t hit girl then saw girl taking advantage of that one even attacked my brother with a belt buckle when we were kids and she changed that stance quick
