Logan Paul and KSI launched their famous drink Prime Energy and Sports drinks in January 2022. Since its launch, the drink has gathered a lot of mixed reactions from the fans.

Logan’s interest in the fighting game has now taken on a new dimension after a recent Instagram post by Drink Prime. In anticipation of the event, Logan Paul has released a new flavor for his drink Prime and the fans are excited about the collaboration.

Paul, apart from being an influencer, is also a boxer and made his debut on February 3, 2018, against Joe Weller. He then stepped into the ring against KSI on February 24, 2018, along with his brother Jake Paul. The much-anticipated fight ended with a draw and the pair was scheduled to meet again on September 4, 2019. This time round, KSI won the fight after two judges scored the bout in his favor. But now these former contenders are business partners.

Now going back to the event that has stars of all combat promotions excited, UFC 300 will witness Alex Pereira defend his light heavyweight title for the first time in his career against ‘ Sweet Dreams’. Hill is the reason for Teixeira retiring from the sport and Pereira will certainly look to avenge his loss. But is Pereira entering the Octagon with revenge in mind?

Does Alex Pereira want to defeat Hill for a personal reason?

Glover Teixeira will be very keen on watching the UFC 300 as ‘Poatan’ takes on Hill for the light heavyweight title. Teixeira and Hill were last seen inside the Octagon at UFC 283. The pair met each other for the vacant light heavyweight title, and Hill put up a dominant show against him. ‘Sweet Dreams’ won the title but had to vacate it after suffering from an injury.

However, he will now have to take on the hard-hitting Brazilian to win back the title. It will be interesting to see whether Pereira keeps his calm going into the night. The two-division champion recently made an appearance at the ‘ The MMA Hour’ and seemed very calm during the conversation.

While speaking to Ariel Helwani, ‘Poatan’ clarified that he does not have revenge on his mind. He said, “I’m gonna fight him like if I had never fought over this stuff.” He further added, “Sometimes you can take certain things to heart, just like on the street. If a guy starts brawling with your brother, you get angry because it’s your brother. You go over there, get beat up, and you get knocked out. So, he tries to avoid bringing that type of emotion inside. He just focuses on good diets, good rest, and good training. He goes over there and performs.”
