A tense encounter backstage at UFC 323 went viral after a short video of the moment was shared. The exchange involved Jamahal Hill and former strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk, both of whom were present at the event location. Security personnel intervened quickly, preventing the situation from escalating. The light heavyweight star recently detailed his side of the altercation.

According to reports, Hill claimed the altercation began when he entered a VIP lounge at UFC 323 and encountered Jedrzejczyk. He said she confronted him aggressively about the whereabouts of a woman she believed to be his partner, although that person was reportedly not present. He described feeling confused by her behavior, and the two were separated before any physical altercation unfolded.

Jedrzejczyk later posted on Instagram, focusing on maintaining her reputation and highlighting themes of women’s empowerment. She framed her message around personal standards without directly addressing the altercation. The post emphasized self-respect and resilience. However, Hill responded separately, asserting that the Polish native had initiated the confrontation.

All the people talking about ‘Joanna was the aggressor.’ My girl wasn’t there. She was being aggressive towards me. The whole time. Threatening me, being aggressive towards me. Not one time did I get aggressive, did I go towards her, raise my voice, anything. At that point, I’m like you’re making a scene, this shit ain’t cool. The UFC staff comes, they grab her, start moving her away and now she’s getting real loud talking.

The former light heavyweight champion also claimed the exchange began when Jedrzejczyk confronted him unexpectedly in a VIP area. He stated that he remained calm until she allegedly directed threats toward his girlfriend, who was not present at the event. Hill later shared old chat screenshots between them to show past context. He suggested this history may have contributed to Jedrzejczyk’s reaction.

There’s absolutely no problems at all but Joanna’s manager is playing this little game. A couple of years ago in New York, when the whole bus incident happened, a bunch of us were in there, Joanna was in New York, I was in New York and I shot my shot. I was shooting my shot. I was shooting my shot, I tried to smash.

Hill also discussed the involvement of Jedrzejczyk’s manager, whom he believed intensified the situation. He said the manager brought up past interactions and pushed the narrative further by reaching out to his girlfriend long after his earlier flirting moment with the Polish native. Hill added that his girlfriend supported him and clarified that she already knew the background story.

Jamahal Hill is currently on a three-fight skid, with losses to Alex Pereira, Jiri Prochazka, and, most recently, Khalil Rountree Jr., marking a challenging period in his career. The altercation with Joanna Jedrzejczyk adds another layer to this difficult stretch as both continue to present differing accounts of what occurred. With no further clarification from either side, the situation remains unresolved.

Hill has also frequently highlighted his girlfriend, Adaire Byerly, who became a central talking point during the recent altercation involving Joanna Jedrzejczyk.

She stated that she would speak further once she learned more about the situation.

Byerly herself is a well-known MMA host and a professional model, maintaining a strong presence within the combat sports community.
