“Had One Job” Jamahal Hill was “accidentally booked” against Kamaru Usman instead of Leon Edwards at UFC 278 and fans are having a hilarious chuckle out of it

“Had One Job” Jamahal Hill was “accidentally booked” against Kamaru Usman instead of Leon Edwards at UFC 278 and fans are having a hilarious chuckle out of it

Edwards must not be happy of being shoved away from another title shot

Jamahal Hill is special. It’s not every day that a fighter wins a 4 round bout at light heavyweight via a knockout and then is shortly expected to go down 2 weight classes within 2 weeks to fight for the title. That’s exactly what the UFC wished to do with Jamahal, setting him up against Kamaru Usman in place of Leon Edwards. Well not the UFC , maybe just the graphics department.

Shortly after Hill’s brutal TKO victory over veteran Thiago Santos, the announcing team was busy promoting the next few months of stacked fight cards. Just this month, we will be fortunate enough to have two more fight cards, but something was off in the promotional picture. Fans were to notice that the oddity in the picture was that Hill, who just got done with his fight was set up against Usman, for a welterweight title in two weeks’ time.

Of course, the UFC will do anything to delay Leon Edward’s title shot. Even the graphics team can’t let him be at peace. Fans obviously were right in their part for such a major gaffe in promoting the main event of an upcoming PPV. Here are the best fan reactions to this atrocious mistake.

Like always Bully B had to be the first to notice and the loudest to announce as he gave credit to Usman for really moving up all the way to light heavyweight

Former featherweight Title contender, Megan Anderson was much more elaborate with her observation

Former UFC contender and #1 ranked Bellator LHW, Corey Anderson will never miss an opportunity to call out the UFC, even if it is for stupid gaffes

Ariel meanwhile was happy for Hill who was about to make a turnover between fights never seen in MMA before

Some fans brilliantly noticed that man who was just in the octagon 10 minutes ago, looks nothing like Leon Edwards

Others predicted a quick Leon victory at 278, considering the newfound KO power bestowed in him

MMA fans will always be united in two things, crying robberies after close fights and hating on Dana and the UFC after every fight, added bonus if they don’t do their job properly

The disrespect toward Leon is getting out of hand at this point.

You are right, my guy. That is in fact, not Leon Edwards
