Discussing the pay-per-view headliner Alex Pereira vs. Jamahal Hill, Nickal said:
"It's gonna be a great fight. Honestly, dude, Jamahal [Hill] is tough. He's kind of a dog, bro. I feel like people are overlooking him. I know [Alex] Pereira is really good. So I'm not saying that he's gonna beat Pereira for sure but I do feel like he's being overlooked. Because I think everybody's kind of being like alright, Pereira is going to smash him but I don't know."
"I don't think so... If he [Hill] could just make it like a frickin fight. Clinch him up and just make it not a kickboxing fight. He's [Hill's] got big power, dude. Knocks guys out a lot.... My prediction is submission heel hook Nah, I'm just kidding [laughs]... If I had to make a prediction on this fight I would say, this is tough, but I'm gonna say under two and a half rounds."
Touching on the BMF title bout between Max Holloway and Justin Gaethje, Nickal succinctly stated:
"Oh, Gaethje's gonna win that fight. Yeah, for sure."
In regards to Kayla Harrison vs. Holly Holm, Nickal also kept his assessment brief when he quipped:
"I mean, yeah, Kayla's gonna win but Holly Holm's not bad."
