News BREAKING: Jamahal Hill injured (ruptured achilles), relinquishes LHW title

At this point we are gonna have Johnny Walker vs Volkan Oezdemir vacant belt 2024
Honestly I wouldn't even be surprised by this point, they even had Anthony Smith of all people as the back up for the last title fight. The division is in shambles right now.
I guess they'll do Jiri against the Jan/Pereira winner for the vacant title, the only thing that could fuck that up is if it ends in a draw lol.

There's Ankalaev too, but the UFC don't seem too keen on putting him in another title fight.
 
Damn ruptured achilles is no joke.

What was this dumbass doing playing basketball?
 
Fuck I hate this news. Firstly, I wish Hill a speedy and healthy recovery. I feel he was criminally underrated on here and was looking forward to him fighting Jiri. LHW is in a state of disarray, although I will be tuning into the Jan vs Alex fight with a much higher level of bated breath and anticipation as the winner most likely fights Jiri for the belt (assuming Jiri’s shoulder has been healing well).
 
He should remove himself out of the USADA testing pool so he can take HGH to really fortify that tendon.

I would 100% do this.. and I dont think HGH stays in your system as long as other anabolic steroids?
 
Damn ruptured achilles is no joke.

Reminds me of Aaron Boone. The Yankees player who hit a walkoff homerun and signed a massive contract from it. Only to blow his leg up playing basketball during the off season for fun and void his contract.
 
The division is a really fucking mess.

I wish Hill a speed recovery ans hopefully he fights Jiri im the future, as for the belt let Ankalaev fight somebody for it.
 
I agree but with the Abu Dhabi card right around the corner they may be more likely to do it.
I wanted to be here before ”the belt can’t be vacant for so long” so it needs to be Ank vs. some unranked guy or Alex vs. Jan winner with a quick turnaround an Abu Dhabi…

Jiri vs Ank in Abudahbi for the title October
Winner of Jan vs Alex will step up for the next title line
But I was late. It was already here. Lol
 
Thought it was April Fools' for a second! :eek: Saw his IG and yeah he's real out of shape... must be bad. First Jiří now Jamahal... LHW is cursed! CURSED I TELLS YOU! :eek:

Hill being defeated by a rubber basketball does not give me confidence for his future as 205 Champ. At UFC 291 Pereira vs. Błachowicz should be turned into a 5-round main event for the vacant belt and that BMF crap can be a 5-round co-main. Switch 'em around. :eek:
 
I agree but with the Abu Dhabi card right around the corner they may be more likely to do it.
You're right. There's nothing publicly booked for that card yet which is probably Dana waiting to do a big reveal soon and Ankalaev is a big star there so maybe they do him against Jiri to spice up that card.
