Jamahal Hill Will Fight At UFC 303
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports

Jamahal Hill, 32, (12-2) is wasting no time in getting back into the octagon again. The former light heavyweight champion will be returning for UFC 303 on June 29th against Khalil Roundtree Jr. 34, (13-5) in Las Vegas at the T-Mobile Arena.

Hill was coming off a 14-month layoff because of a torn Achilles, which forced him to relinquish the 205-pound championship last July. Hill was knocked out in the first round against Alex Pereira in their title fight last weekend in the first round.

Roundtree is on a five fight win streak and four of his wins are from KO’s. He’s currently the 8th rank light heavyweight in the world and Hill is currently ranked 3rd.
