Anthony Smith vs. Jamahal Hill Booked To Headline UFC Event In March
UFC light heavyweight contenders Anthony Smith and Jamahal Hill are scheduled to headline a yet-to-be-announced UFC Fight Night event on March 11.
MMA Island was the first to report the news of the matchup being in the works earlier this month, while MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck provided the date for the bout, although the promotion itself has yet to officially announce anything regarding the event. Smith is 3-1 in his last four fights and is coming off a second-round TKO loss to Magomed Ankalaev at UFC 277 in July. Hill meanwhile is currently riding a three-fight winning streak and will look to build on a fourth-round TKO victory over former UFC title challenger, Thiago Santos, at UFC Vegas 59 in August.
