Jamahal Hill is coming off a recent loss to Paul Craig at UFC 263. ‘The Bearjew’ finished him with brutal elbows while he was stuck in a triangle hold. ‘Sweet Dreams’ dislocated his elbow during the fight. It has now been fixed, allowing him to resume training.
Like Jamahal Hill, Jimmy Crute is also coming off a loss against his last opponent. At UFC 261, Crute, who fought Anthony Smith, suffered a calf kick in the opening round. The kick showed its immediate effects as Crute’s left leg completely gave out. In desperation mode ‘The Brute’ landed a takedown, buying some time to recover. Unfortunately, before the second round could start, the ringside doctor stopped the fight as Jimmy Crute’s left leg was compromised.
