Stop: “Hammer” time!
Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) light heavyweight contender Matt Hamill, who cut his teeth on season three of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF), will continue his comeback tour when he fights Julian Marquez for Combate Americas inside Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, New York, on Fri., Oct. 14, 2016.
Combate Americas: “Empire Rising” airs live on beIN SPORTS En Español and UFC Fight Pass (more on that here).
Hamill, 39, is in dire need of a victory, having dropped three consecutive bouts and five of his last six. The 11-7 “Hammer” was last seen at Venator FC 3 back in May, where he was stopped by fellow UFC veteran Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou.
