Featherweight sensation Hyder Amil still can’t believe how far he’s come in his mixed martial arts career.
After earning his UFC contact during a 2023 appearance on Dana White’s Contender Series, ‘The Hurricane’ added a pair of highlight-reel knockouts to his resume, KO’ing Fernie Garcia in the second round of their February Fight Night clash before dispatching Jeong Yeong Lee in 65-seconds via an absolutely insane 38-punch combo on Saturday.
Amil banked an extra $50,000 performance bonus for his fast and furious finish inside The APEX.
Even after his second-straight knockout inside the Octagon, the budding Filipino-American star still finds himself waking up and wondering if this whole crazy career he’s carved out for himself is really just a dream.
