Quick read
In an interview published August 11, 2026, former UFC light heavyweight champion Jamahal Hill confirmed he is moving up to the heavyweight division later this year and specifically called for a fight with undefeated prospect Josh Hokit. Hill said he wants to “dive right in the deep end” at heavyweight and identified Hokit as the opponent he wants more than any other. He also noted that he has recently been cleared to resume full training, including sparring and grappling, after time off due to injury, making this callout a key marker in his comeback plans.
