Snaps arm in first career defeat
Hill lost to Paul Craig via TKO (punches) at 1:59 of Round 1 at UFC 263 on Saturday in Glendale, Arizona.
ANALYSIS
The official record says that Hill lost via TKO, but the truth of the matter is that he lost because Craig snapped his arm in half. Hill entered this fight with a massive power edge, but that doesn't help if you find yourself rolling around the mat with an ace BJJ specialist like Craig. This should have been over the second Hill suffered the arm injury, but the incompetence of referee Al Guinee allowed it to continue. There's a reason the same half-dozen, well-known refs seem to officiate all the big bouts. The is the first pro loss for the 30-year-old Hill.

Now fighting Paul Craig in June
Hill (undisclosed) has been re-booked versus Paul Craig for UFC 263 on June 12, Marcel Dorff of MMADNA reports.
ANALYSIS
Hill had to withdraw from his initially scheduled fight against Craig due to a positive COVID test, but he's now been cleared for a return to the Octagon. He'll look to maintain his undefeated pro record against an opponent who's gone 3-0-1 in his last four fights. Hill sits as a (-280) favorite as of the start of fight week, and oddsmakers don't expect this matchup to see the final bell, as the fight is (-300) to not go the distance.
