The UFC on Saturday calls upon Top 10 light heavyweights when Jamahal Hill toes the line against Khalil Rountree in the five-round main event. Meanwhile, Rafael Fiziev sets his sights on Ignacio Bahamondes in the three-round lightweight co-headliner.
Hill, 34, enters the cage in a bit of a tailspin, as the former 205-pound titleholder has suffered back-to-back defeats for the first time in his career. He last suited up at UFC 311, where he succumbed to punches from Jiri Prochazka in the third round of their Jan. 18 encounter. On the other side of the equation, Rountree has racked up five wins across his past six outings. However, he finds himself on the rebound following a fourth-round technical knockout loss to then-champion Alex Pereira at UFC 307 in October.
Further down the main card—which kicks off at 3 p.m. ET/12 p.m. PT on ESPN+ and ABC—for UFC Baku, Curtis Blaydes meets Rizvan Kuniev in a heavyweight showcase, Tofiq Musayev faces Myktybek Orolbai in a 165-pound catchweight feature, Nazim Sadykhov tackles Nikolas Motta in a lightweight attraction and Muhammad Naimov squares off with Bogdan Grad in a featherweight appetizer. A welterweight clash pitting Oban Elliott against Seok Hyeon Ko anchors the prelims, which air on ESPN2 and stream to ESPN+ at 12 p.m. ET/9 a.m. PT.
