UFC light heavyweight champion Jamahal Hill posted a video late Thursday night announcing that he is giving up the belt. He suffered an injury that requires surgery to repair, and he didn’t want to hold up the division. “I have unfortunately suffered an injury. I’ve ruptured my Achilles (tendon),” an obviously emotional Hill said. “It’s a tough injury. It’s one that will require surgery and will require time and rehab and things for me to be out for a while.” Knowing he will sit on the sidelines for at least several months, Hill is giving up the title he won just a few short months ago.
