Jamahal Hil is suffering terribly from COVID-19 complications, leading to the postponement of his fight with Paul Craig at UFC Vegas 22.
Hill took to social media to address his scrapped fight with Craig. Hill expressed the severity of his symptoms and took aim at Craig for not elaborating on why Hill pulled out.
“The fight has been postponed, it’s not cancelled,” Hill said (h/t MMA Fighting). “I haven’t pulled out of anything. I specifically called and asked them to make sure they kept the same match intact.
“I’m having some complications from COVID. I contracted COVID a little over a week ago and the shit ain’t been going fucking good for me," he explained. "I started out with a fever, I’ve been dealing with all type of symptoms ever since then including chest tightness, chest congestion, my breathing is off and as recent as yesterday, I coughed up blood. I spit some mucus out and there was blood inside of it. So fuck what anybody talking about. My health is in question. When my health is in question, that’s going to get my undivided attention.”
