A new update on Jamahal Hill and his Arrest

The new details about the case have now surfaced and have started to make rounds on the internet. The details of the alleged assault were first shared by MMA Junkie. As per the report, the ex-UFC champion allegedly hit his brother on the matter of house cleaning.

Hill’s brother and his wife agreed to clean Hill’s house for $300, but later the two brothers got into some heated argument on personal matters. This further led to an aggressive exchange and that’s when Hill allegedly struck his brother James.

Moreover, ‘Sweet Dreams’ took a moment to share his response to the recently surfaced details. He took to platform X and expressed that he is waiting for the truth to come out. He said,

“I can’t wait for the truth to come out in court”!!! Make sure you’re as loud acknowledging being wrong as a lot of you are with speculating and assuming.”

The 32-year-old fighter was on a break due to his Achilles injury and is now all set to make his comeback. But looking at the current situation and legal turmoil, we feel that it might hamper his UFC plans.
