After coming up short in an excellent opportunity against Quinton Jackson, Matt Hamill now has to go back to the drawing board to try to break into the exclusive club that is the UFC’s light heavyweight contenders.
The loss ended a five-fight winning streak for Hamill, but that included his disqualification win over Jon Jones.
Despite his wrestling background, Hamill came nowhere near being able to take Jackson down with his double leg.
Hamill may be subjected to the title of gatekeeper from now on, but here are some opponents that he could have the chance to get back on track against in his next fight.
