Hamill (10-2, 9-2 UFC) has been asking for a Top 10 opponent, and UFC president Dana White said after his last win that he’d get one. After a series of changes, Hamill gets arguably the most important fight of his career at UFC 130 against former light heavyweight champion Quinton “Rampage” Jackson.
And thanks to five straight wins, Hamill, the only deaf fighter in the UFC, is riding high on confidence going into the May 28 fight.
“I know I’m going to break his will – I know I’m going to beat Rampage,” Hamill told host Ariel Helwani on a recent edition of “The MMA Hour.” “I’ve been training real hard and my conditioning and my skills and technique, striking and kicking are a lot better.”

Weidman, a Division I All-American wrestler at Hofstra who trains with former UFC welterweight champion Matt Serra and Ray Longo on Long Island, was confident he’d get to The Show some day, but was realistic about it.
“I was definitely a little surprised (when the UFC called),” Weidman told MMA Fighting on Tuesday, two days before his main-card fight against Alessio Sakara at UFC on Versus 3 on Thursday. “I felt like I was always ready, but I just know how it works with MMA. You usually need a couple more fights than I have, especially to get to a main card. But I’m in it, and I’m trying to make the best of the opportunity.”

UFC president Dana White made the announcement Saturday afternoon on his Twitter feed. Ortiz-Nogueira was scheduled to headline the UFC’s Fight Night 24 show in Seattle, the promotion’s debut in that city.
Instead, Davis (8-0, 4-0 UFC) will get his first taste of a main event, stepping in for Ortiz, the former light heavyweight champion. White’s announcement on Twitter said Ortiz needed stitches and was out of the bout. Ortiz confirmed the news in a Twitter post of his own Saturday afternoon, saying he needed 22 stitches and had suffered a concussion.
