I don’t know if its so bad or nasty. I think it’s more funny looking more than anything else. I’m not saying the situation is funny, oh hell no. But the way his leg looks is more funny than nasty.
Hill is so thin, he shouldn’t be fighting like that. He has no meat on them bones to protect himself from a checked kick. That or he needs to drink some milk. Lots of milk.

Yeah man. I mean, it was sort of a freakish accident, but you have to figure that kind of weight at 6’4" attributed to the break, or at least didn’t do anything to prevent it. I figure Corey is gonna have to put on some muscle mass and fight at a higher weight class. His height and reach can still be quite an advantage even if he fought at welterweight or something.
That picture so ridiculously bad that it looks photoshopped.
I’ll go ahead and opt out of watching the video.
Holy shit!
Looks like Stretch Armstrong or something..
Oh I agree with you. I can’t imagine him ever fighting seriously again. I was just adding to your post :)
i agree...
This would have never happened if he wasn’t so skinny, when he was training with Miletich I couldn’t believe how tiny he was. Looked like a strong wind would blow him over.
His take downs looked good but,
Once Corey would take him down he couldn’t do anything…same old song and dance for Corey.
Why he is bothering with takedowns...
…I don’t know. Use the length and fight tall. Jab, jab, jab and then start following it with a straight behind it. Then again he was standing when the leg snapped…so I guess I’m wrong that it is where he should keep it.

No kicks for Corey Hill
If he ever wants to fight again, he doesn’t need to throw kicks. He has such a tremendous reach advantage he could punish any kicks that come his way with a right and outbox anyone at range if he just focuses on that.
If he chooses never to fight again…..I would not blame him. That loss has got to be shocking.
or use more front kicks with the jabs...
Watching him fight reminds me of fighting my lil bro…I can take him down at will but then again once i get him down i can’t punch him so i just lay there like Corey does lol
the whole fight is available in UFC.com
i’d make a fanshot of it, but i dont know how to embed that video.. So there, I just wanted to tell those who want to see it..

People are opting out of watching it because the end is kind of brutal.

I’m new to the whole MMA scene but I’m gonna guess that a leg isn’t supposed to bend like that.
Go Avs! Let's get some goals!
I almost wrote, “I’m going to go out on a limb and say that a leg…” but I held back. Well, until now.
In all seriousness, I certainly hope he’s able to fully recover. And gain some weight.
Go Avs! Let's get some goals!
Yeah...
go with your gut man!

Napolean McCallum needs to hand over the title of most gruesome injury.

NHL goalie Clint Malarchuk is the undisputed champ.

Unfortunately that’s the second I’ve seen that happen in my lifetime.

Cage Rage.
What a dick for taunting him after his leg is obviously in two.
