After he had eliminated Alexander Poppeck to earn a contract and successfully debut with a decision victory at Darko StoSic, Hill was linked to Klidson Abbreu.

The Brazilian was not finished in the UFC at that time, but that changed quickly when he shared the cage with the then light heavyweight king.

Hill took ABreu on UFC Vegas and needs less than two minutes to make an explanation in his second Octagon appearance on the Apex.

After he had dropped Abreu, Hill did not let it go and used vicious knees in the conflict to get the finish.

Among those watching was movie star Halle Berry, a famous fan of mixed martial arts. Clearly impressed, the celebrity contacted the UFC president.

Daniel Cormier surrendered the news to Hill during the interview after the fight and revealed that Berry's text of one word with regard to his performance to White simply reads 'Fire'.

Unfortunately for Hill was what was not so 'fire' was the fate that waited for that result.

'Sweet Dreams' had later thrown the victory away and fell to a NO match after he had tested positively on Marijuana.

Hill continued his indictment after sending Abreu with similar violent performances against Jimmy Crute and Johnny Walker. And his undefeated run in the UFC Culminated in a title victory on Glover Teixeira.
