Mixed martial arts career

Early career

Hill began her professional MMA career in 2014. She has amassed a win over future Invicta fighter Stephanie Skinner.[3]

The Ultimate Fighter

In June 2014, it was announced that Hill was one of the fighters selected by the UFC to appear on The Ultimate Fighter: A Champion Will Be Crowned. She faced Carla Esparza in the preliminary round and lost via submission in the first round.

After TUF

Hill's first fight after The Ultimate Fighter was against Emily Kagan at the The Ultimate Fighter: A Champion Will Be Crowned Finale on December 12, 2014.[4] Tecia Torres fought at UFC 188 and defeated Hill.[5]

Hill faced Rose Namajunas at UFC 192 on October 3, 2015. She lost the fight by technical submission in the first round. She was subsequently released from the promotion.

Invicta FC

On November 17, 2015 Hill announced on her official Facebook page that she signed with Invicta FC.[6] She made her debut for the promotion at Invicta FC 15 on January 16, 2016, and successfully notched a first round TKO victory over Alida Gray.[7] Hill returned less than two months later on March 11, 2016, and knocked out former strawweight title challenger Stephanie Eggink in the second round, earning her first Performance of the Night bonus as a result of the finish.[8]

Hill will now make another quick turnaround to face undefeated strawweight champion Livia Renata Souza for the title at Invicta FC 17 on May 7, 2016.[9]
