UFC 86 preliminary Previews: Corey Hill vs. Justin Buchholz

Corey Hill (2-0, 1-0 UFC) vs. Justin Buchholz (7-2, 0-1 UFC)

Ultimate fighter alum Corey Hill makes his PPV debut against Justin Buchholz. Granted the fight isn’t live and most likely won’t be televised but hey it’s a step up from an Ultimate Fight Night.

Corey Hill was the tall (6’4) lanky lightweight from season five of the Ultimate Fighter. He was also a little crazy/intense and was extremely green to MMA. Corey may only have two fights under his belt but his unique size and athleticism makes him a difficult opponent. He also happens to be buds with the MMA Girls so good for him.

Justin Buchholz on the other hand didn’t do so well in his debut loosing to another TUF 5 alum Matt Wiman. Justin (I don’t want to write Buchholz because it reminds of the Red Sox pitcher, a pitcher who was also a look out for a robbery) hails from Alaska and this great state is celebrating its 50th anniversary of becoming a state. Only one of his fights has made it out of the first round so this fight will probably end quickly.

Pick: Corey Hill via TKO
