1. Corey Hill Fight for the Troops

Tragically Corey Hill ran into some bad luck in his life.  He died at the age of 36 after suffering a sudden bout of pneumonia that necessitated a lung transplant.  The lung collapsed, Hill suffered a heart attack and died.

Hill was also the victim of what is widely considered to be one of the most gruesome injuries in the history of the UFC.  On December 10th 2008 at a Fight for the Troops event, Dale Hartt checked a kick from Hill and broke his leg.

Hill would return in just over a year, but he would never fight for the UFC again. He later tragically died in 2015. RIP.
