McMillen Ready For Short Notice Call After Hospitalization

UFC featherweight Tommy McMillen broke his silence Thursday after a reported hospitalization in Scottsdale, posting on social media that he is ready for a short-notice call.

TMZ reported earlier this week that the 28-year-old prospect was taken to a hospital Sunday after officers responded to a nightclub. McMillen was reportedly found on the ground with a white, powdery substance around him, according to the outlet. Officers administered Narcan, an opioid antagonist.

McMillen's Coach Says He's Back Training

McMillen's coach Tim Welch posted on social media that the undefeated fighter is completely OK and had returned to training, MMA Fighting reports. McMillen echoed that message with his own post Thursday.

The Contender Series alum trains alongside former bantamweight champion Sean O'Malley and has won all three of his UFC appearances since earning a contract in 2025. He stands 12-0 as a pro.

McMillen earned his second Fight of the Night bonus in September with a unanimous decision over Marwan Rahiki at Noche UFC 4. He has collected bonuses in each of his promotional outings.
