UFC star Tommy McMillen rushed to hospital after suspected overdose

UFC featherweight Tommy McMillen was taken to hospital on Sunday after police found him unresponsive in a nightclub in Scottsdale, Arizona. His trainer told TMZ that the fighter was doing well and had attended a workout on Wednesday.


A Scottsdale Police Department spokesperson told TMZ that officers found McMillen in a bathroom at Cake, a nightclub in the city’s Old Town district. Police said officers moved him out of the bathroom and administered Narcan after seeing a white powder on the floor nearby.


McMillen was in stable condition when he arrived at the hospital, according to TMZ. The report did not establish what caused him to lose consciousness or identify the substance officers saw.


The 28-year-old, who fights out of Glendale, Arizona, turned professional in 2019 and has won all 12 of his fights. He earned a UFC contract with a split-decision win on Dana White’s Contender Series and made his UFC debut earlier this year. In September, he defeated Marwan Rahiki by unanimous decision.


TMZ said it had contacted the UFC for comment and had yet to receive a response.
