He taught himself to lip-read by watching his brother’s mouth move like Pac-Man and mimicking emotions just to fit in.

Before he ever stepped foot in the UFC cage, Matt pinned a 1,200-pound cow as part of an unconventional training drill created by an Olympic gold medalist coach. No joke—cow tipping was cardio.

He once drove a 1930 Model A Ford to prom, complete with goggles and a hand crank. His date? Not impressed. She called her dad to come pick her up. (Yes, this story is in the book.)

And in 2025, after nearly five decades of living in silence, Matt finally heard his daughter’s voice for the first time—a moment that left him in tears.

These aren’t just anecdotes. They’re chapters in a life marked by grit, humor, heartbreak, and resilience. For the first time ever, Matt is sharing his full journey in his upcoming memoir, Silent Fight—and it’s packed with stories even longtime fans have never heard.

You think you know Matt Hamill? You’ve only seen the surface. This book takes you underneath—the bruises, the silence, the setbacks, and the moments that made him more than a fighter.
