Unbeaten UFC featherweight Tommy McMillen was taken to hospital on Sunday after being found unresponsive at a nightclub in Scottsdale, Arizona.

A Scottsdale Police Department spokesperson told TMZ that McMillen was transported to hospital after he was found unresponsive at Cake, a nightclub in the city's Old Town district. TMZ reported that he was in stable condition, with no apparent life-threatening complications.

McMillen's coach, Tim Welch, has since posted an update saying the fighter is "completely OK" and already back to training, MMA Fighting reported. The UFC had not responded to TMZ's request for comment.

McMillen, 28, is 12-0 as a professional and 3-0 in the UFC, all in 2026. He stopped Manolo Zecchini in the first round on his UFC debut in April. He stopped Alberto Montes in the third round in July. He then beat Marwan Rahiki by unanimous decision at Noche UFC in September.
