In early 2014 Hamilton was signed to the UFC, after going 12 - 2 in regional promotions.

Hamilton then fought Ruan Potts at UFC 177: Dillashaw vs Soto. Hamilton won the fight (TKO) with vicious punches to the body at 4:17 in Round 2. Giving Hamilton his first win in the UFC.

At UFC 181: Hendricks vs. Lawler 2, Hamilton immediately charged at his opponent - Todd Duffee. This gameplan did not bode well for him, as Duffee aggressively countered and dropped Hamilton only 33 seconds into the fight.

Trying the same strategy in the Duffee fight, Hamilton charged out towards Daniel Omielańczuk, at UFC Fight Night 64: Gonzaga vs. Cro Cop 2.
