Hominick has fought at both Featherweight and Lightweight during his professional career. He has appeared in many organizations including the UFC, Affliction, TKO, and WEC.

Hominick was scheduled to face Yves Jabouin on January 10, 2010 at WEC 46,[3] but Jabouin was forced off the card with an injury.[4] Hominick instead faced WEC newcomer Bryan Caraway, winning by submission in the first round.[5]

The fight eventually took place on June 20, 2010 at WEC 49.[6] Hominick won via TKO in the second round. They both won a Sherdog award for best round of 2010.

Hominick faced Leonard Garcia on September 30, 2010 at WEC 51.[7] He won the fight via split decision.

Return to Ultimate Fighting Championship

On October 28, 2010, World Extreme Cagefighting merged with the Ultimate Fighting Championship. As part of the merger, all WEC fighters were transferred to the UFC.[8]

Hominick faced former training partner, George Roop on January 22, 2011 at UFC Fight Night 23 in a top contender bout.[9] Hominick stopped Roop via punches in the first round.[10]

Hominick faced UFC Featherweight Champion José Aldo on April 30, 2011 at UFC 129, where he lost via unanimous decision in a bout that earned Fight of the Night honors.[11]
