Jim Miller plans to "frustrate" Bobby Green at UFC 300, lays out retirement plan

Cole Shelton - April 9, 2024

Jim Miller got his wish of fighting on UFC 300. Miller competed at UFC 100 and 200 and for the past couple of years, he has been campaigning to be on UFC 300. Originally the plan was for Miller to retire at UFC 300, but that is no longer the goal, so he says that has taken a bit away from the spectacle of the event.

Jim Miller reflects on lengthy career ahead of UFC 300 return: "I've done it the right way"

Josh Evanoff - February 29, 2024

UFC lightweight contender Jim Miller has no regrets about the career that he’s had. The man to fans as ‘A-10’ is fast approaching his 41st birthday. Few expected, including Jim Miller himself, for the lightweight to still be fighting today. Given that his professional debut took place in 2005, it’s a miracle that he’s still active. However, Miller is doing more than just fighting in pointless contests.

Dana White says ‘journeyman’ Jim Miller has made millions of dollars in UFC

Harry Kettle - January 30, 2024

UFC CEO Dana White has suggested that Jim Miller has earned millions of dollars during his time with the promotion. Earlier this month, Jim Miller defeated Gabriel Benítez via submission, marking his fifth win in his last six fights. At the age of 40 years old, many fans can’t quite believe that Jim is still able to compete at such a high level.

Jim Miller fires back at Daniel Cormier over UFC Hall of Fame comments

Susan Cox - January 18, 2024

Jim Miller is firing back at Daniel Cormier over his recent remarks regarding his credentials for the UFC Hall of Fame. It was Cormier, speaking on his ‘DC & RC’ show who reflected on Miller’s wins and while agreeing his longevity is impressive, he doesn’t believe he’s worthy of Hall of Fame status:

Daniel Cormier still not sold on Jim Miller being a Hall of Famer after UFC Vegas 84

Cole Shelton - January 16, 2024

Daniel Cormier still doesn’t think Jim Miller is a UFC Hall of Famer. Miller scored a third-round submission over Gabriel Benitez at UFC Vegas 84 on Saturday to improve to 26-16 and one NC in the UFC. The American has the records for most fights and most wins in the UFC, but despite holding those records, he has never held a title, which Cormier believes is why he shouldn’t be in the Hall of Fame.

UFC Vegas 84 Bonus Report: Jim Miller among four 'POTN' winners

Chris Taylor - January 13, 2024

The Octagon remained in Nevada for tonight’s UFC Vegas 84 event, an 11-bout fight card headlined by Magomed Ankalaev vs. Johnny Walker 2. The highly anticipated light heavyweight rematch proved to be a coming out party for Magomed Ankalaev. After a close opening round, the Russian standout was able to get the better of Johnny Walker early and often in round two. Ankalaev eventually sent Walker crashing to the canvas with a big combination and promptly finished the fight with a follow up right hand (see that here).

Anthony Smith explains why Brock Lesnar vs. Jim Miller is a 50/50 fight

Josh Evanoff - January 10, 2024

UFC light-heavyweight contender Anthony Smith doesn’t sound so hot on a Brock Lesnar return. Over the last few months, there have been murmurs of a return to the octagon for the WWE superstar. Brock Lesnar hasn’t competed since a decision win over Mark Hunt in July 2016. However, that hasn’t stopped fans from speculating that he could return in April, at the historic milestone event, UFC 300.

Cole Shelton - January 9, 2024

Jim Miller always wanted to fight one more time before UFC 300. For years, Miller has been vocal that he wants to compete at UFC 300, given he has competed at both UFC 100 and 200. However, many were surprised when Miller was booked to fight at UFC Vegas 84 on Jan. 13, exactly three months before the historic event.

Josh Evanoff - June 12, 2023

UFC commentator Daniel Cormier has responded to backlash over recent comments regarding Jim Miller. ‘A-10’ returned to the octagon earlier this month at UFC Vegas 74. There, Miller faced short-notice replacement Jesse Butler, who was making his promotional debut. Unsurprisingly, the longtime UFC lightweight contender squared a knockout win, just seconds into the first round.
