Jim Miller (37-17, 1 no contest) is getting his want.
The document holder for many wins and fights in Final Preventing Championship (UFC) historical past, Miller, has made it clear for a number of months that he desires to be the one fighter to have fought on UFC 100, UFC 200, and UFC 300. After one other strong win at UFC Vegas 84 this previous weekend (Jan. 13, 2024) over Gabriel Benitez through third spherical face crank (watch highlights), Miller now turns round to battle Bobby Inexperienced (31-15-1, 1 no contest) at UFC 300 on April 13, 2024. UFC CEO, Dana White, introduced the Light-weight bout on social media in the present day (Tues., Jan. 16, 2024).
It’s not Paul Felder, Matt Brown, and even Brock Lesnar … however the Inexperienced match up has the potential to carry the fireworks regardless. The pair have been matched thrice all through their UFC runs with points on Inexperienced’s finish canceling the bouts on all events.
Inexperienced’s final look was a tough one when he took on a short-notice substitute, Jalin Turner, at UFC Austin final month (Dec. 2, 2023). Turner blazed by means of “King” within the first spherical with strikes (watch highlights), leading to one of many worst late stoppages in combined martial arts (MMA) historical past.
A win for Miller would lengthen his present streak to 3 straight victories.
