Jim Miller set for 42nd UFC fight, meets Ludovit Klein in Las Vegas

Jim Miller has his 42nd UFC fight on the books.

At a UFC Fight Night event scheduled for June 3 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Miller (35-17 MMA, 24-16 UFC) returns against Ludovit Klein (19-4-1 MMA, 3-2-1 UFC) in a lightweight bout.

Two people with knowledge of the matchup recently informed MMA Junkie of the booking but asked to remain anonymous as the promotion has yet to make an official announcement.

Miller, 39, is the sixth-longest tenured fighter on the UFC roster – a member of the promotion since 2008. Miller most recently competed in February when he lost to Alexander Hernandez by unanimous decision. His three-fight winning streak was snapped in the process.

Klein, 28, is unbeaten in his three most recent fights. After back-to-back wins over Devonte Smith and Mason Jones, Klein drew with Jai Herbert at UFC 286 in March.

With the addition, the UFC Fight Night lineup for June 3 includes:

  • Brendan Allen vs. Jack Hermansson
  • Mayra Bueno Silva vs. Miesha Tate
  • Amir Albazi vs. Kai Kara-France
  • Ludovit Klein vs. Jim Miller
  • Alex Caceres vs. Daniel Pineda
  • Tim Elliott vs. Rodrigo Nascimento
  • Jinh Yu Frey vs. Elise Reed
  • David Onama vs. TBA
  • Da’Mon Blackshear vs. Luan Lacerda
