LAS VEGAS – It’s only fitting Jim Miller kicked off UFC 300 fight week festivities Wednesday, considering the years of build.
As he’s done dozens of times before and after fights, Miller (37-17 MMA, 26-16 UFC) greeted reporters with a smile as he sat down and picked up the microphone – but the moment felt uniquely special.
Miller, 40, is on the verge of history, as his attire referenced. He sported a black UFC 100 jacket, given to him when he fought Mac Danzig at the historic event in 2009 – seven years before he competed at UFC 200 vs. Takanori Gomi.
