Written by Outside of some gray hairs, Jim Miller continues to prove ageless.
At UFC 309, Miller (38-18 MMA, 27-17 UFC) won his 27th fight with the promotion when he submitted Damon Jackson (23-8-1 MMA, 6-6-1 UFC) with a guillotine choke at 2:44 of Round 1.
After the fight, Jackson left his gloves in the center of the cage, seemingly signifying his retirement.
Like Jackson, many fighters have come and gone during the tenure of Miller, who has been with the promotion since 2008. Despite being 41 years old with 45 UFC fights under his belt, Miller’s success hasn’t really slowed. He’s won three of his most recent four outings. Saturday’s fight bounced him back from a UFC 300 loss to Bobby Green.
