Anthony Pettis has designs on recapturing past glory.

Pettis will return to the scene of his greatest success -- the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s lightweight division -- when he takes on Jim Miller at UFC 213 this Saturday at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. It comes on the heels of a two-fight detour to 145 pounds that saw “Showtime” submit Charles Oliveira with a guillotine choke in August before missing weight and succumbing to strikes from Max Holloway in a showdown for the interim featherweight championship at UFC 206 less than four months later.
