Ahead of 35th UFC appearance, Jim Miller still loves fighting as much now as he did in his debut

On Saturday night, Jim Miller will tie Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone for the most appearances in UFC history as he sets foot in the octagon for the 35th time.

During his 12 year career with the promotion, the New Jersey native has been considered a potential lightweight title contender, a constant threat to anybody in the top 15 rankings and one of the fighters who embodies the old school mentality where he’s willing to face anyone, anywhere, at any time.

In fact just before former matchmaker Joe Silva left the UFC following sale of the company in 2016, he offered Miller a fight.
