Jim Miller on Diaz vs. McGregor 2 main event: 'I've seen both guys perform a lot better'

For all the fawning over Saturday night's back-and-forth main event between Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz at UFC 202, there were at least a few who didn't see it as an instant classic.

One of those was Jim Miller, who fights Joe Lauzon this coming weekend at UFC on FOX 21 in Vancouver. Miller has fought Diaz at UFC on FOX 3 in 2012, and he's seen enough of McGregor to conclude that something was amiss.

"I thought it was a very compelling fight, [but] I've seen those guys perform a lot better if I'm being hypercritical," he told MMA Fighting's Esther Lin during a Facebook Live interview.
