MMA fans express disappointment over potential exclusion of veteran fighter Jim Miller from historic event
Mixed martial arts fans are expressing their anger and frustration over the apparent snub of beloved legend Jim Miller for the upcoming UFC 300 event. Scheduled to take place in April, UFC 300 is expected to be a historic pay-per-view extravaganza. While many are speculating that Conor McGregor would headline the event, diehard fans are more interested in seeing Miller, who holds the record for the most wins in UFC history, have a spot on the card. However, their hopes were dashed when Miller was booked to face Gabriel Benitez at UFC Vegas 84 on January 13.
Devoted fans take to social media to voice their disappointment
Fans of the sport took to social media platforms to express their disappointment and demand Miller's inclusion in UFC 300. One fan passionately wrote, "Jim Miller must be on the card and will make history as the only fighter on UFC 100, 200, and 300." Another fan echoed the sentiment, saying, "We really want to see Jim Miller at UFC 300 just as much as we want to see Dustin Poirier, Justin Gaethje, Max Holloway, etc." The outcry continued with fans stating that Miller deserved a spot on the historic card and threatening to riot if he was excluded.
Miller's potential participation remains uncertain
Despite fans' disappointment, there is still a possibility that Miller could fight at UFC 300. If he doesn't receive a lengthy medical suspension or sustain a serious injury in his upcoming bout, he could still make it to the historic event. Fans expressed concern over the quick turnaround and the potential risks, with one fan stating, "Jim Miller should not be fighting that close to UFC 300. He needs to be on 300 IDC."
Dana White praises Miller's longevity and physical shape
Miller, who returned to the win column in his 42nd octagon outing in June with a one-punch knockout, received high praise from UFC president and newly-minted CEO Dana White. White commended Miller's durability and physical shape, noting that he has maintained his career without the use of performance-enhancing drugs. White expressed his admiration for Miller's recent performance and stated that he should be recognized as one of the top fighters of the night.
It remains to be seen whether Jim Miller will ultimately secure a spot on the highly anticipated UFC 300 card. Fans are eagerly awaiting updates and hoping that their beloved veteran fighter will have the opportunity to showcase his skills on this historic occasion.
