Jim Miller has accepted another late-notice UFC fight.
A man with more wins in the UFC than nearly any other fighter is willing to step up on very short notice to add to that total. Again. Jim Miller, who picked up a win in late June, will return to fight Vinc Pichel at UFC 252 in just 10 days.
The UFC made the bout official today as they released the full card for the event.
Miller (32-14, 1 NC) currently has 21 wins in 35 fights in the promotion. This bout will move him into first place in total fights all-time for now – at least until Donald Cerrone competes again. A win would tie him for second on the all-time list with Demian Maia. Miller is coming off a quick win over Roosevelt Roberts, and is 3-1 in his last four.
Pichel (12-2) is 5-2 in the UFC, but hasn’t competed since a win over the aforementioned Roberts in June of 2019.
UFC 252 will be headlined by the third UFC heavyweight title fight between Stipe Miocic and Daniel Cormier. According to the UFC, Miller vs. Pichel will serve as the featured bout of the televised preliminary card.
