Some ugliness from this weekend finds its way back into our lives in the form of video from the infamous skirmish between Jason ‘Mayhem’ Miller and Uriah Hall. Miller and Hall were reportedly involved in an altercation Friday night at BAMMA USA’s Badbeat 11 event in Commerce, Calif. While some media outlets have worked to sort out the cause for the fray, we’re dealing with ‘Mayhem’ Miller, after all.
Now, video has emerged showing an aggressive Miller provoking Hall with taunts before being separated by security. Here’s how it happened, according to the video’s description:
The scene begins with Jason “Mayhem” Miller being aggressive to a woman who is apparently his ex girlfriend who he has allegedly assaulted in the recent past. She was visibly emotional and upset and he continued to yell at her. Uriah Hall poked his head in the situation and instantly Miller turned his aggression to him. He began with continuous rants of, “N**** please.” Then the video starts and you see the rest.

5 MUST-READ STORIES
20 years in 20 days. Chuck Mindenhall introduces his project to chronicle from the UFC’s early struggles through to the present culminating with November’s UFC 167. “So, to commemorate 20 years of UFC, this is a countdown to 1993. I’ll work backwards beginning with this long-winded introduction in our present year of 2013. Better to start with these lush times, and head backwards into the wilderness of Rome.”
Cowboy heading south. Career lightweight Donald Cerrone says he’s strongly contemplating a move to featherweight after he takes out Evan Dunham at UFC 167. “I don’t know. Most people lose a lot of fights, and they run down. I’m going to go down to 45 after a win, so we’ll see.”
100% confident. After reviewing the tape, referee Marc Goddard says he made the correct call in the Guillard-Pearson no-contest ruling. “The knee came in, connected with the forehead. That’s what caused the cut. That’s exactly what I saw, and that’s why I stopped the fight at that time to deal with it.”
Diego on Conor. Diego Sanchez says Dana White’s business acumen is the only thing stopping him from putting a beating on Conor McGregor. “Come on, there is money in him, he can bring a crowd to Ireland and Europe. So they are not going to give him someone like me who is just going to destroy this guy. It doesn’t make sense from a business standpoint.”
Another no-go for Drysdale. Originally slated to make his UFC debut at UFC 163, Robert Drysdale has been denied a fight license by the NSAC for elevated testosterone.

A few months ago I posted my first amateur MMA fight. Here is my second one.
I’m going into my third fight, and I’m moving up in the level of competition I’m facing. I would love it if you guys could critique the fights and tell me what I need to work on. I fight at featherweight and my next fight is on Nov. 8th.
