These days, every time Jim Miller fight is an opportunity to add to what is already a memorable legacy. When Miller stepped into the octagon to meet Roosevelt Roberts in the main-card opener of UFC on ESPN 11 on Saturday night, he tied Donald Cerrone for most octagon appearances in UFC history with 35. Then the 36-year old Miller (32-14 MMA, 21-13 UFC) went out and submitted Roberts (10-2 MMA, 4-2 UFC), who was 14 when Miller made his UFC debut in 2008, at just 2:25 into the opening round.
