Jim Miller etched his name further into UFC history at UFC 328 on May 9, 2026, surpassing his own records for the most appearances and the most victories in the promotion's history.
The 42-year-old New Jersey native, fighting out of Sussex County MMA, now holds a professional record of 39-19-0 and has accumulated 28 wins inside the UFC across 47 appearances. Known as "A-10," Miller has been competing professionally for 18 years, a testament to his durability and conditioning in one of combat sports' most demanding divisions. The southpaw lightweight stands five-foot-eight with a 71-inch reach and lands 2.92 significant strikes per minute, adding to a well-rounded game that also features 1.5 takedowns per 15 minutes and 1.7 submission attempts per 15 minutes.
Miller's latest record also brings him to 20 finishes in the UFC, leaving him just one shy of matching Charles Oliveira's all-time organizational record of 21.
Oliveira, the Brazilian submission specialist ranked third in the lightweight division and 11th pound-for-pound, holds a professional record of 37-11-0. The 36-year-old trains out of Chute Boxe Diego Lima and has built his finishing record largely through a smothering submission game, averaging 2.6 submission attempts per 15 minutes. His 21 UFC finishes have long stood as the benchmark for the most prolific finisher in the promotion's history.
Why it matters
- Miller now holds the UFC records for most appearances (47) and most wins (28) outright
- At 20 UFC finishes, he is one finish away from tying Oliveira's all-time record of 21
- A fighter approaching his mid-40s threatening finishing records underlines the remarkable longevity of Miller's career
