Jason Miller: If I lose to C.B. Dollaway I would quit as it will be incompetent to stay – UFC News
Jason Miller, the former number one Strikeforce middleweight contender, recently broke his silence and put forth a weird stipulation that if he loses his upcoming bout with C.B. Dollaway, he will leave Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) voluntarily forever
as he believes that a loss from a low calibre brawler makes him incompetent to be a mixed martial artist.
Jason and Dollaway are scheduled to collide in a three-round non-title skirmish in UFC 146. The duo will fight in the octagon stretched at MGM Grand Garden Arena situated in Paradise, Nevada on May 26, 2012.
Jason, infamous as the ‘Mayhem’, has been in a total 31 mixed martial art bouts and came out victorious in 23. He has collected a huge 13 wins by making the opponent submit and is widely feared for being a potent submission specialist.
Jason was pompously brought in UFC by Dana White, UFC President, and it was hypothecated that he will create havoc in the middleweight division but this did not happen.
The American brawler faced Michael Bisping in his first ever UFC bout and got brutally knocked out by the former Cage Warrior light heavyweight champion. His defeat even saddened Dana who later on dubbed Jason’s performance as ‘It was bad. It was the weirdest
thing I've ever seen.’
This is the 31-year-old veteran’s second UFC bout and first after Michael-loss and he is in dire need to prove his worth in the flagship mixed martial art organisation. It is this reason why in a live TV show Jason imposed a severe condition over himself.
According to the details, Jason clearly and quite aggressively said, “I’m on my own chopping block. If I lose to him, I’m quitting! I don’t even deserve to be in there! He doesn’t deserve to be in there with me, and I’ll prove it. I’ll prove it in under
a round, because, we see...I tend to get tired in the second round (laughs). We’re both in a similar spot in our career I guess. I’m really happy with that.”
Jason continued and said that he will not make any excuses about his last loss to Michael Bisping adding that he first wants to prove that whether he deserves to stay in UFC or not and when it is done he will tell the real story as to what happened against
Michael.
Miller while revealing his intimate relationship with fighting, remarked, “It’s (fighting is) something that I’ve had a close, intimate relationship with since I was 16 years old. So, there’s something there that –it’s my wife. I don’t have a wife. That’s
my wife.”
Jason needs to show that he still has the guts to be a prolific belligerent otherwise his stipulation somewhat befits him especially after his loss to Michael. The UFC 146 pay-per-view will be headlined by the heavyweight championship bout between Junior
dos Santos and Alistair Overeem.
