During the UFC Vegas 84 post-fight press conference (watch here), Miller backtracked a little bit and favored a fight with Brown above Felder.
āI donāt know [if I want to fight Felder at UFC 300]. I donāt know. You know, like, Paul and I almost fought in 2015. You know, I think that fight would be brutal like that is a brutal fight, with me and him locked in a cage for 15 minutes,ā Miller said. āI also think that a Matt Brown fight is amazing as well; I think itās awesome. Because one, I donāt have to cut weight, and two, heās the guy with the most finishes in Welterweight, and Iām the guy with the most finishes in Lightweight. Like, thatās a fight for 300, right?
Like, letās put on a show, letās go out, letās entertain. Iām willing to move up in weight for that type of event. Itās not like Iām trying to, you know, get my ranking up or anything like thatā¦So, I want to put on an epic show with two badass dudes that have been around for a bit, and I think Matt might be that guy.ā
I would definitely rather see him fight Brown personally.
I think the Brown fight would be a great retirement fight for him.
Great opponent at a marquee eventā¦
