UFC fighter Jim Miller, who has been on the pro-MMA circuit since 2005, is 39 years old. 'A-10' made his pro debut in a winning effort against Eddie Fyvie at Reality Fighting 10 on November 19, 2005.

Now nearing almost two decades as a professional, the New Jersey native holds an enviable record consisting of 35 wins against 16 losses and one no-contest.

Miller will next be seen in action against Alexander Hernandez at UFC Vegas 69 on Saturday night in what will be 'A-10's' 41st appearance for the UFC. However, the fighter hopes to get a few more fights in before calling it a wrap on his promotional career.

Interestingly, the American has fought at both UFC 100 and UFC 200, and now hopes to make his final walk to the octagon at UFC 300. During a media event ahead of his upcoming fight, Miller said:

"I said I wanted to get to UFC 300. I’m pretty certain at this point that my body can make it, you know, barring something catastrophic. I’ve said if that I make it there, I want it to be my last UFC fight, and I’m pretty good with that. But I don’t want it to be one more fight in between. I would like UFC 300 to be my 45th UFC fight."

Miller holds the record for the most UFC wins (24). Additionally, he held an enviable seven-fight win streak from July 2009 to March 2011.

Although he has had rough patches in his career, even suffering a four-fight skid during 2017-18, Miller has since bounced back and is currently enjoying a three-fight win streak heading into this weekend's Fight Night event.
