36-year old Jim Miller is winding down a long career, 3-6 in his last nine fights. Five of his last six bouts have ended in the first round, including a pair of defeats to Charles Oliveira and Dan Hooker. He hasn't fought since February, a loss to Scott Holtzman by unanimous decision, and his striking accuracy has dipped to 2.83 significant strikes per minute. He doesn't match-up well with Roosevelt Roberts, a guy 10 years younger with a six-inch height advantage. Roberts is 10-1 in his MMA career, including 3-1 in UFC. He's fresh off a second-round victory over Brok Weaver by submission that took place less than three weeks ago. Roberts is in his prime, has a better significant strikes per minute (3.12) mark, and holds call the cards. Back Roosevelt Roberts to win the match.
