Ben Henderson: I definitely remember the comments Jim Miller made about WEC fighters
Posted on August 13, 2011, 03:11 PM by Joey SantosusFormer WEC Champion Ben Henderson, who will meet Jim Miller in Sunday's co-main event, discusses his opponent, as well as the implications of the bout. Henderson feels the majority of the pressure is on Miller, who, if victorious, will get a title shot against the winner of Frankie Edgar vs. Gray Maynard III.
Henderson made his UFC debut back in April, defeating top Lightweight contender Mark Bocek via unanimous decision. If successful against Miller, "Smooth" will pick up his 14th career victory and firmly secure his spot in the division's title mix.

Ben's awesome. Really hope he gets the win.
smae here man, but id have no problem if miller wins, but hopefully bendos got this
Ben seems like a good dude ..
just too bad he is in Millers way.
I think Jim has waited too long to get a title shot (thx 2 Dana LeDouchebag) to fold under pressure. We will probably see the most energized Miller to date.
Just hate to see Ben lose back-to-back fights.
Agreed. However, it wouldn't be back to back losses for Ben, you're forgetting his win over Mark Bocek in his octagon debut. Didn't read the intro description did ya? :p
