I admit I was impressed with Miller. I was always conscerned that he was "weak"

and maybe he isn’t the hulk of the division but he’s mean – he can turn it on – and he shut me the fuck up last night. I thought Pearson was going to walk in and rain hooks until he fell over.

Oliveria vs Miller – Damn good prospect fight right there.

Vitor is coming. Somebody better polish up that MW belt.

That would be pretty awesome!

Both fighters are tall and lanky with crazy Jitz’.

Of course Oliveria’s BJJ seems other worldly but I think Cole’s terrific stand up would even it out.

Good call, that would be a great fight!

Magrinho is the real deal!

You can’t see enough of this guy! HE COMES TO FIGHT! In his career to date he has won @ least 86% of his fight by finishing his opponent. 12 subs 3 Kos.. He is a guy I want to see move up the UFC LW ladder to a title shot.. right now. Joe Lauzon vs Cole Miller part2?

He made an excellent point in his post fight interview.. about wrestlers out pointing.. and lay and pray BJJ guys.

 " This is a fight.. not playing the clocking like football "

I’m not sure if that’s exactly what he said.. but I understood his point.

by PhilQNY on Sep 16, 2010 10:11 AM EDT reply actions  

Nope.

Cole Miller is an exciting fighter that brings it every time, BUT… He was getting tagged a lot last night. His stand up is alright, but it’s not good enough to win him big fights. His Ju-jit-su might be great, but his wrestling is not. I see Cole hanging around the middle of the dvision for a long time.

by budgellism on Sep 16, 2010 10:16 AM EDT reply actions  

I'll admit, he did impress me.

I really did think Cole would get knocked out in this fight – especially because of his “style”. He did impress me, but…

Cole got caught flush from a couple of Ross’s hooks. That’s a problem for someone with Cole’s frame. It’s the same kind of issue Cerrone has. These guys are tall for their division and have heads that are easy targets. I’ve seen both get hurt from heavy-handed punchers, so…

I predict a spotty career for Cole (based mainly on a suspect chin).

by Collin4mma on Sep 16, 2010 10:16 AM EDT reply actions  

I picked Cole to win by choke!

 New Ross would have a hard time with his size and skill. Cole is know joke! he has gotten a lot nastier in the cage over the last couple years as well. Ive always liked him.

I think Florian vs Miller would be good.

Joe Lauzon would probably be my first choice but he’s fighting Sotiropolous. He could get revenge for his brother.

I like Miller's style

* "Standing in the ring in whatever condition I'm in is my way of life."
* "I don't think the injury was the cause for my defeat, I lost being in 100% condition at fight day. It's possible that Santiago might have been injured as well, I lost because my best was insufficient, only mortifying thoughts remain now. I think I would've entered the ring even if I lost one of my legs, I'm a fighter who fights, not with technique, but with heart."

Really!!! Cole is a joke. His stand up was average at best and his jitz is ok...

Bottom line he chipped a choked a superior fighter and is talking out his ass.He has no clue how to use his reach and just swings wildly.Any top 8 lightweight is gonna slaughter him. Ohhh and Cole your tattoo is ghey,and stop kissing it and stop crying every time you win.

Your a typical critic.

Calling Rashad a pussy and saying Cole Miller is gay, I doubt you could fight.

I didn't say Cole was going to be a champ

i didn’t say Cole was a top fighter. I said I liked Miller’s style. The rest was created in your own mind. Be angry…doesn’t effect me.

Fine Big.

Rashad is not a pussy but I did like your answer. It was’nt all angry and pissed off, so I can respect it.

NOBODY wants to fight Fedor, Except: Brock Lesnar, Shane Carwin, Frank Mir, JDS, Roy Nelson, Cain Velasquez, and the rest of the UFC heavyweight division.

what part of my comment made you think I was sensitive or upset in any manner?

I’m not the one using excessive exclamation points.

moving on…

RaawwwWWRrrrr!!!

Me so mad, me use exclamation points!!! Ok, come on guys this is the internet, Al Gore invented it, we should use it responsibly. Keyboard warrioring is uncalled for.

Sharing opinions is great and I love this website, getting in online spats…well makes me feel like we’re in 4th grade again, and we’re not, most of us are adults. Lets act like it more often.

Keep it classy San Diego.

Just wanted to lighten a way too serious internet squabble. I’m not a fan of Rashad either. :)

I think his next fight should be Jim Miller.

Because the question is for both of them is are they top five yet.

by guyverbob on Sep 16, 2010 11:06 AM EDT reply actions  

Jim Miller is much higher on the ladder than Cole Miller both in his standing in the division and his skill as a fighter.
