Former Ultimate Fighter housemates Cole Miller and Matt Wiman went at it at the UFC Fight for the Troops 2 on Saturday night, and in a surprising result, it was Wiman who took the fight to Miller for 15 minutes, grounding and pounding his way to a one-sided unanimous decision.
The win improves Wiman’s record to 13-5 and puts him on a three-fight winning streak. Miller falls to 17-5 with one of the most disappointing showings of his career, a fight in which he hardly ever got off his back and took a serious beating.
“I was going through a lot of nerves before this fight,” Wiman said. “It was probably the most nervous I’ve been.”
Those nerves didn’t show — Wiman looked poised and confident.
