Welterweights Billy Ray Goff and Ty Miller kicked off Saturday\u2019s UFC Vegas 120 main card at the Meta Apex in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n
Goff was returning from 15-month layoff, and fighting for just the fourth time since 2022. Early on, Goff managed to lock Miller up against the cage, clasping his hands and looking for a trip takedown. Miller, however, forced his way off the fence, and at center fired a head kick that partially landed, though Goff caught it and briefly dumped Miller on his back. Miller was right back up, but Goff was back on him with a bodylock.<\/p>\n
Back at center, Goff pressed the action, mixing in kicks, while Miller landed a right hand. Goff would shoot again, driving Miller into the fence, hands clasped once again. Miller\u2019s takedown defense was solid, but he wasn\u2019t winner points that way. Back at range was a different story, as Miller started finding his mark more often in the final minute of round one.<\/p>\n
Round two opened with Miller landing his jab repeatedly, giving Goff fits and starts. Miller really had his range down, while Goff seemingly struggled to clinch up the way he had in the opening frame. Two minutes in, Miller landed a combo, then follow up moments later by knocking Billy Ray Goff down! Miller went to his knees, dropping ground n\u2019 pound while Goff covered up. He\u2019d get to a sitting position, hanging on to Miller. They\u2019d come up in a clinch, but Miller broke free, and went back on the hunt. An uppercut connected for Miller; Goff fired a body shot in return. A spinning back elbow sailed wide for Goff. In the final minute, Miller seemingly landed at will, as Goff covered up, bobbed, weaved, and barely survived the round.<\/p>\n
Between rounds, Goff\u2019s corner basically told him to retreat, perhaps to buy recovery time. It didn\u2019t work out. Miller landed a punch to the eye, and Goff went down. A few more punches sealed Goff\u2019s fate, and Miller had the TKO win.<\/p>\n
