I am ready to focus on other stuff. \u2026 I\u2019ve dragged this on for a long, long time. I was preparing to retire at UFC 200 before I found out I had Lyme disease. It\u2019s been a privilege to come back from that point.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Jim Miller open to wrestling matches after UFC career<\/h3>\n<p>With Miller approaching the end of his career, which will likely be in the next few months, he is thankful for everything MMA brought him.<\/p>\n<p>However, once he retires from MMA, Miller knows he won\u2019t be done with combat sports as he\u2019s open to boxing matches or some wrestling matches in RAF.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cAs I said, I am ready to move on, so yeah, there was some buzz that I got a new contract right after my last fight. There was a miscommunication. I want whatever I signed to be the final fights, done at 50 fights. This sport has been great to me, it\u2019s given me a lot, it\u2019s taken a lot and I would like to maybe box once or twice and lace the wrestling shoes back up with RAF. Kind of slide away from the sport of MMA.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For now, the focus for Jim Miller is on his final three UFC fights and pulling off the upset and beating Terrance McKinney on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Do you think Jim Miller will beat Terrance McKinney at UFC 334?<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-1 mt-0 os-source\">This article appeared first on BJPENN.COM<\/p>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bjpenn.com\/mma-news\/jim-miller\/jim-miller-admits-hes-ready-for-retirement-as-he-approaches-50-ufc-fights\/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=jim-miller-admits-hes-ready-for-retirement-as-he-approaches-50-ufc-fights\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trending:UFC Edmonton Results: Mike Malott KO\u2019s Joaquin Buckley (Video) Jim Miller knows he has three fights left in his career.
