Jason Miller (fighter)

Jason Miller was born in an army hospital on Christmas Eve, 1980. Both parents were in the military and spent most of his youth moving around the United States, residing on Army bases' government housing- the longest on Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Miller developed an interest in combat sports at an early age and trained in traditional martial arts for periods as a child. His father was a paratrooper in the United States Army's 82nd Airborne Division and a former amateur boxer. Miller has attributed a lot of his fighting experience in interviews to neighborhood street fights and brawls with his father. https://www.giantbomb.com/jason-mayhem-miller/3005-14379/

In high school, he was on the wrestling team and trained in judo, and became interested in mixed martial arts after watching video tapes of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, Pride, and Vale Tudo Brazil, and joined a mixed martial arts gym at the age of 16. [6]

He made his mixed martial arts debut at the age of 17, forgoing his senior prom, to fight 27-year-old Al "Superman" Dill in a Virginia Beach event. Miller won by unanimous decision and embarked on a career in professional mixed martial arts.{{cite web |url=http://www.mmafighting.com/2011/10/20/my-first-fight-mayhem-miller|title=My First Fight: 'Mayhem' Miller|author=Ben Fowlkes|date=20 October 2011|work=MMA Fighting|access-date=22 May 2016}}

On October 16, 2004, Miller won his first Superbrawl Championship with a submission victory over Ronald Jhun. During the event, a riot broke out, and Miller was punched in the back of the head by fellow fighter Mark Moreno.{{cite web |url=http://www.lockflow.com/article_view.php?id=184 |title=Lockflow.com : Fighter Interview : Getting to Know: Jason "Mayhem" Miller |website=www.lockflow.com |access-date=15 January 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060629101523/http://www.lockflow.com/article_view.php?id=184 |archive-date=29 June 2006 |url-status=dead}} This set the stage for a grudge match in which Miller defeated Moreno with an armbar in the first round. Miller made the shaka sign shortly before the finish.

On September 2, 2006, Miller won the Icon Sport Middleweight title from Robbie Lawler in a back and forth battle. After being staggered and nearly finished by Lawler, Mayhem secured an arm triangle choke and won via submission in the third round. In December of the same year, Mayhem lost his first title defense to Frank Trigg via TKO in the second round, a fight in which he was favored to win.

Miller stepped into the Dream 4 tournament on short notice, progressing to the semifinals before his eventual elimination by Ronaldo Souza in the quarterfinals. Miller lost the fight by unanimous decision.

After a period of verbal sparring on Japanese, Brazilian and American media, Miller and Souza fought a rematch for the Dream Middleweight belt, which had recently been vacated after Gegard Mousasi's departure to the Light Heavyweight division. The fight ended in a no-contest after Miller landed an illegal soccer kick to Souza's forehead, opening a large gash and prompting a doctor's stoppage. Both fighters agreed to face each other again in September 2009, but the match was canceled after Souza signed with the Strikeforce promotion.{{cite web|url=http://www.fiveknuckles.com/mma-news/Ronaldo-Jacare-Souza-signs-with-Strikeforce.html|title=Five Knuckles|access-date=22 May 2016|url-status=usurped|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090807055616/http://www.fiveknuckles.com/mma-news/Ronaldo-Jacare-Souza-signs-with-Strikeforce.html|archive-date=7 August 2009}}

Miller fought Jake Shields for the vacant Strikeforce Middleweight Championship on November 7, 2009, on CBS as a part of Strikeforce: Fedor vs Rogers. Miller lost via unanimous decision (48–47, 49–46, and 49–46).

On April 17, 2010, Miller defeated Tim Stout at Strikeforce: Nashville by ground and pound TKO at 1:47 of the first round.

Miller was expected to face Robbie Lawler on June 16, 2010, at Strikeforce: Los Angeles, but was removed from the card after the Tennessee Athletic Commission suspended him for his part in the Nashville Brawl. After Shields' win over UFC veteran and former Pride FC Welterweight and Middlweight Champion Dan Henderson, Miller confronted Jake Shields for a title rematch. Although Shields was not surprised, Nick Diaz, Nate Diaz, and the rest of Team Gracie fought with Miller in the cage, prompting CBS announcer Gus Johnson to say "Gentlemen, we are on national television."{{cite web|url=http://www.sherdog.com/news/news/Lawler-Sobral-Set-for-June-16-Strikeforce-Expects-Mayhem-To-Be-Suspended-24151|title=Lawler-Sobral Set for June 16; Strikeforce Expects 'Mayhem' To Be Suspended|author=Loretta Hunt}}

Although Mayhem aggressively called out Nick Diaz,{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o864hZ5lAuM |title=Joe Rogan & Mayhem Miller talk more Strikeforce, UFC, and Bully Beatdown! |publisher=YouTube |date=2010-07-20 |access-date=2012-07-27}}{{cbignore}}{{Dead Youtube links|date=February 2022}} a fight between the two never materialized.

I want to." Miller won the fight by arm triangle choke.

On April 22, 2011, Miller announced via Twitter that in the wake of his Strikeforce contract expiration, he had signed a multi-fight deal with the UFC.{{cite web|last=Helwani |first=Ariel |url=http://www.mmafighting.com/2011/04/22/jason-mayhem-miller-signs-with-ufc/ |title=Jason 'Mayhem' Miller Signs With UFC |publisher=MMA Fighting |date=2011-04-22 |access-date=2012-07-27}}

On April 17, 2010, following Jake Shields' victory over Dan Henderson, Miller entered the cage unexpectedly during Shields' post-fight interview. During that interview, Miller interrupted Shields and asked "Where's my rematch, buddy?" Shields and associate Gilbert Melendez responded by pushing Miller away. Melendez, Nick Diaz, Nate Diaz, and other members of the Cesar Gracie Jiu-Jitsu camp attacked Miller, initiating a mass brawl. The fight was eventually broken up by referees, members of Dan Henderson's corner and the promoter's security personnel.

Miller and five other participants in the brawl were each given three-month suspensions and fines ranging between $5,000 and $7,500.{{cite web|url=http://www.sherdog.com/news/news/Coker-on-King-Mo-Babalu-Stalemate-International-Shows-135-Womens-Tourney-Kharitonov-Signing-and-More-25162|title=Coker on King Mo-Babalu Stalemate, International Shows, 135 Women's Tourney, Kharitonov Signing and More|author=Loretta Hunt}}

Following the events of the Nashville Brawl, Miller expressed an interest in fighting Nick Diaz. The 170-pound Diaz refused, stating he was the Strikeforce Welterweight Champion and needed to continue to fight at that weight. He requested Miller move down to 170 lb to fight him. Miller continued to attempt to set up a fight, offering 183 lb as a catchweight. Diaz counter-offered a catchweight of 181 lb. Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker expressed interest in scheduling a fight, but was unable to do so prior to Strikeforce's acquisition by Zuffa.{{cite web|url=http://www.mmafighting.com/2010/06/15/scott-coker-thinks-nick-diaz-vs-mayhem-miller-will-happen-withi|title=Scott Coker Thinks Nick Diaz vs. Mayhem Miller Will Happen Within Year|author=Ariel Helwani|date=15 June 2010|work=MMA Fighting|access-date=22 May 2016}}

On April 22, 2011, Miller signed a multi-fight agreement with the UFC.{{cite web|url=http://www.mmafighting.com/2011/04/22/jason-mayhem-miller-signs-with-ufc/|title=Jason 'Mayhem' Miller Signs With UFC|author=Ariel Helwani|date=22 April 2011}}

Miller was expected to face Aaron Simpson on July 2, 2011, at UFC 132.{{cite web|url=http://mmaweekly.com/jason-mayhem-miller-faces-aaron-simpson-in-his-return-at-ufc-132-in-july|title=Jason "Mayhem" Miller faces Aaron Simpson in his return at UFC 132 in July|publisher=MMA Weekly|date=April 23, 2011}} However, on May 27, 2011, it was revealed that Miller would coach opposite Michael Bisping on Season 15 of The Ultimate Fighter.{{cite web|url=http://mmajunkie.com/news/23764/report-the-ultimate-fighter-14-coaches-michael-bisping-and-mayhem-miller.mma|title="The Ultimate Fighter 14" coaches?

On December 3, 2011, Bisping defeated Miller during The Ultimate Fighter 14 Finale. Miller lost the fight via TKO at 3:34 of the third round.

Miller was then defeated by C. B. Dollaway on May 26, 2012, at UFC 146. After dropping Dollaway with a right hand, Miller appeared to injure his left knee. He was taken down for the rest of the fight and lost via unanimous decision (29–28, 30–26, and 29–28). Miller had previously stated on his Twitter page that if he lost the fight, he would retire.

Despite Miller's claim that he was considering retirement, Dana White opted to fire Miller one day after his loss to Dollaway. White cited unspecified "backstage antics" on the part of Miller as a partial reason for the cut, as well as Miller being a "clown" in his wardrobe choices before the fight.{{cite web|last=Fowlkes |first=Ben |url=http://www.mmafighting.com/2012/5/27/3046194/following-backstage-incident-ufc-146-loss-jason-mayhem-miller-done-in |title=Following Backstage Incident, UFC 146 Loss, Jason 'Mayhem' Miller 'Done' in UFC |date=27 May 2012 |publisher=MMA Fighting |access-date=2012-07-27}} Miller later described a brief confrontation with backstage official Burt Watson over Miller's attempt to wear a gasmask and colorful paper bag over his face for his walk-out.{{cite web|url=http://www.fightline.com/fl-news-2012-0528-548729-jason-mayhem-miller/|title=Mayhem Miller Talks Backstage Incident, Retirement|publisher=Fight Line|date=May 28, 2012}}

On October 8, 2012, Miller appeared on Ariel Helwani's internet talk show the MMA Hour to promote his upcoming film Here Comes the Boom. Miller gave the interview "in character" as Lucky Patrick, his role from the film, and became upset when Helwani asked him to instead give the interview as Jason Miller. Still in his persona as Lucky Patrick, Miller stormed off of the set in a rage.{{cite web|url= https://www.espn.com/blog/mma/post/_/id/14658|title='Mayhem' officially toeing the deep end|work=ESPN.com|date=9 October 2012|access-date=17 July 2020}}{{cite web|url=http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1363599-video-jason-mayhem-millers-bizarre-appearance-on-the-mma-hour|title=Video: Jason 'Mayhem' Miller's Bizarre Appearance on the MMA Hour|author=Matthew Roth|work=Bleacher Report|access-date=22 May 2016}}{{cite web|url=http://www.mmafighting.com/2012/10/8/3475598/jason-mayhem-miller-walks-out-on-the-mma-hour-after-bizarre-behavior|title=Jason 'Mayhem' Miller walks out on The MMA Hour after bizarre behavior on set|author=Dave Doyle|date=8 October 2012|work=MMA Fighting|access-date=22 May 2016}}

Miller was submitted by rear naked choke.{{cite web|url=https://www.mmafighting.com/2016/5/21/11729750/venator-fc-3-results-rousimar-palhares-loses-via-knockout-mayhem-gets|title=Venator FC 3 Results: Rousimar Palhares knocked out; Jason 'Mayhem' Miller submitted|last=Segura|first=Danny|date=2016-05-21|website=MMA Fighting|access-date=2020-07-17}}

In a 2016 interview with Chael Sonnen, Miller said that the loss to Schiavolin helped him to begin to turn his life around from the legal troubles and drug addiction that have plagued him since his retirement in 2012. He also went on to say that he felt a positive energy being back in the cage and would return to fighting, this time as a Light Heavyweight.{{cite web|url=https://www.mmafighting.com/2016/5/26/11776424/morning-report|title=Morning Report: Jason 'Mayhem' Miller explains why he missed weight, says he is back to 'the normal human world'|publisher=MMA Fighting|date=2016-05-26}}

Miller competed in the Southern California Pro-Am Invitational 2003, beating Kenny Bond and Sean Spangler to make it to the semi-final, where he lost to Rener Gracie.{{cite web |last1=Burne |first1=Kathrine |title=Throwback: Rener Gracie vs Cassio Werneck Ends In Controversy |url=https://jitsmagazine.com/throwback-rener-gracie-vs-cassio-werneck-ends-in-controversy/ |website=Jitsmagazine |date=7 February 2024 |access-date=7 February 2024}}

In August 2012, Miller was arrested in Mission Viejo, California, and charged with trespassing and burglary after an incident at a church. The pastor at the church told law enforcement that Miller had broken into the church and destroyed a variety of pictures, CDs, and books inside. Miller also discharged a fire extinguisher, leaving a residue trail to the second floor where police reportedly found a naked Miller sleeping on a couch. He was taken into custody and later released on $20,000 bond. The charge was dismissed when the pastor, the complaining witness in the case, thought it would be best to give Miller spiritual guidance as opposed to jail time.{{cite news|url=http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2012/09/mma-fighter-jason-mayhem-miller-naked-incident.html|title=MMA fighter Jason 'Mayhem' Miller charged in naked church incident|newspaper=LA Times}}

Miller was arrested for an outstanding warrant on October 9, 2014, after a five-hour-long standoff with a SWAT team outside his Orange County, California, home. Over the course of the stand-off, Miller gave live updates through his Twitter account.{{cite news|url=https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-jason-mayhem-miller-live-tweeting-police-standoff-20141009-htmlstory.html |title=MMA fighter 'Mayhem' Miller surrenders after hours-long SWAT standoff |first=Christine|last=Mai-Duc|newspaper=Los Angeles Times|date=October 9, 2014|access-date=October 9, 2014}}

On October 16, 2015, law enforcement responded to a domestic disturbance call at Miller's residence involving Miller and two women. After deputies arrived, Miller threw a ceramic tile at them and threatened them with a fire extinguisher and a metal pole. He was tased by police and arrested for assault.{{cite web|url=https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-mma-fighter-mayhem-miller-arrested-20151016-story.html|title=Arrested MMA fighter ‘Mayhem’ Miller wielded tile, fire extinguisher, authorities say|date=16 October 2015|publisher=LA Times}}

He was released the same day. {{cite web|url=https://www.mmafighting.com/2016/2/11/10968048/jason-mayhem-miller-arrested-for-suspicion-of-dui-in-irvine-calif|title=Jason 'Mayhem' Miller arrested for suspicion of DUI|work=MMAFighting.com|author=Dave Doyle|date=February 11, 2016}}

In March 2016, Miller was arrested in Mission Viejo, California. He was accused of vandalizing a brick wall outside of Stay Ready Tattoo with graffiti, said Roxi Fyad, spokeswoman of the Orange County district attorney’s office, https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-mma-fighter-mayhem-miller-arrested-20160316-story.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter&dlvrit=649324 a tattoo shop in Lake Forest, California two months prior.{{cite web|url=https://ktla.com/sports/mma-fighter-mayhem-miller-arrested-for-allegedly-vandalizing-oc-tattoo-shop-bail-set-at-1-million/|title=MMA Fighter 'Mayhem' Miller Arrested for Allegedly Vandalizing OC Tattoo Shop; Bail Set at $1 Million|work=KTLA|author=Los Angeles Times|date=March 16, 2016}}

On July 11, 2016, Miller was arrested in Costa Mesa, California, and charged with two counts of assault and battery after allegedly injuring a security guard and spitting on a police officer at the Saddle Ranch Chop House restaurant. The charges were later dismissed.{{cite news|url=https://www.latimes.com/socal/daily-pilot/news/tn-dpt-me-miller-arrest-20160711-story.html|title=MMA fighter 'Mayhem' Miller arrested in altercation at Costa Mesa restaurant|newspaper=LA Times}}

On October 23, 2018, Miller was arrested on charges of felony vandalism in Orange County after destroying property at his girlfriend's La Habra, California, home. Miller's girlfriend claimed that during an argument, Miller smashed a large marble table, punched holes in the walls, tore down doors, and derailed the home's garage door. He was arrested and held without bail in the Orange County detention center. The felony vandalism charge carried a maximum penalty of eight months in jail, but due to the nature of the incident, prior convictions, and a probation violation, Miller faced up to 23 years in a California state prison.{{cite web|url=https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-mayhem-miller-20181025-story.html|title=Former MMA fighter Jason 'Mayhem' Miller arrested again on vandalism charges|work=Los Angeles Times|date=October 26, 2018}}{{cite web|url=https://www.mmafighting.com/2018/10/23/18017452/mayhem-miller-arrested-for-felony-vandalism-in-danger-of-facing-jail-sentence|title='Mayhem' Miller arrested for felony vandalism, in danger of facing jail sentence|work=mmafighting.com|date=October 23, 2018}} While he initially pleaded not guilty, on July 19, 2019, it was reported that Miller had accepted a plea deal and was sentenced to one year in jail with time served being credited.{{cite web|url=https://www.bjpenn.com/mma-news/ufc/ufc-strikeforce-veteran-jason-mayhem-miller-gets-jail-time-with-guilty-plea/|title=UFC, Strikeforce veteran Jason 'Mayhem' Miller gets jail time with guilty plea|work=BJPenn.com|date=July 19, 2019|access-date=July 19, 2019}} He was released from jail in September 2019.{{cite web|url=https://www.mmafighting.com/2019/9/4/20849008/jason-mayhem-miller-apologizes-reflects-on-dark-times-in-statement|title=Jason 'Mayhem' Miller apologizes, reflects on 'dark times' in statement|author=Danny Segura|date=September 4, 2019|work=MMAFighting.com}}
