Profile
Overview
Two UFC fights, two knockouts, and one of them landed at 4:59 of the first round. Ty Miller, "Thriller," is a welterweight out of Phoenix who sits at 2-0 in the UFC and 8-0 across all promotions, with the UFC finishes still unbeaten and untested by the scorecards.
UFC Career
Miller's route to the UFC ran through Dana White's Contender Series, where he beat Jimmy Drago by unanimous decision at Dana White's Contender Series 9.1 in August 2025. That fight is part of his professional record, not his UFC record.
He debuted at UFC 324 and stopped Adam Fugitt by TKO at 4:59 of round 1. One second from the bell. Next came Billy Ray Goff on a Fight Night card in August 2026, and that one ended 15 seconds into round 3.
Both UFC wins came by KO/TKO, and he carries a two-fight win streak forward.
Fighting Style
Ty Miller is a busy striker who is hard to hit. He lands a high volume of strikes and avoids a lot of what comes back, and he is also tough to take down. He rarely looks to grapple himself and almost never hunts for submissions, which keeps his game built around striking.
His output and accuracy otherwise look close to the UFC average, and he absorbs strikes at a typical rate.
It's a small sample, but the finishes match the profile. Both of his UFC wins have come by knockout or TKO, one in the first round and one in the third.
