Of all the achievements, one that has aged particularly well is that he gave the current UFC lightweight champion his first loss. The two first met in 2010 when Charles Oliveira was a 14-0 fighter who finished all but one victory. Miller, ever the game athlete, took this fight regardless of how dangerous it was.
Relentless pressure from the New Jersey fighter had 'Do Bronx' shooting takedowns off of his back foot which were easy for Miller to defend. While it was 'A-10' who scored the takedown, his Brazilian adversary was happy to engage in a grappling battle. During one of the scrambles, Oliveira tried to attack one of Miller's legs, and in response, Miller countered by attacking a leg right back. The kneebar was locked in, forcing Oliveira to tap and giving the Brazilian his first loss.
#3. Aljamain Sterling vs. Cody Stamann
After all the controversy, Aljamain Sterling is now the undisputed UFC bantamweight champion. En route to the title, Sterling picked up some very important wins in his career. One of the best being his electrifying finish of Cody Stamann.
If his fights tell you one thing, it's that 'Funk Master' is a problem when he's on an opponent's back. He's very good at getting to that position, too. Though 'The Spartan' was hip to it, Sterling did what he does best and there aren't many fighters who can stop that.
'Funk Master' took Stamann's back and began dominating him from all sides. As strikes rained down, Stamann attempted to utilize gravity and toss his opponent forward by raising his hips into the air. Sterling fell forward, but Stamann fell for the trap. This defensive move gave the Serra-Longo fighter a position to grab a leg and hyperextended it. This submission is both a stretch and a kneebar, so it's painful in multiple ways, earning it a spot amongst the best kneebars in UFC history.
