Nevada Secretary of State Ross Miller is retiring from mixed martial arts as an undefeated light heavyweight.

There goes that dream division matchup between Jon “Bones” Jones, the face of the UFC, and Miller, 1-0.

“I’m one and done,” Miller said. “Competing in an MMA event was on my bucket list. Now that I’ve got it done, I’ve got a day job and an important election coming up.”

The 6-foot-4, 205-pound Miller won his MMA debut/swan song, one of 10 amateur fights Saturday held by the World Fighting Championship (WFC) at MontBleu casino in Stateline.

Miller’s fight, the co-main event, was with Jamal Williams, a former high school wrestler and brawler.

Miller’s walkout music was “Fortunate Son” by Creedence Clearwater Revival, a reference to his father, former Nevada Gov. Bob Miller.

Reno Police Chief Steve Pitts, who often trains with Miller, walked the secretary of state into the octagon.
