Jason "Mayhem" Miller is free to fight for any organization that will have him, the middleweight confirmed through his management Wednesday.

Having fought most recently in the Zuffa-operated World Extreme Cagefighting, Miller said he would "explore other avenues."

"I like adventures," the enigmatic Miller said. "I'm the Lewis and Clark of MMA. More Lewis than Clark. Actually, whoever was tagging Sacajawea, I'm him"..............

I doubt he would come back to UFC, they don't seem to like him very much, but thats where I'd prefer him to go more than the others. He's gotta come back man, ufc needs some personalities!

I am pretty sure it is obvious where he will end up, hmmm a big name fighter who doesnt demand huge money

I will bet $50 he ends up with Elite Xc/Strikeforce

Yeah there are some good fights for him there, he could fit nicely into the SF tourney with riggs/vitale/prangley, or fight Frank Shamrock or hell maybe even Cung Le in Elite XC

Still tho WTF is it with the UFC???? Is it Dana in particular who just doesnt like him for some reason? 0-1 with a decision loss to GSP after cutting too much weight is a rough way to end your ufc career, will he ever end up there again i wonder?

Its just too fcked up considering the lack of talent at 185 and the UFC's want of fighters with personalities they can market, I know it would never happen but TUF7 will be MW's ......... imagine how good that season would be with Mayhem on board!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sure he knows that, because what he was saying was whoever was doing Sacajawea, that's who he is.

But for the real subject, I think Elite would be a good place. A fight between him and Lawler would be entertaining.

And that fight with GSP was one hell of a fight, too! Mayhem didnt roll over, thats for sure... What a shame.

The UFC definately needs some more MW fighters. The MW division consists of Silva, Franklin, Hendo (if he drops back down), and THEN everybody else. There's a few solid fighters, but these three are without a doubt the leaders of that division. It'd be great to see Miller come and possibly shake things up a bit. However, with that said, I don't see him coming to the UFC. I'm not taking anything away from Dana's business accomplishments (expanding the MMA into mainstream, getting tv deal w/Spike, etc), but he seems to have a natural talent at pissing ppl off, and then not paying others what they deserve........

He already defeated Lawler. Hence winning the Icon championship belt. On his first title defense Trigg gave him the beat down and took the title away...then eventually lost it to Lawler. lol.

welterweight or middleweight.

most likely middle weight, thats where he looks best at imo. i wish he would stay with zuffa but i think hes going to eliteXC/ICON. Hawaii loves him and who wouldnt want to fight in hawaii.

Yeah he only fought that 1 fight against GSP at 170 and it was too much of a cut for him, im pretty sure all his fights since have been at 185

A rematch with Ruthless would be good and id like to see Elite XC get the guys the UFC are too dumb to sign up, Lawler/Diaz/Ninja/Villasenor are all easily UFC quality MW's and them being in the Elite XC is the reason why the UFC MW div is so weak, that and them refusing to have Filho for some retarded reason

I think we can stop the Dana sympathy now, yes he brought MMA into the mainstream, but it was hardly his amazing business brain that did that, a shit stained monkey could of done the same thing, all the utter retard mistakes he has made with letting guys go and not signing guys and the pay issue makes him laughable and we really dont owe him anything, the sport and the UFC would be much better off had they had a proper business man with clever business acumen who was interested in the sport running it
