First time I see Miller in action. To me, he looks like some kind of a freak show. Kassi was a good test indeed, but from now on all the higher ranked HWers will probably give him a very tough time. One interesting match up would be against King Kong Ortiz.
I believe he is the real thing, hard to believe he weighs nearly 300 pounds he carries it well
