By Russell Ess - June 2, 2016

Cole Miller is facing Alex Caceres this weekend at UFC 199 but was supposed to be fighting BJ Penn in a featherweight bout.

Miller, who got in on the UFC 199 card on short notice came to fill in for Penn’s original opponent, Dennis Siver after Siver was injured in training. Miller was given a new opponent on even shorter notice after Penn was pulled from UFC 199 for his admitted IV use.

Miller talks about his reaction to Penn’s IV use and being pulled from their fight with Ariel Helwani ahead of UFC 199 that takes place at The Forum in Inglewood, California this weekend.
