Round 2: Jab scores early for Miller and he's still moving. A right hand down the pipe absolutely drills Sicilia and he's rocked. Another one and Sicilia tries to take Miller down and can't as the ATT fighter gets his hips back. Miller scores again on the right hand, although slightly less potent. Then again and this time Sicilia is in huge trouble. Miller jumps mounted guillotine and Sicila escapes, but Miller's in side control. Sicilia tries to roll and Miller takes his back, snatches him off of his base and sinks the rear naked choke for the tap.
