The rise, fall and recovery of former UFC fighter Jason “Mayhem” Miller. This Dark Side of the Cage premiere explores his MMA career, Bully Beatdown fame, battles outside the cage and path to sobriety.
Jason “Mayhem” Miller was one of MMA’s most unpredictable fighters—a gifted showman who crossed from the cage into mainstream television as the host of MTV’s Bully Beatdown.
In the premiere episode of Dark Side of the Cage, Miller and those closest to him trace his journey from a rebellious childhood and early MMA success to fights with Georges St-Pierre and Michael Bisping, the infamous Strikeforce brawl, and a rapid rise to celebrity. They also confront the addiction, mental-health crises, arrests and incarceration that followed—and the hard road toward sobriety, reconciliation and a new life as a coach, mentor and family man.
Featuring Jason “Mayhem” Miller, Georges St-Pierre, Randy Couture, “Big” John McCarthy, TJay Thompson and members of Miller’s family.
