As expected, "The Ultimate Fighter 14" coach Jason "Mayhem" Miller (24-8 MMA, 0-2 UFC) will get another UFC fight.

Officials announced overnight that the veteran middleweight has verbally agreed to meet C.B. Dollaway (11-4 MMA, 5-4 UFC) at UFC 146 on Memorial Day weekend.

UFC 146 takes place May 26 in Las Vegas, likely at MGM Grand Garden Arena with a heavyweight headliner between champion Junior Dos Santos and top contender Alistair Overeem.

The main card is expected to air on pay-per-view, and FX likely will carry the prelims. It's not clear where Miller vs. Dollaway will land on the lineup.

Regardless, both are likely fighting for their jobs.

After a stint with Strikeforce, Miller signed with the UFC and replaced Chael Sonnen (licensing issues) on "TUF 14." However, after an uninspired loss to fellow coach Michael Bisping at the show's live finale in December, UFC president Dana White cast doubt on whether Miller would return to the organization. Now that he will, he looks to shake out of a 3-3 skid that followed a 10-2 run that included an ICON Sport title and stints with the WEC and DREAM. The 10-2 run came after a UFC 52 loss to Georges St-Pierre that marked Miller's UFC debut.

The fan favorite now meets Dolloway. Although the "TUF 7" runner-up won five of his first six UFC fights after the reality show's finale (where he lost to Amir Sdollah), the former Arizona State wrestler since has suffered knockout losses to Mark Munoz and Jared Hamman. The Miller fight will be his first in more than nine months.
