Miller made history in the clash by becoming the first fighter to compete at UFC 100, 200 and 300.
But he took an absolute pasting.
The fan favourite won the first round with two knockdowns and a late flurry.
But Green took over in the second with his punches from the hip, which opened up a horror gash under the right eye of Miller.
His corner did a good job of stemming the flow of the blood between the second and third rounds.
But Green’s pin-point accuracy in the final stanza – in which he landed a crushing knockdown – re-opened the gaping wound.
MMA fans were blown away by Miller’s ability to take punishment and begged UFC boss Dana White to give him a bonus.
One wrote on X: “Jim Miller and Bobby Green need that bonus money off top.”

Another said: “Jim Miller deserves a 300k bonus just for his resume alone @danawhite.”
And another said: “Give Jim Miller a ‘Toughest MF’ER’ bonus.”
One remarked: “Jim Miller is a legend! Give him the bonus.”
Another chimed in: “Jim Miller has zero quit in him.
“What a fight. Bobby Green looking in top form. Pay these men some $$$$.”
Green’s turnaround in the second round and subsequent beatdown in the third saw the judges award him a unanimous decision victory courtesy of 30-27, 30-25, 29-26 scorecards.
Victory over Miller saw Green bounce back from a brutal KO loss to Jalin Turner.
And the Brit has now set his sights on throwing down with Brit Paddy Pimblett.
He said: “Paddy! How dare you, you slimey, sugary snake! How dare you say my name?
“July, I’m coming to your backyard, to your people, to kick YOUR ass!”
