Miranda made his professional MMA debut in 2006 and has fought primarily in the U.S. northwest. Previous victories include current UFC fighter Rick Story, former UFC fighter Joe Vedepo, and one-time Strikeforce fighters Mike Hayes and Chad Vance.

Ultimate Fighting Championship

Originally, Mario tried out for the The Ultimate Fighter 11 but, in February 2010, the UFC announced they had signed Miranda to a contract.

He made his debut for the organization against Gerald Harris at UFC Fight Night: Florian vs. Gomi, losing for the first time in his career by TKO in the first round.[1]

Miranda faced David Loiseau on June 12, 2010 at UFC 115.[2] He won the fight via TKO in the second round.

Miranda lost to Demian Maia via unanimous decision on August 28, 2010 at UFC 118.[3]

Miranda made his fourth UFC appearance against Aaron Simpson on March 26, 2011 at UFC Fight Night 24.[4] Throughout the fight Miranda was dominated on ground, and eventually lost the fight via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-26).

Following the loss to Simpson, Miranda was subsequently released from the promotion.[5]
