UFC 31 & PRIDE 13 Rumors at ADCC

I'm surprised to see so many people picking Newton not just to win but to submit Miletich. Newton's a great fighter and all, but Miletich - although boring - is a solid veteran fighter. His only recent losses have been to Nakao in '99 (triangle choke), Pele last year (suppossedly because of a back injury), and Tamura by decision.

I pick Newton by close decision.

Newton over Miletich. This will be the first real title defence in a while for Pat. For example did a gas station attendant with 2 years total MA experience really have a chance (thanks for a good job Piretti)..

who worked in a gas station?

I forget his name. I believe they called him "the natural". He was a young blonde guy from western Canada (maybe Vancouver). Pat played with him for the first round, then barrelled over him in the second round.
