Pat Miletich vs Frank Shamrock in Strikeforce?
Ariel Helwani talked to Pat Miletich and he dropped this tantalizing little nugget:
...Miletich said he is still looking to fight once or twice in 2009, possibly for Strikeforce.
"There was talk of [fighting Frank] Shamrock at one time, which I wouldn't mind fighting him," Miletich said. "He had a tough match against Diaz, so I don't know if that's still going on.
Regardless of Frank's loss to Diaz, I think a Frank Shamrock-Pat Miletich fight would be a very promotable "senior division" matchup between two former UFC champs.

I can’t tell which weight class is more stacked: 179lb of 195lb
Keep firing Assholes!
This is a dream competition for me. I drink as much coffee as I want, and eventually I hallucinate.

Indifferent – it’s a decent match, but I wouldn’t be particularly interested as it has no bearing on anything.

Frank lost one fight against a guy who has given some of the best fighters in the world trouble, and now he is done? MMA fans are so fickle
I like Frank
but it just seems that he was a former shell of himself in that fight. Maybe the day has come when he doesn’t have it in the ring anymore, or perhaps he just had a bad day. I say give him a few more fights and see where that leaves him.
If you want to speak in modern terms, Diaz was the toughest fight of his life except for Tito. All his other legit competition was always one dimensional and none of them hang with the best now a days.
People just don’t respect Nick like they should because of the whole pot thing and his occasional off night performances
Yeah he chose to stand with Cung Le for fun and got DQ’ed in the Renzo fight. Come on those are both bs losses
Don't buy into "The Legend's" hype...
The reason he stood with Cung Le is that he couldn’t take him down and he knew it. Still- I’d like to see him fight Miletich. I know it wouldn’t mean anything, but I think that’s a well-made, competitive fight. Fights don’t always have to have alot at stake to be interesting to me.

Is Severn vs tank in wargods.. If they make that happen, BE readers will rejoice!
Whats more interesting in the article is Pat dick tucking to the Dana… this has become a common occurrence lately.
You think he left WAMMA to bone up his HoF credentials?
