The first UFC welterweight champion talks about Conor McGregor's chances competing at 170 lbs.
Pat Miletich won the first ever UFC welterweight championship back in 1998, and held the title for 3 years. After he lost the title in 2001, his student Matt Hughes won the belt in the same year and went on to have numerous title defenses as well. The hall-of-fame inductee has since discussed the current state of the division he once spearheaded in a recent appearance with Submission Radio.
Among the topics Miletich tackled was Conor McGregor's 2nd bout at 170 lbs, and whether he can actually compete in the division, as he claimed numerous times before the loss to Diaz.
