When former UFC champion Pat Miletich showed up to fulfill his duties as a Strikeforce commentator at last Friday’s Challengers event in Stockton, Calif., he became part of a mini-reunion that he hadn’t planned on when he first took the job, he told Ariel Helwani on Monday’s edition of The MMA Hour.
The event marked the first time a Strikeforce show had been run under the Zuffa banner since the organization was purchased by the UFC’s parent company in March, and as a result Miletich was back in the same arena with his former employers, this time in a very different role.
Miletich said he had “conversations, but not meetings” with Zuffa officials before the event, and while he was pleased with how things went, he admitted that he was not without reservations when he first heard the news of the monumental sale.
