Carlos Newton

Forgot the fact that he was screwed out of his belt in the matt hughes fight, the guy was really cool but do you think he will be remember as one of the greats in mma?

Re: Carlos Newton

Remembered yes, as one of the greats? definately not, he was a very good fighter with alot of talent, but he never got serious enough about his training and getting with a legit camp to be a dominant champ. I always liked carlos's style though.

Re: Carlos Newton

I liked Newton a lot, but he didn't really do anything to be considered a great. I think he lost about as many as he won. Funny you should mention him, I was watching the fight where he got blasted by Anderson Silva the other day.

Re: Carlos Newton

14-13...Tough to say he's one of the greats in MMA. But I always liked him a good tough Canadian boy. I really liked I think it was UFC 30 or 31 when he submitted Miletich a guy who only tapped 2 or 3 times in his whole career.

Re: Carlos Newton

Yeah he was more concerned with med school then anything else. Because he was in med school for the majority of his career. Is he great ? No. Is he talented ? Yes
