The only reason fedor didn't finish him is because nog was in his prime. If he didnt just stand there with his hands down it would have been a different fight with Mir. We've only seen Mir's Offense. now lets see his defense against the guy taht almost beat him is first day in the sport.

@mayhem420 - Yes. Yes I do. But not the Fedor part... Have you heard his recent interviews? His televised appearances and statements made on MMA coverage are just silly. The man has no character, he's bloody boring and as thick as a camels cock. I judge fighters on their personas also, it makes the fight more exciting if you love or hate a fighter for who they are. He's just not got the X factor!

Dunno how to pick this one. If Mir's standup performance against Nog wasn't just Nog being sick, then Mir wins. Otherwise, Brock's steady improvement should get the W.

The best prediction I can make is that, it'll be a good one...

murrrrrrrrr

I saw a re-enactment of this fight at the bar War Machine was working, I believe it was promoted as Cock Chestner vs Frankly Queer. Bruce Fluffer was the announcer.

I actually want to see the YoshiYoshi fight. He was doing great(in previous matches) until he almost died against Kosh.

Fighting a guy with a staph infection and half a tank will make anyone's striking look phenomenal. Granted, Big Nog is less known for his stand-up than ground game. Mir did win but Nog wasn't the guy Fedor fought back in Pride. Things have taken their toll.

As much as I don't like Lesnar, I know he's been working his fucking ass off to be ready for Mir. Saying that a great athlete with exceptional natural ability and work ethic hasn't been working to improve his game is laughable. I don't think Lesnar will let Mir beat him twice. The fire of competition will push him because of that 'L' to Mir.

Pulling for Mir here




let's see somebody actually RNC this giant.

Mir via freak knee bar only after lesnar barley misses mirs head and gets his ham hock (hand) stuck from punching it clean through the mat. They end up calling the move the bugs bun-knee.

Lesnar by Motocycle Accident - KO Round 1

Lesnar wins via gnp, 1st round. He's gonna box Mur's urs in.

WOW, how things have changed. not one (very) negative thing about brock, is he earning respect. did we just watch all the people who hated him slowly turn into slight fans or having some what of a respect for him.

before i wanted brock to win so all of you(not all, but a lot) would shut the fuck up with your high and mighty mma bullshit "he cant be in our sport". but now that most of you are actually giving him the benefit of saying he could and very well might win, just makes things a lot less interesting. not really sure who i want to win now, but it will be a good fight.

actually, mir is a douche bag and i hope he gets pummeled.

I'm actually excited to see 9/10 of those fights. That's a great fucking card.

I just had a flash premonition that this fight will be the undisputed greatest MMA fight of all time. Nothing to back that up besides the visions in my head.

I love acid.

Goog for the motherfucking win. That is exactly how I see this fight going as well. Mir just does not have the power that Lesnar has, say what you want about fighting on the ground but everyone on here who really trains knows that if a guy as big as Lesnar catches you with a solid shot to the jaw you are going out or at least down very roughly. And we all saw how Mir's chin is when he fought a guy who should be fighting at Light Heavy and got his ass knocked out. Chin has nothing to do with being in shape, and lastly I heard Big Nog had a staph infection or some shit like that for his fight with Mir.

@ Sodak:

Yay for waiting being on comedy central the other night!

Every giant has his Achilles' heel. Lesnar's is his extremely sensitive poop chute.
Mir, it's up to you to exploit it somehow. Mir by colon choke in the 2nd.

is it me or in this pic does it look like lesnar's penis tat actually look like its ejaculating?

ANYWAYS
i think mir has multiple advantages over lesnar..
mir's striking looks amazing at this point, so i'm sure he can stand against lesnar and his boulder fists
and
mir's ground game is pretty sick (not to mention that's what got him to beat brock in the first place).
just gotta hope frank doesn't end up getting squashed by lesnar then GnP'd to death.

haha being the heavyweight champion of the UFC is like being the smartest kid with down syndrome

Mir by submission, again. It will be by Penis Tattoo-plata. He will litterally submit the ink under the epidermal layer of Brocks chest and force the tap.

Mir is not going to get Lesnar in another leg/ankle lock. Lesnar isn't that stupid. How in the world would you ever get a kimura on Lesnar, he is too good of a wrestler for that. You aren't going to armbar that freak of nature either. Guillotine, please.....rear naked choke, Lesnar has no neck.Triangle from the bottom, I predict a knockout of Mir by extreme powerbomb if he tries it.What the hell does that leave, standup?That looks like a no go givin how fast and powerful Lesnars shoots are.Not only that but he was scary fast with his hands, people lost sight of that given Herrings flipping clear over. Watch that match again, and watch how fast the puch that clipped Randy came. No giant swede should have that fast of hands. I think that low outside leg kicks are the answer to Lesnar, with that wrestlers stance it is his only weakness. BUT, you better keep your effin hands up and watch for that overhand right. I predict Lesnar by knees to the body and hammer fists to the head, round one.

anyone else excited for Yoshida vs Wolff? who doesn't want to see 2 guys who suffered vicious beatings in their last outing go at each other to save their jobs....no takers?...yeah didn't think so...

I'm fighting on the card boys!

I just want to know if Lesner has learned how to pronounce Frank's name, or are we going to have to listen to him hype his fight against some guy named 'Mur' like the first time they fought.

Here's how it's gonna go down folks:
Round 1:
Lesnar comes racing out of corner with a flying knee, Mir dodges it and crotch-chops him. The crowd is going crazy. Lesnar smiles as he flips Mir off. They start sizing each other out. After a couple of minutes of striking, Mir puts his right hand up, daring Lesnar to challenge him in a game of mercy. They connect hands, Lesnar gets the better of him as Mir is on his knees. The bell ends the round. Lesnar wins the round.
Round 2:
Mir races out and spears Lesnar for a takedown. The crowd is going nuts. Mir is throwing some heavy bombs and hard knees to the body. Lesnar, picks Mir up and is setting up an F5. Mir gets out of it and lands on his feet, but is clotheslined by Lesnar. Lesnar picks up Mir's left leg and locks in a Figure-Four. Mir is tossing and turning, and manages to turn around, thus reversing the hold, and applying pressure to Lesnar's legs. Lesnar is trying to hold off as the crowd counts down the round, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Lesnar holds off. Mir wins the round.
Round 3: Both heavyweights come out looking exhausted. Mir has his hands on his knees. Lesnar is dripping sweat. Lesnar puts his hand out for Mir to shake. The crowd is screaming; advising Mir that it's a trick. Mir puts his hand out, when Lesnar reaches forward, Mir pulls his hand back and runs it through his hair. the crowd is going insane. Mir and Lesnar lock up, Mir lands some knees in the clinch. Lesnar is rocked. Mir smells blood and comes forward with a flying knee. Thanks to Fedor, Lesnar remembers that an overhand right can beat a flying knee any day, and clocks Mir. Mir is on the mat, trying to recover. Lesnar races in and lands in Mir's guard. Mir recovers and slaps on a triangle and secures an armbar. Just as Lesnar is about to muscle out of the hold, Steve Mazzagatti calls for the bell. This fight is over!!! The crowd looks almost as pissed off as Lesnar. Lesnar didn't tap. He walks to the fence of the cage, looks at a smirking Dana White, and spits on him.
Aftermath: Dana sends Brock packing. Brock retires from MMA. And UFC 98 goes down in history as the Las Vegas Screwjob.

Or...

Brock knocks Mir out in the first round.

Both guys can win this fight. I'm interested to see where the fight will go. With Mir's striking, I'm really interested to see Lesnar's chin, because it seemed pretty solid vs. Randy.

Huston Alexander? Why the hell is he still fighting for the UFC?

Brock Lesnar got this, he will destroy Mir. Also, only a flamboyent homosexual by the name of Ricardo who wears silver skin thight shirts and sparkles or any of the guys who posted a comment above can look at a sword and twist it into an erect penis in their head, then giggle about it. You homos.

i hate to say it, but brock's gonna win.
as much as i want to see mir knock him out, i think brock's gonna pull it off.
via tantrum style punches.

Sounds like a pretty good card! I'm psyched for Hughes vs Serra. FINALLY!

I don't know what to make of Mir vs Lesnar 2. Mir looked pretty damn convincing in his fight against Nog. His striking looked great. Lesnar pretty much destroyed Couture in pretty easy fashion. I guess my way to pick this would be to see how they would compare to a common opponent. In this case, I'd pick Couture.

So, we already know what Lesnar did to one of the UFC's best, Randy Couture. And he beat him with vicious striking. So if Mir took on Couture, who would win? I think Mir would win, but I think he would have a harder time with Randy and Couture would probably get Mir onto the ground. So using this foolish logic, I'd say that Lesnar will beat Mir.

LESNAR:
+ Improved striking and experience in the ring
+ Will squish you with his massive body
- Questionable jiu jitsu defence
- Can be overly aggressive

MIR:
+ Way improved striking
+ Awesome ground game
- Overconfident?
- Will have difficulty defending against "lunchbox size" hands

@the glza- oh I agree Nog has taken to many beatings and its starting to catch up with him. Also I have heard that Nog is going to be fighting Randy at UFC 101 so maybe we would be looking at a possible Randy/Brock or Mir/Nog rematch for the HW title in the not to far off future? ?

The only measure I use for predicting the winner is asking "Has either of the fighters punched Heath Herring so hard that he did a backward somersault?"

If the answer is yes, I go with that guy.

Lessnar by GnP round 2

mayhem: mir is not an easy win, but the nog that fought mir was a shell of the nog that fought fedor.

lesnar by hugeness. also he will knock mir out, catching him in gnp and bouncing his head off the mat with hammerfists.

@Rory1313 - you know Mir was the HW champ untill his accident and never lost the belt in the ring? Why would you think he isnt enigmatic enough to be fighting for the title? He did beat a guy that was never stopped before up untill that point?
Even Fedor couldnt stop him in 3 fights.

I think Lesner gets KO'd by Mir, second round. For two reasons: First off, Lesner isn't going to push this fight as much as he did the first one, and secondly, Mir's striking looked abso-fucking-lutely brilliant against Big Nog, and I don't think Lesner's done enough stand-up training to really stand a chance against Mir on the feet.

Also: For some reason the George Roop Vs. Dave Kaplan sounds like a loser gets fired match? Anyone else smell a Roop upset and a Kaplan going home party?

I think Lesnar looses an arm this time around.

Hmm. This one will be good. For entertainment value at least.
Im a firm believer in the fact that Lesnar should NOT have been able to fast-forward himself to owning the belt, although he's a monument. He's a huge milestone that fighters have to focus hard on conquering. The reason why he's there I suppose is so we can watch our favourate fighters being pushed to their absolute limits, hard and fast. And deep...

I also think Mir isnt an enigmatic enough fighter to be challenging Lesnar in this line up.. But thats just my opinion.

Irvin will not make weight.

auzzy is right lol

Mir Mir Mir Mir Mir Mir Mir Mir

(Mr. Mir looks weird when you type it.)

it really does look like a penis is on his chest. Like its racing to get to his mouth or sumthin.

Hughes vs Serra? Oh yeah, I think I remember they didn't like each other or something.

I'm pumped for this fight

Mir/Lesner is a tuff one to call at this point.
I would have to side with Mir after what he did to Big Nog, but Brock is getting better as we saw in the fight with Randy. Still though I like Mir in this rematch.
Also if it goes down I am taking Serra in his fight with Hughes and in the
James Irvin vs. Drew McFedries someone is going to get knocked the hell out!
Oh and I want Frankie to beat Sherk if only since he is from NJ!

not first
