What happens if Nog cant submit Mir? Im not gona count Mir out in this fight. Im not a fan of Nog so I hope Mir takes it! And I hope Mir submits him!!!

I think Nog will just out box Mir but if they do go to the ground Nog will win anyway! At best Mir can nuetralize Nog on the ground but he has No shot in getting the upper hand

JV, I like Mir and will be rooting for him, but it is very hard to see a scenario where he can win. I don’t think he has a chance on the feet. If it gets to the ground and Nog makes a small mistake Mir will have to capitalize on it immediatly. He might be able to sneak out a submission if he can stay composed and wait for a mistake, but I wouldn’t bet on it.

Unfortunately I agree BNF.

That aint going to happen. Nog is probably one of the best MMA submission HWs in the world. Mir is over-rated a bit imo.

nice video

Nog is a better boxer than Mir, a better BJJ practitioner, and flat out can take much more abuse.

by Aaron_W on Sep 17, 2008 4:18 PM EDT reply actions

I’ll agree with the abuse part! The rest is yet to be seen?

would you like to make a bet on this one jv?

He has fought a lot tougher people than Mir has and has subbed people and looked a lot more dangerous in the process.

I think because is more laid back than overly aggressive will mean that Frank may last a round but Im pretty sure he will get subbed before the end of the 2nd round.

Noguiera will be the Heavyweight champ when all is said and done and I dont see anyone stopping him including Randy and Brock.

As for Mir….don’t make me laugh.

Hey, his English has improved a whole lot!

Dec 31?? If she’s going to be reporting for Sherdog she better have her facts straight, unless the UFC is going to do a card 4 days after UFC 92.

I am not a fan of NOG and I HOPE Mir takes this fight, he’s got a good chance, but I think Nog takes it. I would love to see Randy vs Nog…the matchup we should have gotten in the first place!!!

by Chadx23 on Sep 17, 2008 4:43 PM EDT reply actions

Well if Mir beats Nog (which I hope he will) And Brock beats Randy (which is very possible) Then we might see Nog/Randy! Or if Randy (which I’ll never count out) wins and so does Nog, then we’ll still get to see it?

by JV on Sep 17, 2008 5:08 PM EDT up reply actions

Nog is STILL calling Randy out! Randy is a Bitch IMO for ducking Nog like this. He cant run for ever!

by john on Sep 17, 2008 5:30 PM EDT up reply actions

How is Randy ducking Nog? Brock is a much more dangerous opponent IMO. I think Randy would have an easier time with Nog than with Brock.

by JV on Sep 17, 2008 8:06 PM EDT up reply actions

this interview was obviously done before the randy resigning. i think nog will come across very well on this seasons tuf and will gain alot of new fans. cant wait for tonight!
