I agree Champ. Imagine how quickly Silva would crumble after a few hammerfists from Brock….I’d give Anderson about two punches, then it would be lights out. Mir is tougher than people think.

I’m no Mir ‘hugger either…I just think he’d walk through Anderson easily…I really do. So does Dana, or else he’d be willing to make this fight, and he’s not. This fight would ruin the reputation of his best fighter.

LOL. Props to Anderson that we are talking about him fighting 70 lbs out of his weight class. And even Dana is scared for GSP fighting 15 lbs out of his weight class.

Props to Silva for even having the debate.

Dana hasn’t made this fight because Mir is 2 weight classes above Silva.

Regardless of what happened in this hypothecical fight it wouldn’t “ruin” Silva’s rep, well only among idiots perhaps.

I wouldn’t move to heavyweight if i were Ando, it’s just dumb and there are plenty of amazing fights for him at 205 if he wants to continue fighting at that weight.

Brock wasn’t loading up like in the second fight. He was doing those masterbating shots on him which yea puffed him up but nothing serious. Once a solid beast goes through, he quits. Watch his Ian freeman fight for example. Also throwing subs while dazzed or out is just the body’s reaction due to all the drilling of technique done over the years. Watch and listen to Torres talk about the armbar was tried on Bowles even though we could all tell he was gone. Anderson would put a solid one right on Mir’s nose or chin.

Mir’s skill and technique isn’t anywhere near his peak as Silva’s so weight difference shouldn’t be the problem. Mir’s isn’t exactly great at stand-up or wrestling so I don’t see how he expects to win.

now lesnar embarassed mir and silva would finally make him relize he belongs behind a mic in wec country

I honesytly think i hate frank mir more then almost every1 right now….he beats up a beat up nog on the feet and he thinks hes the #1 striker ever saying how he has so much power and how hes been dominating people….its jokes man

Now do you people realize why I cant stand Frank Mir, and BASH him every single day of my life?

Who the fock does he think he is? Do you know what would happen if he tried to stand with Anderson? He would be sleeping with the fishes in NO TIME!!!!

btw, I offered no predictions on the Randy/Nog fight but after watching the weigh ins last night…FOCK THAT, MOTHA FOCKING WAR NOGUIERA!!!!!! Wait till you people see the legendary performance that Big Nog has in store for us!!!!!!!

Alpha: now do you understand why I hate this silly prick?

everyone remember the vera/mur fight. AS is easily as big but way better than vera. it would almost be like an instant replay.

Mir’s not a good striker but he does have a lot of power. He def could not strike with AS but could probably take him down at get the sub. I seem to be one of the few who actually likes Mir on this site.

That’s right—WAR MIR.

I like them both, so I don’t want to see them go at it.

MIR ON THE WAY BACK!

John, don’t worry bro, you know that I’m always on your side when it’s concerning that irrelevant prick. He’s neck to neck with David Heat for the 2009 irrelevance award. Tito and Forrest aren’t nominated b/c Tito was injured and Forrest was stylistically, badly set up to lose.

Here is another great quote from Mir, about fighting people like Brock Lesnar:

"Honestly, I think big guys are easier to fight. They don’t move as fast, they get tired quickly and they’re not as technical…. If I want to sharpen my tools I have to work with somebody who’s not a sitting target like Forrest. Who moves around a lot, he’s extremely conditioned. He’s fast and can throw 300 punches compared to 30 punches a round. Forrest is my worst nightmare. Basically you have to go for broke and knock him out, and if you don’t he’s still going to be standing there coming after you…. There’s so many things going on in the fight. I think his (Brock’s) mind will be paralyzed because he’s having to deal with so many new elements."

Frank Mir is a smart guy.

One other excellent quote by Mir:

"I think that a lot of people realize that he was only 1-1, he had a .500 record in the UFC when he got a title shot…. I know at the end I’m going to be able to get a hold of him. There’s going to be a day of reckoning. So he’ll have to answer to me personally. There’s going to be no reporters or nobody to protect him…. Three or four years from now, if I decide to switch over into full time coaching, I would like to coach Brock. I see a lot of things that he’s done in his last couple of fights that I think are mistakes that are not really his fault, they’re maybe his trainer’s faults. How can he be so talented, an NCAA champion, probably one of the best wrestlers to come out of college in the heavyweight division, and still make some of the real basic balancing and footwork mistakes that he’s making right now?"

Mir is super talented!

The guys on here saying that Mir would walk through Anderson are stupid.

Guess what, Brock Lesnar would walk through Miguel Torres.

Oh yeah, and Bobb Sapp would probably beat up Uriah Faber.

Fedor would walk through GSP.

Wow. lets keep finding fighters who are wayyy out of weight classes to make fantasy fights.

Muhammed Ali vs Bruce Lee anyone?

Mike Tyson vs. Floyd Mayweather

ohhh let me join in

ermmm,

lesnar vs couture?
lesnar vs mir?
lesnar vs herring?

do you know lesnar vs couture was a 60lb difference on fight night, that is like GSP vs Couture

did i mention i hate brock lesnar?

I would bet large amounts of cash on Faber beating Sapp.

If only Mir could wrestle.

Randy by split decision. As sad as it is, NOG IS FINISHED!!! Even if he pulls out a win, his better days are past him. He has just been in to many wars!!! Time has not been good to him like it has to randy. I don’t even like couture, and want to see Nog go out with a win, but I am just being real here. He may still have the heart, but that does not matter if your body cant keep up!

Thank You Minotauro for the memories. You will go down in history as the greatest warrior to ever fight mma!!!

dangit… WRONG THREAD!!!

size matters these days in mma, that said, I respect Mir’s confidence, it’s 99% of the game (mental). I don’t get John’s hate for Mir, he’s a legit HW and will destroy Kongo. I also think this would be a close fight than you all think!

Kongo will land a good combo to knock Mir down, then convince himself that going to the ground with Mir is a wise decision. Mir by arm bar.

Closer,I could I forget… after all, before the Nog fight it was his only highlight that he had in his carreer. But yeah, I’m grateful.

Kev, P-Dud…
Who can really have a good assessment of this fight between two brainless. One think he’s a striker and the other one think he’s a wrestler but both are clearly delusional. I would said that with the athletic abilities of both fighters posess, well I got to go with Kongo. Kongo is stronger than Mir, got better shoots than Mir, better takedown and better striking than Mir. And I can almost say that he got better TD than Mir also. He got Mir completely out class in this fight.

I said it to Champ the other day… keep drinking the Mir’s kool-aid, guys, the expiration dates on the can is Dec 12, 2009.

I told you Alpha, it tastes great, you try some. Actually after Kongo, you should have a glass and come on the winning side.

kongo is terrible though!

Truely terrible!

True. Their natural weights are very similar…this fight is a legit possibility. If Frank could get it to the ground he would win and if it stayed standing anderson would win…simple as that.

yea, i’m almost 100% Randy’s got this one

Randy’s stand up sure showed him. Poor Nog.

You can always count on introvert for a laugh. From retarded MMAth like above or to his disliking of the big bad evil zuffa and all the conspiracies and nonsense that go with it.
