He lost a lot of weight
He looks much leaner. Classic sign of a serious illness
leaner?

to the death, georges.

agreed
he has lost weight in the face which means the rest of his body also

it was a play off of 'leaner' he simply chanced 1 letter. let up on him.

Roberto
Actually your right on that one, tons of people misspell his name, so could be either way. Lol not to mention in my, what, 10 word post I typed ‘chanced’ instead of ‘changed’.
Whoops.
by daniel worby on Dec 17, 2009 9:41 AM EST via mobile up reply actions
I hope whoever fights him really works the body.
That would be a solid tactic.
Good point JRE, that could be lethal, especially if he’s push too quick by the UFC to make a comeback.
by Alpha Male. on Dec 17, 2009 12:05 AM EST up reply actions
I really doubt the UFC will push him to make a quick comeback.
They are losing money now without him but imagine if he was out for good, not good for business. Plus I don’t think Brock will let anyone push him around IMO.
wow!
i can see carwin blast his intestines that way alph
by candyce (formerly known as gaara) on Dec 17, 2009 2:29 AM EST up reply actions
Carwin would never do that. He has too much respect for the large intestine, which is the greatest intestine in the world, to punch it.
Good times and riches and son of a bitches
I've seen more than I can recall.
P4P best intestine...way better than the small intestine

You'll have to remind me, who went to the hospital the first two times they fought?
Not only for one day anymore Sarah. LOL
you really love Brock huh?
what are you his cousin, boyfriend or something?

Why do Mir fans talk so much shit. You guys really show your man crushes by supporting a guy that barely beat Brock in the first fight and got SMASHED in the second.. its very cute true love i guess. Where does this Mir support come fom especially against Brock.. Gotta be the hate
by The real ZACK on Dec 17, 2009 12:49 AM EST up reply actions
why assume we're mir fans
I simply don’t like brock. It has nothing to do with Mir. Anyone that beats Brock is cool by me. I have a long list of reasons I dislike Brock, but bringing up any of them will result in an endless argument, so ill just leave it at that.
by daniel worby on Dec 17, 2009 7:57 AM EST via mobile up reply actions
I’m on you Worby. Keep that shit to yourself or face some serious verbal consequences.
Good times and riches and son of a bitches
I've seen more than I can recall.
ya okay
If you’d like to have a talk about it I’m down. If you even in the slightest think I’m intimidated by your ‘verbal consequences’ you are sadly mistaken.
Just rather have a debate about it. But a lil kid argument. Have at er’ if you feel you need to vent.
by daniel worby on Dec 17, 2009 11:59 AM EST via mobile up reply actions
Worby, I got that sweater Marc Laimon was wearing...
I remember you liked it too. 190 Bucks. Not a good deal. But, It is the single greatest poker sweater I’ve ever seen. Wearing it right now.
Not only for one day anymore Sarah. LOL
I’m just messin’ with ya. But I will refute any anti-Brock statements with no name-calling. OK, maybe a little name-calling.
Good times and riches and son of a bitches
I've seen more than I can recall.
Pdub & Jay
Pdub,
Otay, good. I wasn’t sure from your wording if I was in for a long day or not. Lol. Arguing is fine by me I’m sure me you and Jay will have tons on any Lesnar related news to come.
Jay,
So you got it for 190? Did you see the others? I bookmarked the page but didn’t go for it yet. There is 2 or 3 others that are equally as cool for star wars bunny hugs, that I’m seriously considering.
Ps: have either of you heard the term bunny hug, for hoodies? I thought many Canadians called them this. I always have. Maybe its a Saskatchewan thing…
by daniel worby on Dec 17, 2009 12:40 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
I saw a few others....Darth Vader, Jason from Friday the 13th, Joker
But I like this one. Plus I didn’t have any hoodies with white in them. I was on that thread with the bunny hugs talk, I mentioned I had never heard it before.
We will have tons of debates on Brock, Mir, Carwin, Fedor. Seeing as how there aren’t many Brock huggers on this site, PW, Puck head and I will probably be the ones doing most of the Brock defending.
Yeah 190, at Ecko. Can’t wait to stare a motherfucker down across the poker table. He/She isn’t going to know what hit them. LOL.
Not only for one day anymore Sarah. LOL
Bunny hug haha
Like I said in the last bunny hug thread, if anyone said that to a hoodie in the UK they’d get stabbed.
"If you’re a fight fan, I don’t know how you don’t think that that card is a great card…." Dana White on UFC 108
20%: Percentage of MMAManiacs buying UFC 108 (I guess the other 80% aren't "real fight fans" according to Dana)
EXactly as I said
I also said that the Mir support Must come from the HATe. I guess guys are mad that Brock is bigger stronger and came from pro wrestling, he truly shows that freak athletiscism can over come anything.
BTW I hope Mayorga destroys Din and James Toney gives mma a try.. Superior boxer with take down defense < MMA fighter

Not gonna happen bits
As much as jay has been pissing me off lately, I’ll have to agree with him here. How can you watch what lesnar did to him last time and think mir has a chance.
Mir beat him the first time and rocked him the 2nd
I don’t necessarily think Mir will win but to say Mir has no chance is ridiculous
And then God said "Let there be light," to which Chuck Norris replied, "say please."
I like mir and think he is one of the best hw fighters out there, but he has little chance of beating lesnar ever again.
hahaha!
are u sure ur an mma guru??? mir is one of the best fighters and he has a little chance of beating lesner?
so u mean, cock is somewhat unbeatable??
talk about two clowns fighting each other…jesus..
by candyce (formerly known as gaara) on Dec 17, 2009 2:31 AM EST up reply actions
Thats correct and Mir or whoever Brock will face will be a well desrerved contender
Brock will have to face most likely the winner of Mir, Carwin, NOG and Cain and for not fighting for almost a year their chances are a little better but the safe bet is still on Brock because he won’t come back unless he is ready to go 110% and his training should more than make up for his lack of fighting as his training is more grueling than the actual fight.
mir got lucky in the first firght and got crushed in the second.
rocked him??? he landed one clean shot and lesner took it well. so well in fact that he knocked mir out forty seconds later with vicious ground and pound. these are facts.
by Conan the Barbarian on Dec 17, 2009 2:40 AM EST up reply actions
Brock beat him the first time and lost, he dominated the 2nd and won.
Mir has a chance any HW has a chance to land something big, but Junior Dos Santos, Carwin, Nogueira would have a bigger shot than Mir at beating Brock.
With his size, Mir will just easily gas...
and as for Lesnar, he should better get back in game shape, and Mir won’t catch him in this rubber match…

i like Mir's chances as well
Especially with the extra weight. Not to say he can push Lesnar around, I’m sure that isn’t the case. But, it can help to negate it.
Ps: Lesnar fans are just as ruthless when posting on a Mir thread as any people who dislike Lesnar on a Brock thread.
by daniel worby on Dec 17, 2009 8:01 AM EST via mobile up reply actions
You like Mir's chances against Brock?
Was your cable out in July? Did you miss UFC 100?
Not only for one day anymore Sarah. LOL
You read my posts to Sarah on yesterdays post?
She was hardly offended was she? Was only taking the piss! OOPS!!
I"m no Ned Flanders punk!!
I don't know what was going on there
I think it was someone else who bothered her. It wasn’t you tkkpal. You just joked about it once, I think someone was bothering her and saying she isn’t a girl. Not us pal. We good.
Not only for one day anymore Sarah. LOL
no my cable didnt cut out
Jay,
Will you ever understand reasoning? Do you get that other people feel different then you do about certain situations? I have done all I can to avoid getting in the way of your Brock posts, because when it comes to Brock and you, there is no opinions. So, I try to voice my debates elsewhere on this subject.
I can see both sides of the argument and the reasonings behind supporting either fighter. The odds heavily favor Brock and I don’t deny this. But that in no way means I have to cheer for him, nor that I can’t see some positives from the underdog (Mir).
If you would like to discuss it, I’m all ears. But you are quite sensitive towards Brock and I understand this, as that’s the way I am with GSP and FEDOR.
Have a good’er.

"i like Mir's chances as well"
That is all I am talking about. I know that everyone has a chance in a fight against anyone. How can you admit a guy is the underdog, but like his chances? I don’t get that. Take the names Mir and Brock out of it. I don’t get how you can like the chances of a massive underdog at all.
Not only for one day anymore Sarah. LOL
massive underdog
Because, I have seen ‘massive’ underdogs pull through in the past. As much as everyone will feel he is a huge underdog (and he rightfully could be labeled as such), I feel that Mir is taking this much more seriously, and will prove to put on a much better fight for Brock then he did previously. The odds aren’t going to help my case. But until sunday after we won’t know if those odds were right or not.
I personally don’t consider him a ‘massive’ underdog. Simply an underdog. I myself would place the odds at:
+195 lesnar
-175 Mir
I’m gonna get torn up for that. Ha ha. Anyways its just my opinion and I value yours as well.
by daniel worby on Dec 17, 2009 12:06 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
Those odds make Lesnar the underdog. I think Lesnar would come in around -200 or -225 with Mir at around +140 or +150.
Good times and riches and son of a bitches
I've seen more than I can recall.
shit!
That’s exactly what I meant. I wouldn’t be surprised to see them higher but I feel +145ish Mir is fair and around -200 Lesnar.
Sorry about that.
by daniel worby on Dec 17, 2009 12:42 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
I'm not a gambler, unless it is personal bets with friends
So I don’t understand the +/- stuff either. We all knew what you meant though. That is all that counts.
Not only for one day anymore Sarah. LOL
I was taking the names and the history out of the equation though.
My point was how could you like the chances of any underdog? I know the pay out would be nice. But the statement you made was just weird. I know what you are saying, I’m not fighting with you on this one. Mir took both of his previous fights with Brock VERY seriously, his attitude hasn’t changed about Brock.
Not only for one day anymore Sarah. LOL
A lot of times underdog bets are great for people who actually follow the sport. Odds are based on where the bookies think the money will go, not on who is actually the better fighter. For example, if Tito was fighting Thiago Silva, a lot of U.S. money would likely come in on Tito since casual fans know who he is, even though Silva is the superior fighter. So people who know better could take a nice payout betting on Silva.
Good times and riches and son of a bitches
I've seen more than I can recall.
people are getting carried away with mirs latest victory against a shitty opponent what do you think lesnar would do 2 kongo
264 vs 280= gnp by the 280 pound guy.
ok bros heres the deal, mir’s put on 20 pounds of mass just to have a chance with lesnar. last time i checked brock cuts down to 265 and puts on 10 to 15 pounds back on when he enters the cage. mir was still 264 in his fight with kongo who was a lean 239. when they fight again lesnar will beat mir the same way he did last time by vicious gnp. mir will then get back on his bike and be done.
cool bros and dudes
Anyways, I was seriously under the impression that Mir also, cut down to make 265, hence weighing in at 264.5. Or else it was simply a coincidence. If anyone has some actual proof for or against this, I’d like to really know for my own curiousity.

Brock Dude
I think for health reasons Brocks going to change his diet and will never see more than 245 again….does that mean the end of his career? Doesn’t have to, the question is, did we just see the biggest, baddest Brock we’re ever going to see?.
Why?
Like, based on what evidence? Just a gut feeling?
by MMACrossfire on Dec 17, 2009 9:32 AM EST up reply actions
Doesnt matter
How much weight Mir puts on he still doesnt have the wrestlinhg or strength to compete. Randy was was less than Mir and still did a 100x better job at wrestling and matching Brock power than Mir ever has.. So to say this new and improved Frank Mir will be able to compete with Brock is impossible.
THE only way Mir has a chance is if this sickness REAlly REally took that much of a toll. Which could be a possiblity.
Not Exactly
Better believe Mir is working his wrestling defense. If Mir goes to the ground he’ll matchup better with Brocks strength and use more wrestling to avoid getting takendown (give him more time on his feet) or to get to his feet or good position to get a Jits hold…. Franky is a walking, talking Cesspool, Cockhead… but he’s a good gameplaner nowadays… it’s going to be a much more competitive fight.
mir compete w/lesnar
Just because you think it to be impossible for Mir to compete with Lesnar due to the new size of Mir being irrelevant in your eyes, doesn’t make it fact. Anything is possible. And this, my friend, isn’t even near impossible. In fact, its quite plausible.

this has got to be the weirdest 'first pic post surgery' ever
sitting behind a desk in some shitty office, holding up fight trunks like jared from subway, and sporting a jim ‘the anvil’ neidhart goatee
gotta' Luv MMA Fighters.
That’s what I like about MMA fighters, they’re just regular guys doing their thing… they’re just a buncha hard working athletes that want to be comfortable more than anything.
Did you read the original article?
Take a second and follow the link above. There are three pictures surrounded by an article with more information.

Lesnar looks bad
Reading the other comments makes me feel like I’m hitting the panic button, but Lesnar looks like he’s lost a lot of weight. I think the facial hair and loose clothes are fooling you guys. Im confident he can come back full force if he dosnt need major surgery, but he just looks weak in these pictures. Mayne he should fight James Tony as a warm up when he returns.
by DrewMoney$$$ on Dec 17, 2009 1:34 AM EST via mobile reply actions
Brock will come back and be his normal Ogre self
His cardio might take a toll though. This long a layoff always affects the gas tank no matter how much training someone does.
and please stop saying that Brock won the first fight and Frank got lucky, and all that. I agree the shenanigans Mazz pulled were sketchy but brocks hammerfists werent really doing that much damage. And as for lucky submissions, I dont really believe in them, unless youre fighting sean salmon cause he gives away his arms. Submitting smone is a completely legitimate way of winning a fight and thats what he did. Brock doesnt make any excuses as to why he lost.
no love for jiu jitsu?
dude.....i am
He looks like...
a former fatty holding up some oversized bottoms….
He doesn’t look bad at all… considering what he went/is going through. A beard always makes a face look fuller too!
