Ah, very nice, I was wondering what this would happen. Definitely looking forward to this one, and I must say, if Mir is in the kind of shape he was in against Nogueira, I think he can and will beat Lesnar.

I would have called this post laughable a week ago, and I still doubt Mir's dedication, but I agree with you. How can you bet against the first man to ever knock out Big Nog.

[BDK]

Nog has a gym here now and I even called it where Mir would win just like how Lesnar would KO Couture and Rashad would beat Forest. I actually see Mir possibly beating Lesnar. My favorite thing from Mir's fight was a friend tells me how it looked like Mir was the one who had been training with Anderson Silva not Nog lmao.

[Demonoid]

You guys do understand that Mir has already tapped Lesnar quite easily,why any of you would see it going any differently,especially with Mirs improved standup baffles me. Will calling that post laughable a week ago is a ridiulous statement especially from a moderator of this forum....do you even watch MMA,follow it or understand it? That is about the 3rd borderline retarded post Ive seen you make in the MMA section,yet your a mod here.

And BDK are you serious...your friend is a little far off,b/c I didnt even see Mir utilize any Muay Thai that would make it look like he was training with Silva...he straight boxed Nog up...boxing and MT are 2 completely different artforms.

You have got to be kidding me. Yeah Mir tapped out Brock in his second fight, after getting beat on the whole time. Did the guy who beat up Couture look like the Same guy from the Mir fight to you? Lesnar is much improved, while Mir barely trains and hasn't shown an ounce of dedication, until the nog fight, ever since his accident. Anyone who thought that the Mir, who has shown up every time in the last 4 years, had a shot at winning again should stop drinking the kool aid and get over the fact that Lesnar is a former pro wrestler.

[Swinny]

Yeah, the only reason Mir beat Lesnar the first time is because Lesnar was just going in their full blast, and he got caught up, and Mir took the opportunity and locked in a submission, but Lesnar has gained a lot of experience since then, and something like that's not going to happen again. Like I said though, if Mir does actually keep up the training and everything he's been doing, and doesn't slack off, he has a great chance of beating Lesnar. Just gonna have to wait and see.

For someone who dont care about what I say,it sure was vital for you to right a 2 paragraph retort and threaten to delete my words...lol. Comparing Mir to Couture is like comparing apples to oranges....Couture is a wrestler who likes to utilize the clinch to wear his opponent down,besides Van Arsdale who has Randy ever taken down and submitted? When on the other hand Mir is BJJ practitioner who wants to get you on the ground and submit you. Of course Lesnar is going to look like a different fighter against different opponents,its the nature of the beast.

It wasn't Lesnar going in and blowing his wad that got him beat against Mir the first time,it was guy with no experience getting caught by a guy who has been training his entire life...I dont see how round 2 should be any differently.

Sure Lesnar was a great Amatuer and Collegiate wrestler,but that just doesn't add up to 20 years of JJ training,or even 20 years of boxing....yes he did KO a 46 year old fighter with a questionable chin who has been KO'd many times before,call me silly but I dont find that overly impressive. Actually in Round 1 Randy made Lesnar look bad,outstriking him and even taking the wrestler down,which Brock had to grab the fence to get back up.

I guess I deserve this for coming to a Pro Wrestling forum and talking against Brock,I cant expect cross-over fans to fully understand MMA,when in reality...most of you have only been watching for the past few years in between WWE PPV's.But in the end everyone is entitled to their own opinion...and obviously yours is Brock is God.

Thank you for posting and sharing your opinion. Have a blessed day.

You also...thanks

[the madscotsman]

lesnar'll crush mir. he'll slam him so hard he'll wake up dead

[Demonoid]

lesnar'll crush mir. he'll slam him so hard he'll wake up dead

Just like their last fight?

[the madscotsman]

aye. except this time mir wont have an incompetant ref to save him. watch the fight. mir had one piece of offence the leg lock that beat lesnar. and if the ref had done his job and restarted the fight in the same position the fighters were in when he stopped it (like he's soposed to) the mir wouldn't have got lesnar in the leg lock.

lesnar will crush him the same way he did heath herring and randy. and randy's much better than mir.

[Miss.Angela Angel]

Didnt brock already fight frank mir? wasnt that who he faced in his first fight?

[Demonoid]

You numbskull,the fight was restarted on the feet B/C Brock was DEDUCTED A POINT FOR FOULING MIR IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD.You dont restart a fight in the same position after a foul,and BTW it was a KNEEBAR not a LEGLOCK.

[the madscotsman]

ok, then let's talk about the fact that in an earlier fight a ref allowed a fighter to strike another fighter on the back of the head several times before only giving him a warning. Lesnar wasn't given the same amout of warnings(if any at all). and yes you are supposed to start the fight in the same position, otherwise why would there be talk of an incompetant ref.

even if you're right. lesnar has still had two more fights since then against better opponents and won convincingly.

oh and don't call me a numbskull ya ****.

Different ref different results...with Lesnars punching power you cant let any fouls go like that,they can change the outcome of the fight.And when a fighter is fouled and a point is deducted it is up to the fighter who was fouled to choose the restart.The only talk of an incompetent ref have been from Brock nutthuggers and not from true MMA fans or fighters that know the sport.He got caught in a kneebar(and a loose one at that) and tapped like a bitch,shit happens..its MMA. Now do you understand a little better there numbskull?

[LInk_of_time]

sry but gonna have to go with mir to win this one. all lesner has is his size. his speed is good but only for his size. mir is technical, he doesn't require speed only or power on time and a clear head.
