    Godfather bringing the good interviews:partie:

    Mir should dispose of Kongo easily. Mir is world class, he just can't beat Lesnar.

    I wouldn't say Mir is world class, but he should beat Kongo pretty easily.

    I really think Mir has overrated Jitzu. That or maybe the accident took more out of him than i thought.

    Frank would beat more than 90% of the HW's out there, that makes him world class but just like boxing the HW's aren't all that

    His jujitsu was good back in the day when he was fighting tank abbot exc...but in comparison to Big Nog ,Penn or even Maia,his BJJ looks basic.I don't think the accident has much to do with the way he's been fighting I think the sport has past him by.

    You really don't think Mir is world class? Besides Lesnar, I pick him against anyone in the UFC. Carwin would be another nightmare matchup for him. Outside the UFC, I pick him against everyone minus Fedor. That puts him top 5 HW in the world in my book, where do you have him?

    If Mir stands with Kongo, he's getting knocked out. He absolutely must get the fight to the ground.

    I am a big Mir fan. I agree that he is definitely Top 5 in the world at HW. I think there are plenty of HW's that could knock Mir silly, but I like Mir against most.
