Frank Mir was overhyped in here.

He beat Lesnar,Kongo and a shot NOG big deal.

 

I agree. And nog really is so obviously shot, he is not close to the fighter he was.

To be fair, Mir looked ok in those fights (well, 2 of them) - but Mir is nothing special, and doesn't know what the fuck to do when someone starts punching him.

 

AS MWS said no plan B. Vera showed this. MIR always finds a way to lose the big fights IMO.

 

A very green Lesnar and a very shot NOG. Kongo IMO isn't in their league.

 

I'm not just saying this now.I've been saying this for a long time and I was getting tar and feathered for saying it in this forum.Well here yours apple pie bitches.

 

2-26-2010 "Carwin will beat Mir IMO so I doubt it matters anyway. The only reason to match Mir with Lesnar again will be the sake of a Triology."

 

Exactly but there was posters in here who thought that was something special:shit:

Mir's been shot for a looooong time,hell an argument can be made that he's behind in MMA times as well.

 

Mir is a top 15 HW. I wouldn't call him horrible. But I have never thought he was great.

 

Mir is solid, but he's just running into some monsters.

 

For some reason the kongo fight made me a believer of mir for awhile there...

 

Go and re-read the fight prediction thread. A lot of people picked Carwin.

 

Mir doesn't know how to take a punch, he's soft, it was pathetic for a big man like him to get dropped by this. Expected him to lose to Carwin and alway's thought he was way overrated too

 

I have been saying for a while that Mir was overrated. The win over a completely shot Nog made some of the more ignorant fans think he was the shit. Mir goes into a shell when caught in an onslaught. He has always been that way. Carwin/Lesnar is gonna be great!

 

He dominated both of them and I think that's why I personally gave Mir too much praise. Well, that and the fact that he was actually showing up in shape.

But in the end, he thinks way too much and has a limited chin.

 

agREED...

Carwin EASILY Muscled Mir to the Cage & CONTROLLED him in the Clinch, Prior to Damn Near REMOVING his Head from his Shoulders w/those Left Uppercuts...Mir LOOKED to have Gained Strength, but it DIDN'T Show Up On Fightnight...



REED:hammert:

 

Anyone else impressed with how powerful and angry Carwin threw those LEFT uppercuts?

Amazing for a righty.

 

Carwin vs Lesnar will be a goddamn war.

 

I'd be surprised if he takes Carwin down right away.I think for the first time in his career he's going to have to work for it.
