Here's a preview of Mir vs. Lesnar with a link after the first few paragraphs. I think Mir should win. But if it goes deep into the fight, it's hard to say.
January 22, 2008: Frank Mir is slated to take on former WWE star Brock Lesnar in his UFC debut at UFC 81 on February 2, 2008. Both fighters have questions to answer.
In other words, one fighter is going to be very unhappy after this one.
First, let’s talk about where Frank Mir was before he broke his femur in two places and tore all the ligaments in his knee in a motorcycle accident. At that time, Mir—the UFC Heavyweight Champion—could only be described as a very rare MMA athlete: A big guy that practiced Brazilian Jiu Jitsu with the same fluidity as much smaller men normally do.
Frank Mir knew every submission in the book. He was very flexible for a big man. But there were two things beyond this that also served to set him apart:
1. Mir always came into fights looking to finish them. He didn’t mess around with the normal feeling out process. Rather, he aggressively looked for submissions, and this is why six of his eight pre- injury victories came in the first round.
