Frank Mir Interview w/ MMAScoops.com! Pre-UFC 81!

[fighter4christ7]

Yeah I don't think that maybe friends afterwards worked out too well lol

[y2taner]

id love to see frank mir vs randy courtourer

[f9hunter]

LMAO "so you guys can be buddies"

ye damn right their "buddies" lmao

[musicvidsgalor]

1 of the main reasons i like frank mir is because he seems like a nice guy and you could go and get a pint with him or something but brock lesnar is such a douch in all of his intervews

[voodoochild127]

im a big mir fan, but he went pretty far with the shit talking before 100. you look at a guy like brock lesnar, and if you talk shit about that guy and have to step into the cage with that guy, you have to be ready for what you get. i wish the postfight at 100 wouldve been different and they couldve been cooler about things. i doubt we see a rematch though. brocks got carwin, cainV, and then probably big nog.

[jarvis911]

I cant see why people think Mir is arrogant, if you listen to him during interviews hes actually a very humble and down to earth guy

[caseygay]

word

[powerofawarrior]

How's your face Mir? LMAO!!!!!!!!!!

[THARSHTILDEATH]

Frank Mir is a Cool Guy

[serzh123aaa]

The interviewer is prlly gay, everytime frank says something he says i agree

[mmagamer4life]

frank mir is a badass i love him

[emulator900]

mir's going to whoop lesnar's ass the second time too so nyyyyyeeaaahhhh

[MidnightTapOut]

I wouldn't brag if I was Mir. Because Brock was a beginner when he beat him by submission. But let him fight Brock NOW! Brock will pwn Mir so bad..

[dusknoiry]

becuz frank mir fights like a real mma fighter where as brock fights like a pissed off gorilla.

Tbh if they had another rematch frank knows what to expect and wud kick his ass.

If you like brock ovr frank then your a WWE loving nob.

[Hussain90]

actually i used to b a huge wrestling fan up until wwe went pg...then it became gay...but the point is i never liked lesnar...neither in wrestling nor in UFC cuz he's arrogant, self centered and a sore loser which he admits to btw.....and yea ur right frank mir is much more professional in his fights than brock lesnar wud ever b...ahahahhha (pissed off gorilla)

[rh086654]

I got a lot of respect for Frank Mir... i like that he's very humble.

[kr3w10169]

the only reason y mir won this fight is cuz of that ankle lock lesner kicked the shit out of him tho got alot of better hits in and then says that lesner punched him in the back of the head mir is a pussy compared to lesner

[Xerox20077]

Not really, Mir is an animal. He owned Lesnar, MMA isn't all about "kicking the shit" out of people.

[BlackstarSirius]

First of all it was a kneebar. Second of all, go back to WWE. MMA isn't about who's the biggest, meanest guy, it's about the fighter with the most prowess. Any trained ape can hit someone, but if Brock Lesnar charges in there and leaves himself wide open for submissions, Hell yeah he's gonna be forced to tap out.

[nubemuffin]

mir is a good guy, i dont know why so much people hate him.

[SunDragon93]

Lesnar didn't stand a chance. I don't care how big or strong he is, Mir is better.

[kiwimangum]

Wish I could buy Mir a beer. Talk to the dude, respect him so much.

[tusepagliacco]

Brock was stronger and just as fast. He would have won. It really was a mistake on his part which kinda was luck on Frank's that he was able to get him in the ankle lock. Brock knew he had there, hence he tapped out waaaaay calm.

[CaseFiji]

He would have won if.........what? If he wasn't facing a black belt in bjj who just needs his opponent to make one simple mistake in order to win?!! Yeah, then that might be true. The fact that he made that mistake so early in the match as opposed to 2 rounds in when he is fatiguing just signifies that he has alot of work still to do if he plans on being more than just a gimmick. Frank's skill might seem like luck to the biased eye but, given his track record, it's far from luck.

[showtimethegreat]

atleast someone is a real mma fan and knows what hes talking about, i agree exactly

[RocklandChronicles]

LOL I don't care what you morons say, that fight should have been stopped when Lesnar was pounding the shit out of Mir and Mir was trying to cover up.

[kevoktin]

like you said, mir was trying to cover up...the fight should not have been stopped unless he quit trying to cover up bro...

[RocklandChronicles]

I've seen fights stoped because covering up was their last attempt to stay in it and they were still getting pummled. Thats what happened here.

[kevoktin]

look at the rules, the fight goes on as long as they ARE defending themself, unless they tap or theres a bad cut like i said. What is an example of a fight in the UFC where a fight is stop due to covering up...people cover up all the time while they are trying to escape someones side control or mount...not sure what you expect them to do...

[mmamaster971]

they stop a fight when the fighter is incapable of fighting back. if you have enough left to cover up, you most likely can fight back.

[poonedja]

your so right man, people think he was getting dominated the whole fight but thats what mir does he sits back focused and wait for the right moment and in 3 seconds the fights done! in my opinion he is the best submissionist in the ufc

[RocklandChronicles]

his track record of what? Cracking under pressue? LOL He lost to Brandon Vera for christ sake

[iamdogxspit]

Frank Mir is one of the classiest fighters ever. He shows proper respect to those before him and that makes him awesome. *not to metion he kicks ass! hehe. He's well spoken, smart, and seems to be AT home in his own skin.

[H3LRaZoR]

The Cerebral Assassin just confirms my belief and support to this guy. I mean He went up against a monster and came out on top and no one can take that away from him

[zfOrGIvInGz]

lol hitting in the head..he didn't even hit brock...lol what a fucking cock sucker...

[truchox]

frank used to be good....his not anymore....he just said that he wanted to go toe to toe with BROCK? look wat happen to him....BUT his good at submissions...one of best in the heavyweight division....but thats all his got know.....he sounds like a good guy but lucky he did that submission or he would've lost....

[drexsyl7]

its what he does,he knew brock would come out like a banshee and when a fighter loses composure they make mistakes.Mir won fair and square.

[steve964]

yehh but ur forgetting thatt brock has very limited expeirnence in mma just wait a bit and he'll become one of the best, he just showed the world wat hes capable of

[mikestylz96]

Yeah, I think Brock did pretty good for his first time. It was a classic battle of power vs. technique. He just didn't know the submission game very well. That was a sick knee bar Frank caught him with though. I want to see a rematch after Brock gains some more experience, lets see if Frank can pull it off again.

[mikestylz96]

Frank's a smart guy, Brock's a meathead.

[mikestylz96]

The fight worked out exactly the way Frank predicted. No matter what, Brock would take him down, if Frank threw kicks or not. He knows Brock's gonna push the pace. If Brock makes a mistake, then he's gonna capatilize and finalize, which is what happened. Finalize is a Jiu-Jitsu term for submission. I see Frank Mir vs Noguera in the works, what an excitiing fuigth that would be!

[steve964]

yehhh noguera would winn i dnt seee frank mir becoming heavy weight champ but saying that i dnt seee noguera holding on to the belt a long time,

[wathefuckisupwitthat]

lesnar get caufg by the lack of experience

bas rutten would have said: its so easy to escape!

he looks good in fact

even with a dick on his chest;)

[50vulcanbmg]

I would tap out to a leg lock like that. Knee injuries are for life and are not easily fixed if the damage done to them is really bad. Mir won but seeing his battered face in the locker room interview. Wow.

[mload042]

Better to die on your feet then live on your weak ass back.

[illicit243]

i would love to see frank mir whoop on kimbos black azz with out a doubt kimbo would get knocked out

[woodyee]

Mir tapped him out with an ANKLE LOCK!!! Lesnar's LAME!!!!

[rampageatdawn]

lesnars lame??? he came in for his second ever fight against frank mir. like the top heavyweight in ufc. he snapped sylvias arm in half. he came and just handled him till a shitty reff call. you telling me tank,tim sylvia, all them are lame. mir is just really great and experienced. lesnar lacks experience

[bgbadwlf]

no punches to the back of the head isn't a shitty ref call, its the rules, maybe he should've have payed attention to them

[heathergarrettt]

Dude i fucking Love this guy Humble and a great fighter

[bgbadwlf]

I've met him in person, he's awsome

[rampageatdawn]

yeh a smack to the back of the head ONLY because mir spun around trying to avoid it. unintentinal i know the rules. and EVERY other back of the head shot in history of ufc starts out as.. "hey watch the back of the head" while they fight. they never jump in for the first offence time out stand them up and reduce a point all in one.

[rampageatdawn]

there was NO initial warning. and think about it. mir was pretty much going to be done in the first 20 seconds. and i think that on lesnars second fight is amazing. sure he lost due to inexperience but he kicked some ass before hand. people like tank abbott have faught for years. even sylvia was a champ. and mir beat abbott in like 40 seconds. and snapped sylvias arm in half. lesnar handled him in his 2nd!!! fight. he soon will be DOMINANT. he faught like the BEST. frank mir!! he lost but owned

[mma0tomars]

If the ref didn't stop the fight because brock hit mir in the back of the head, brock would have finished him. Mir got a break

[multomata]

very cool guy..

[gidva]

Mir is a nice guy bjj black belt.

I just think that Lessnar is too big of a guy for him.

[kafir10]

WRONG!!!!

BJJ is designed to beat people like Lesnar.

[peternasa]

you are right. BBJ is designed to beat wrestling

[gidva]

I know

[jr0741]

Mir is the man! He will come out on top tonight for sure.

[reptilianshifter]

You gotta respect how down to earth and respectable Mir is. He is an excellent representative of mma and hopefully a future champsion (again). WAR MIR!

[pauliesaf]

Mir is a cool guy

[Gamingaccess]

Hahahaha very funny how that person passes by!!!

[kb7787]

Mir can't match Lesnar's strength, but in the same breath Lesnar can't match Mir's technique and experience. Will be interesting to see how Lesnar handles the moment. I got to go with Frank on this one.

[Bencytong]

WAR MIR! Can't ask for a better candidate for champion. Respectful, insightful and to top it off, fucking BADASS! Two fights to the title.

[Forkfoot]

Super cool fuckin' dude.

[pisseyeball]

Imagine Lesnar with Franks training...

[emulator900]

unstoppable911:

even if lesnar didn't win I still respect him for having the balls to show up and make a serious go at it

[gazsmash]

respect to both fighters! i just wanna see one hell of a scrap!

[DetKimble23]

Snap his arm MIR!!!!

[lesnarUFC]

yea same lol

[252Dazz252]

I really hope Brock wins at UFC but for some reason have have doubts.

[lesnarUFC]

i like you mir

down to earth guy

[WHATEVERJUSTREGISTER]

Yea I i agree, he looks like a cool guy.. But sorry Frank, I just wan't Lesnar to win.
