    Frank Mir's story is a shame. He was a very impressive fighter before the accident. His lack of dedication to training is his own fault though.</p>

    I can't wait to see how legit Brock is. His first fight was a farce in K-1, Mir will be a real test and if Brock ain't careful he'll get submitted.</p>

    Mir got rocked by Vera but don't assume he is a pushover at this point in his career.</p>

    Mir is an expert with submissions and I think he is a good test for Lesnar. I think Brock will probably TKO him but Mir could easily catch him in a kimura or a triangle choke off of his back.</p>

    I was expecting to see Lesnar face Irish Jake O'Brien so this is a nice surprise.</p>

    Has to be under 265 or slightly over, that's the max weight for UFC HW div.</p>

    He's also gonna need clean pee. I never thought he roided but ya just never know nowadays.</p>

    I think the need for clean pee is showing who was legit and now in Pride too :-)</p>

    exactly. Loads of big tough guys think they're hard because they work out and their built like a brick house, but then they get punched and find out they don't like getting hit.</p>

    Good MMA fighters practice being dominated and work their defence and don't panic when they're not in a dominant posistion. Will be interesting to see how Brock reacts to being in a bad spot.</p>
