I also see Vera decimating Mir. I think Mir's best days are behind him, and he'll gas soon, which will cause Vera to kick his head off. Bad matchup for Mir.

Vera is going to be the HW champ, and won't it be nice to have an exciting fighter up at the top. I bet he could put on some good matches with guys like AA, Chieck Kongo, and Rashad Evans.

I agree when Mir is in shape. If he comes out looking like a fat piece of s*** like he did last fight, I don't see him standing a chance.

thats what they said when he fought pa de pano..and that didnt turn out very well..brandon might shatter that leg frank messed up and retire him in shape or not..brandon has some of the hardest kicks in mma...he's here in maryland now getting in some training and one of the guys that works out with told me he's never felt anyone kick as hard as brandon kicks..mir is in big trouble..not to mention brandon is a good grappler..he learns directly from master lloyd..that says alot..

ah man this is gonna be good. Yeah man I concur if Frank is in shape he has an excellent chance at defeating the truth. But I can see vera ending with strikes to though I dont think vera could knock out with a punch. but he could do it with a knee or kick though. If Frank plans on winning this he is got to take it to the ground quick and put a submission before vera begins to find his rythmn awesome fight im lookin forward to it

I'm really looking forward to this fight.
Vera hasn't really fought any good submission guy's (at least not in the UFC), just strikers. If Mir intends to strike than he could be in serious trouble. But if Mir gets him to the ground which I'm sure he'll have no problem doing considering his skills (thats assuming he gets back to his old self). If he does than a submission win is highly probable. But Vera is also good on the ground, but not at the level of Mir. I think this will be the sleeper fight at 65. I'm hoping Mir pulls it off.
