I think Mir has to many nightmares, in wich Fedor is kicking his ass, otherwise, i don't get it.
In vvery interview he gives, he has something to say about Fedor. Either it's an obsession for him, or the UFC are pushing him to trash talk.
If he realy wants Fedor, he should talk to Dana, to let him go in Strikeforce for one fight to take on Fedor. The UFC did it before with Chuck, when they let him fight in Pride.

“No disrespect to Rogers but other than Arlovski he hasn't really beaten anyone noteworthy. I don't see how beating a guy like that solidifies Fedor as being number one pound for pound. I would still rank guys like Anderson [Silva], Miguel Torres and St Pierre above Fedor as far as pound for pound rankings go. Do I think I could beat Fedor? of course, but now I'll never get the opportunity to prove it since [Fedor's] made it clear that he wants no part of facing real competition.”

After reading this all russian MMA fans will say the exactly same thing and call Frank "пидор". Fedor would destroy this loser easily. Mir is the one who hasn't faced any real competition and got his faced smashed by LHW Vera, not so threatening Cruz, and the guy with 2-1 record, who publically humiliated him afterwards, and fought on preliminary card not long ago. Mir probably was kissing Dana's ass and prayed they would not have made him face Arlovski, Werdum or even Gonzaga during 60-70s. All of them would've made him bleed.

Frank would sub Rogers or own him on the ground. I think Kongo would crush Rogers, i would bet big $$$ on that.
Rogers is about as overrated as you can get, one flash KO has all these ppl drinking the Koolaid, esp since he fought Fedor... oh he must be so good.... he just started training MMA fulltime, he is going to get owned many times in the future, book it.
Ppl owe Frank his respect, Nog should come on forums and tell his fans to STFU with excuses because it's against everything he stands for... you man up and swallow the loss, not make excuses.
Do i think Frank can beat Fedor?? Probably not. But i think he is right about Fedors resume, who has he beaten of note lately that has anybody even considering he would be on top of p4p?? This Rogers guy ppl seem to be touting suddenly but never heard of 6 months ago?? lol, i guess that's the arguement your stuck with since Timmy is a lazy slob and AA is a mental case and everybody else Fedor has fought was so long ago it shouldnt matter in the scope of the division ATM. Oh well, keep telling the truth Frank, your a cocky fool at times but an intelligent guy and a good analyst.

I like Mir but he has already had to eat his words once with Brock, you think he would have learnt a lesson by now.

No. I like Mir, but he loves to talk.

Ummm, not overrating Rogers, but I think Frank's EGO would get into the way and he would try and bang with him, like he will try and bang with Kongo. If he tries to stand and bang with Rogers he will get knocked out. And if he tries to take Rogers down, he needs to get there first, and his wrestling ability isn't much to praise.
As far as the part-time training goes, Carwin is also a part timer is he overrated also?
I think your two biases in seeing the winner of a hypothetical match-up are:
1)Overrating Mir based on the fight with Nog.
2)Having a hard-on for proving that Fedor isn't fighting any serious competition(which seems to be your mantra) |

lol I agree, I like Mir regardless. He's completely wrong about Fedor and he knows it, but he's just saying what suits himself and the UFC. If Fedor couldn't sub Rogers I think Mir wouldn't have a fun time in there with him, I think Rogers would probably KO Mir.
That said, people can always say Fedor is avoiding competition etc but the reality is he will always stick with his management and M1 Global, I don't think he really cares. While top competition is important to him, so is the company he has a stake in no?
Fedor would also smash Mir, TKO in the early rounds. |

Not really...most say he is the #1 HW in the world but not p4p and that is what Mir was addressing.

In the past Mir always said Fedor was the # 1 fighter and best HW in the world. Now he's singing the same old tune Dana has been singing for years.
I still like Mir but have to say I lost a little respect for him.

He is a company man...if I worked for millions that another company paid me for...I would be willing to say silly things for them whenever they asked. |

Dont' get me wrong, so would I, and I'd expect others to call me a sell out.
I like Mir and his fighting style and always rooted for him becuase when I started watching the UFC way back in the day he was on a tear and loved when he beat big Tim.

Me too...that moto crash really hurt his career. Man it took so long for him to get back in the gym. And it was way longer for him to be fight ready...not only that, but it was all while he was in his mid 20's the prime of his fighting career. |

Mir has no intentions of leaving the UFC, has more to say about Fedor
