I think both Mir and Bigfoot are talented fighters and this is an intriguing style matchup, albeit between two guys who aren't particularly relevant to their division's title picture. They've both had really tough runs lately and it's nice to see them in an appropriate fight.

I think it depends on how faded Mir is but if he's gonna beat a real guy before he retires it's gonna be by brutal destruction and Bigfoot is definitely the likeliest victim. I loving hated Frank when I first started watching MMA (after the first Nog fight) but he's slowly wormed his way into my heart and I really want to see him win a la the Kongo fight.

Mir came in at 261, still with visible abs, by the way. I'm pretty sure that's the heaviest he's been in a while. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing, or just a thing.

Being someone whose serious MMA watching career began around Mir - Abbot and Mir - Sylvia arm snap I've always had an extremely soft spot for his weird rear end and want him to do well.

I think it all comes down to how his mental game is. If he isn't a headcase anymore and comes in chill, I dig those chances.

Bigfoot just simply is Bigfoot. Big as hell, gonna be there being big as hell, going to throw some big as hell punches. If you are Overeem (a giant failure) that's eventually going to be a problem. If you are Frank, who the gently caress knows?

Come on Mir, spam your weird Nog killing 1, 2, 3 combo and get a late career resurgence going back. Your wife might let you ejaculate in the safe room as her.

Personality wise Frank Mir carries himself in the same way JT does, but without the Sun Tzu outer dialog, and not British.

Is tonight the greatest moment in Dominick Cruz's life?

No.

The greatest moment in my life was realizing that I didn't need a belt to be happy.
tbh Frank Mir's wife seems pretty cool.

Did Bigfoot look very unjacked at the weigh ins or was that just me?

Bigfoot's always had skinny arms relative to his body and a relatively non-muscular look, probably because his frame is so big that he wouldn't be able to make weight if he put on any more muscle than he already has.

the most interesting scenario for bigfoot v mir is bigfoot takes him down and we see mir work off his back against bigfoot. i mean as far as if its actually going to be good

probably the best thing would be a a quick finish but if we have to watch it id at least like to see them grapple instead of kickbox very badly

This card is pretty weird but I guess the top 4 fights are ok. I'm excited for the return of Cezar Mootanch, VItor coattail rider.

Iuri Alcantara is a good fighter with terrible takedown defense, Santiago Ponzinibbio isn't awful for a TUF Brasil guy. I don't see why everyone is so down on this card other than making GBS threads all over the headliner on general principle.

I like Barboza vs Johnson a bit more but the main is a pretty good fight and I'm really sick of people whining about every matchup and how all fighters are bad.

Alcantra looked a lot better against Faber than most people do, and he switched to Jackson's for this fight which is kind of interesting.

Also Barboza/Johnson is probably going to be good, and I like Smilin' Sam Alvey.
