I'm too lazy to actually research his fights, but looking it up on fightmetric, his striking defense is something around 40% compared to Cormier's 70%. That may be product of Mir being TKO'd in his couple of losses in his career, but even Roy Nelson has a higher striking defense and he lets people tee off on his head. Cormier also hasn't hasn't fought the same level as fighters as Mir has or really any striking oriented fighters like Mir has

You should though because every one of Mir's fights in the UFC (except for Cro Cop) own for one reason or another

Elemennop posted:I admit my failures, but I'm not about to start breaking down tape of Frank Mir for fun. And that's fair enough. I don't think Frank's striking is so much worse than the other top guys at HW, though. Yeah Junior KO'd him but he's the best at KO'ing people in the division. He smoked Nogeuira once and got punched silly once. Other than that he's done pretty well for himself He does have the ability to instantly lose that I wouldn't be surprised to see in a fight against anyone

That fightmetric also includes Mir's Carwin-delivered execution so I'm sure that inflates his "significant strikes received without defense" or whatever

Daniel Cormier has had all of 2 fights against top competition, with 'top' being used loosely as this is the heavyweight division. Please do not bet based on MMA punchstats.

Thanks for the discussion guys. I'm still going to put some money on Mir because I think there's a possibility, but it's going to be in the area of  .Edit: Confirmed - on Mir, on Bendo.

You should show off to some MMA journalism sites and get some e-fame. Lots of places wrote an article on it the last time that happened ($200 on a 12 fight parlay led to like $50k+)

I had a buck on Gil/Bendo to draw at +8000. I figured it would look similar to a Bendo/edgar fight.

Leonard Garcia at -175 on 5dimes seems like a pretty good line considering that Cody Mckenzie has no real MMA skills other than his guillotine. I see Garcia brawling and getting a decision/TKO and Cody being unable to get the takedown he needs. Will post my bets for this weekend later.

It's going to be so great when Leonard Garcia wins this fight and then loses on the scorecards.

Please also consider that McKenzie's guillotines probably land more often than Garcia's hooks
