I can’t call it either way. I just know it should be a hell of a fight.
Oh come on. Mir is one of my Top 5 favorite fighters of all time but I know that he doesn’t stand a chance. First round TKO for Cain.
I like Mir but I definitely give this to Cain, Mir seems to struggle against the guys with the better stand up. I hope Mir pulls it off but my money woulkd be on Cain for rd1 TKO.
Mir all day long
If Mir can’t get Cain into a sub, he’s done. Cain’s wrestling and striking will demolish him. He couldn’t even stand with Big Nog.
What r u talking about? Mir Knocked out Big Nog. Still I think Cain has this… KO 1 round
ufc 140. big nog rocked mir pretty bad mir went down. close to being stopped. and nog slipped up gave up his arm and got it broke
they fought twice and the first time he tkod him
If Mir can’t do something he does REALLY well he’s screwed? Uh oh he’s in trouble. And to Big Nog’s credit he has been all over boxing lately.
I feel like people are counting him out right away for no good reason– just like they did with JDS. I think I’ll make more easy money from all the overhype Cain is still getting.
I’m on Mir since his beginning…
Suck my dick u fag
u mean you want him to lick your *****, in order for him to suck your dick u would have to spit one out, and we all know you are never going to make that dick leave your mouth.
ur telling another man to suck ur dick and the other guy is the fag O_o i think u got it mixed up there buddy, but to each there own i aint judging u. Oh and sorry to hear ur boy Dakota Cochrane lost
suck my dick fag
I expected Cain to be a favorite, but that line seems way off to me.
If I was a betting man, those numbers would have me putting some cash on Mir. Cain has improved his standup, but he has still gotten hit a lot. JDS put him away easy, Kongo had him rocked over and over again… Mir is pretty good on his feet, and Cain doesn’t hit as hard as Carwin or Brock to put Mir away.
I think people are sleeping on Mir in this one.
+1
I’m saying it now Mir is the champ by years end or beginning of next year Guarantee he’s by far the most talented well rounded heavyweight out now and now he has a new sense of purpose, great fighter, great spokesman for the sport and soon great champion
You can’t be serious. He is far to slow to even touch JDS.
mir just jacked up Big Nog. he can do amazing things.
Mir, soon to be 3 time heavyweight champ!!
Mir is looking pretty impressive in the ring and that photo but velasquez is gonna knock that dude out for sure.
Andre arlovski -800 Haha
Cain. Mir is Dead
Mir will lose in probably not even a close fight. Overeem/JDS will be an epic fight though. I sense a JDS/Velasquez II. JDS will still win it but it could be a different fight if Cain doesn’t try standing again.
Cain all day.
your mother all day
your sister all day
Mir for sure ,too good on the ground
Extremely surprised that Mir is such an under-dog. He has been murdering people lately. Will be one hell of a fight, though.
I don’t know, Cain looked horrible his last fight. Physically he looked a lot smaller and jiggly than usual. I think something is seriously wrong with Cain.
he’s always been jiggly and small for a heavyweight.
Im going with mir.
Most likely Cain by TKO in the first, but Mir could do exactly the same to Cain and he can submit him on the ground. Cain is younger and has a better chin and that’s the bottom line.
What? Everyone knows Cain has no chin. He is younger, yes. Better cardio? Yes. Better wrestling? Yes. Better Thai Boxing? Yes. Better Jiu-Jitsu? **** no. Longer reach? **** no. Mir has to fight smart, get this to the ground, and submit him.
Anyone know a legit site where I can put some money on this ?
Why does everyone think cain is that good. I dont get it. He hits hard but thats it. Hes just like carwin. Mir has this.
