    Your comment about Frank Mir's win against Brock Lesnar made me laugh. If walking out of the octagon with his face looking like pulped hamburger is your idea of an easy victory  I would hate to see what you call a tough win. Lesnar's inexperience with jiujitsu was painfully apparent but, I'd hate to be Frank Mir in a rematch after Lesnar becomes more proficient. But for the kind of money they're paying those guys I'd bust Frank up, too, given the opportunity. Hell, I'll do it for $100,000.00. Poor man discount.

Frank Mir's Strategy To Win: Speed — Bloody Elbow
I'm really not sure how far this is going to carry him : In addition to a decided edge in MMA experience against Lesnar, the 28-year-old Mir (10-3) will have advantages in the stand-up game, and his jiu-jitsu skills are battle-tested. Lesnar's strength will be the equalizer. "Obviously, Brock Lesnar is stronger than I am," Mir said. "He's stronger than most anybody he competes against, so if ...
