Hope Nog wins but I just think Mir's too much for him at this point in his career.

Prediction: correct Mir   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

Unfortunately, I haven't seen anything from Big Nog to make me think this fight will be much different from their first encounter.  The Schaub knockout was a glorious moment, but Mir ain't Brendan Schaub.

I think Mir will win again. I don't think it will be a finish however. I would like to see Frank begin finishing fights via some slick BJJ submissions!

Nog has better boxing and better BJJ frank Mir will have a strength advantage but i think Nog is being counted out here when he does have a chance to win this fight.

Prediction: correct Mir   wrong Decision  

I think Mir will try and recreate the last knock out to prove a point, but if Mogueira comes out berserker like he did with Schaub, Mir will do a better job of clinching and tie up any brawls. He may also use his size and wrestling advantage and take this to the ground, doing enough and staying out of submissions to a decision.

Big Nog isnt even THAT old but he's just taken way too much punishment over the years...! i mean he took more of a beating against Sapp then most will receive in their entire careers!

Actually I think I might change that decision to a R2 TKO win for Nog.

Mir hasnt looked impressive for a long time to me. Nog didnt impress me against Schaub other than the KO but here's to hoping that he returns to form.
