Prediction: correct Mir wrong Decision

Mir by decision maybe a late tko but I think Nog's chin will hold up this time.

Prediction: correct Mir wrong KO/TKO wrong Round 2

I'm not excited for this fight at all.... I love that NOG KO'd Schaub, but lets face it. Up until that flurry he was getting tagged repeatedly. Mir is going to annihilate him again...

Prediction: wrong Nogueira wrong KO/TKO wrong Round 1

I don't see "Big Nog" losing to Mir again, plus there is just something about Mir that I just do not like.

I think this is a tougher fight to call than most people think. It should come down to ground game if Big Nog wants to have a chance in this fight. Mir should get the win though.

Prediction: wrong Nogueira wrong Decision

I agree it's a hard fight to call. Mir will have a huge speed edge on the feet, and based on Nog's last few fights he'll have a boxing edge too. Nogueira needs to get this fight to the ground or dirty box Mir. I have a hard time seeing him bullying Mir against the cage, and I am doubtful he'll take him down. Nogueira can find a way to win though, even with odds stacked against him.

Prediction: correct Mir wrong KO/TKO wrong Round 2

It is a very tough fight to call, but I think that Mir will prove that the first fight wasn't a fluke. A few years ago, I would've said that this would be Nog's fight with ease, but Mir has improved while Nog has gotten older and more battle worn. I fear it's going to be the same ending as Kos/Hughes.

I'm just not liking the way that Nog looks physically these days. UFC 134 was a magic moment, but I don't know if he's going to have many more.

@beast, Tapology is unique in that it is the only place you will ever see Minotauro Nogueira haters.

I don't think a win over Brendan Schaub puts Big Nog in a position where I would pick him over Mir. Then again Nogueira's are capable of anything.

As i said, i love mir...but a motivated big nog is scary, ask schaub and couture.. With revenge on his mind, he'll win
