Prediction: correct Mir   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

I totally forgot nog was 35 he looks like he could be 45, looks so haggard sometimes.  Also i dont think that many people like mir but know he should take this, mir has always been a top tier heavyweight hes always been the guy who will hang around the top contender spot and he athletic and has heavy hands now a days we would all love for nog to win so if you pick mur its a win win.

Prediction: correct Mir   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

Lets not forget here that Schaub has a weak chin and got crushed by Big Country in the TUF Finale.  I don't see Nog's KO of Schaub as that impressive--Schaub was controlling until he got caught.  Mir has already shown he can KO Nog...I realize he may have not been 100% with the staph infection but all these guys fight with injuries.  With that said, Mir is a pretty intelligent fighter and I think he comes out patient not going for the early KO but will look to establish his range and dominate the entire fight.  Nog is way past his prime, and while Mir isn't exactly championship material anymore he's got a lot more left in him than Nog does.  I can't see Nog winning this fight no matter where it goes and as the fight goes on he will tire faster than Mir will--Mir by 2nd or 3rd Round TKO.

Prediction: wrong Nogueira   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Big Nog finds Mir's chin and wins the rematch with a first round KO. I don't think I could handle Mir TKO'ing Big Nog again. I'll probably implode if it happens.

Frank Mir hasn't looked impressive lately and Nogueira brothers have been. Not to mention, their both fighting at this event, something tells me their ready for tonight.

It's been an amazing run for Big Nog, but the end is near.

Nog is just too broken down at this point. Mir will be much faster and I expect this to look the same as the first fight.

Am I the only one who upon seeing big nog part in UFC 140 part 2 countdown (which was supose to make nog look impressive) cam out feeling like he stands zero chance?  He looked slow and old in the clips that were suposes to make him look impressive making me think he stand really no chance.

If the Nog that boxed up Sergei Kharitinov returns tonight (unlikely) it'd be quite the sight.

Prediction: correct Mir   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

I'll be rooting for Nog but I'm afraid it may take the Bob Sapp version of Nog. If Nog can slip the power punches and tire out Mir in the clinch, he can finish him late cuz Mir's fighting ability drops considerably when he's not the front runner. If Nog can make it a true fight, not a sparring session, AND avoid getting KOed, he could take this on pure heart.
