    Why dont he go down to 185? Or how about 170?
    Mir is a heavyweight end of story.

    Just watched this again and realised how interesting Mir is when sharing his knowledge of the game , the man is so knowledgable its untrue , true true student of the game .

    Fedor is a goddamn relic developed by the Soviet Union that was never deployed during the cold war.Terminators of his model didn't have speech chips implanted:patsch

    I don't think Frank can make LHW without some ill consequence but if he takes the proper time off i'm sure he can gauge how he feels better than anyone.

    Thats intresting ,I didnt know that.
    What are chances of Shane Carwin moving down to 205, if he loses to Lesnar convincingly and he realizes he cant win the HW title? Mir vs Carwin II could be good.

    Thats all hes really trying to do if you listen to his interview. Some are acting like his drop is set in stone. He cleary states he has some time off before he gets back for a camp and a fight. Frank is an intelligent guy and if it isnt possible to make it to 205 he will know this after a few weeks. Personally id rather he stay at his weight especially considering the fact he put on about 10 pounds of muscle recently. But then agian im not expert I thought Wanderlei would need to cut an arm off to make 185 but he made it and he looked different yes but didnt fight bad at all vs Bisping so who knows. It will be interesting to see what happens.

    Frank always looks flabby to me. I could see him possibly making 205. He will be a bag of bones looking thing though. Always respected Mir. I wish him the best and I hope he doesn't hurt himself with this.

    I find him to be an arrogant jerk and I will never root for him regardless of what weightclass he enters. Unless of course, he fights an equally or dare I say even bigger jerk. Not out of the question in this sport. Besides he has already come close a couple of times.
