    Before you say Mir by "whatever he wants"...
    Watch this:

    Of course that was then...Now Nelson is way fatter...But he's still a very capable fighter.

    neither are anything special both gatekeepers to the top 10 imo
    However Nelson seems to take a punch alot better than Mir so if the fights standing that could be important

    Mir. He'll win UD. I'm not really understanding why he's all of a sudden being demoted to a gatekeeper? Frank Mir is still a top HW.

    I reckon Mir batters him standing, causing a lot of damage and maybe a mercy stoppage

    Hes only a top hw in the UFC because of how weak that divison is. He aint got the skill to beat the huge guys or the size to beat more skillful guys. Always gonna lose to top guys but gonna beat the rest convincingly therefore a gatekeeper
