    Is that a joke? If White cuts Mir he is an arsehole. He's already an arsehole for not giving Mir the KOOTN. It's not called KOOTNBOIYP = KO of the night but only if you perform.

    There's no way White can cut Mir after winning against CroCop no matter how boring he is. Mir would go STRAIGHT to Strikeforce and provide great depth to their heavyweight roster.

    Exactly. I understand the need for exciting fights but White has to be careful with who he cuts and for what reason because there are orgs out there who will thrive off of his stupid decisions.

    His reasons against Barnett, Karo, Daley, Fedor etc are understandable but they send them straight to someone like SF and thats legit competition.

    Many consider the SF heavyweight division the best and deepest. They argue Cain, Carwin, JDS etc are still in the beginning of their career. I disagree but it's a fair argument. Guys like Werdum, Barnett and Fedor have long carees that have gone through alot.

    no, i never implied that any of the fights u mentioned "sucked". Mitrione and CB Dolla (free fights!) owned everything i paid for (stupid me).After paying $50 bucks for that event, i felt a pretty robbed (therefore adding it to my worst ufc list). Maybe Ive seen too many GREAT or GOOD Ufcs

    I did enjoy the Lytle fight a lot though.


    one finish in the entire main card, wow.

    Also, it would be absolutely ridiculous. As if Frank Mir is a boring fighter? EVERY fighter has boring fights from time to time. All of Frank's recent fights except the Crocop fight have been anything but boring.

    Frank said that CC was defensive and looking for a big punch. He is right. Frank is good but he's not ultra talented where he can take crazy risks. Plus, say what you like but Frank finishes fights or gets finished. It wasn't a great fight but it had me watching because I felt all along that something big could happen for either fighter.
