    The UFC...where all champions get their entire first year off so they can tape the 197th season of goons breaking **** in a mansion.

    Dont ignore Mir. Mirs got incredible submission skills himself plus hes a very well spoken intelligent man.

    Yeah it should be good, seems like everyone forgot who Frank Mir was it will be good to see a whole season of him in action working with other guys. Nog is a tough competitor for anyone whether he is half blind or not. I think it will turn in to a really technical BJJ match, and I mean technical.

    Frank Mir at his very peak would've given Nogeira hell- but since his accident, his style and conditioning appear to have taken hits.

    He pulled out the Lesnar fight with poise and experience (and some luck!) but Nogeira takes out Mir today, no doubt in my mind!!!

    nog will swallow him. Mir is good at submissions, but im afraid Nog is a few levels above him, better conditioned etc. No brainer imo

    Hilarious. :rofl

    But it does make for interesting television. I'm talking about the coaches - not the goons. I would love to train with guys like Couture or Noguiera. One day's worth of training with them could change your entire outlook on some aspect of the fight game. Moments like that are priceless. Sniff.:|

    Does anyone know which weight class it will be. I hope its the Heavies as the division is pretty shallow at the moment

    You would think going into the 8th season they would finally do a 2nd Heavyweight divison on TUF but its Lightweights agian and Light Heavys.
