[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3ZHqioYuQc[/ame] A very interesting Q&A with Frank Mir. The sound does have a bit of an echo, but worth the watch/listen to regardless. And as I've said before a few times here at least, I don't understand the Frank Mir hate at all. It makes absolutely zero sense to me. The guy is among the most intelligent and articulate fighters we've ever had in this sport. Whether or not I agree completely with him, I've never once heard Frank Mir say something and thought, "What? That makes no sense at all."
Can someone please tell me what he's saying about food, blood pressure, insuline levels etc.? ****ing echo makes this really difficult :twisted:
Yeah, I started off as a Mir hater but the guy is a winner, there's no doubt about it. He is clearly one of the smartest fighters in the sport, and he always seems to look calm and in full control of himself. He's a true alpha male, not a blowhard idiot. When he walks to the ring he always looks so damned relaxed, you have to respect that. And he is nasty in the ring too, you know that Frank Mir is always looking for the big sudden finish. :hat
you might be on to something. thats why the guy never shows up in sick shape. so he has a ready made excuse for his losses. if ever there was a guy who just needs to put his nose to the grindstone and work its him. none of this bodybuilding nonsense. just straight torturous conditioning. hardcore calisthenics, long hill climbs on a bike and 400 metre sprints. the type of stuff that instills mental toughness and the ability to persevere.. hes got all the skill in the world. if he had the motor and mindset to go with it hed be near unbeatable.
i think theyre a different standard of fighter. frank could never do what bj can do. but yeah similar scenario.
