If you’re right, we’ll go back to this comment section and say that you called it. JP called it here!

I’ll try to watch the entire 100 show again here soon and I’ll let you know.

[...] a good top to bottom fight card. The main event was a fun kickboxing exhibition turned screwjob (we detailed this on our recent edition of FGB Radio), but the most entertaining moment was Velasquez annihilating Rothwell. Everything else was [...]

I am a Mir fan, I confess. Doesn’t mean I can’t be right though lol

That is the fun of the sport. Who knows what will happen.

As for the UFC 100 DVD, is it true they edited out Hendo’s flying elbow?

I think you just love you some Mir. Ha!

By the way, I go the UFC 100 Blu-ray. It’s beautiful.

I think the desire for a rubber match against Lesnar will fuel Mir. But that is just my two cents.

Mir is a spent force. His career was prolonged because he had enough cunning to catch a rookie in a leglock. That’s it.

He’s not got the mindset nor the dedication to compete at the highest level anymore. With Kongo you know what you get. He’s not a complete fighter, but he’s very physically strong and has decent take down defense unless he’s being matched with elite wrestler types. Also it’s worth noting that he has never been submitted in MMA despite his questionable ground fighting skills.

My feeling is that he has more than enough to deal with Mir. The only way i see him losing this is if Kongo gets overzealous with ground and pound and Mir catches him. Otherwise Kongo picks him apart and causes him to quit

I’m not sure Mir can handle guys who fight like Brock, who are guys like Velasquez and Carwin. Brock showed those guys how to beat a jui-jitsu guy with wrestling.

If Mir can’t get Kongo to the ground he is foolish. He made it known he intends to add bulk up and improve his striking, but against Kongo he should work for the sub.

Mir’s greater eye (so to speak) is fixed upon Lesnar. I believe Mir will tear through the heavyweight division in the meantime. But that is just me.

I think the Mir we will see at 107 will be a beast.

Thanks for listening man. I’m very scared of Kongo beats Mir. Shouldn’t Mir just be able to take him down and finish him?

I watched impact this week for the first time in months.

It was a really a mixed bag. I liked a lot of the matches, and i thought the Nigel thing was decent enough. The DQ in the cage match really pissed me off, and every person on this show shouts out every single word. After the first segment i was like, My God, please shut up. Rhino just screaming for several minutes straight was too much for me to sit through. A calm Jake roberts style promo is seriously needed in that company.

Regarding Taz mentioning the name change, I thought that it was what GG said about google. There were probably a good few people who saw Nigel’s name on sites during the week, but had never actually seen him before, and they wanted to just insure that they were capitalizing on that hype.
