Frank Mir talks Roy Nelson, and the idea of fighting teammates

Wow Mir has some good points,I liked his idea on more fighters refusing to train together rather than fight.

Yeah, man. Mir is always a good interview; intelligent and insightful. I'm sure more fighters are thinking of this too. Mir vs. Nelson is a tough fight to call IMO, they're pretty evenly matched, all around. But, I'm a Mir fan, and I'll take Frank any ole day of the week, I don't see a finish in this fight, although, I see Mir taking a Decision.

wow that reported sucks hard she was so rude

I agree....there should be none of that queer friend shit. This is fighting people not a circle jerk. I like Mir in this one but he has to watch those guns on nelson. You can never underestimate that meatball, hes a good ass fighter.

LOL!! This interviewer is GREEN! Look at 2:41 Mir's face when this Chick cuts him off! He is like WTF are you doing!?

good point on mir, i mean even brothers fight i dont see any problem of fighting a teammate besides they know your game but fighting a friend shouldnt be a problem this is a bout whos the best int he world

is it just me or was this interviewer a bitch? judging nelsons heart filled performance against JDS and ignorantly saying that without trash talk the pre fight interviews are "boring". get another job bitch.

Definitely a horrible interviewer. Apparently fights are boring if there is no shit talking between opponents. She must love Chael and Tito.

Agreed, she's ****in terrible, She got caught out at the end too by not watching TUF, Not all fights need a storyline, genuine fans will be interested in this match up.

I know he's not a particularly popular guy with a lot of MMA fans, but I flat out like the guy. I think he's a very intelligent and thoughtful guy. He always has something interesting to say and always has great insight and analysis, into the sport. He's also a great on the microphone, as color commentator.



As to their fight - I like Big Country. I have a lot of respect for him and this won't be an easy fight for FM, but I'll pick and pull for Mir. He is a whole lot better than many give him credit for. He's great on the ground, his stand-up has improved immensely (IMO), he's added some much needed size and strength to his frame and he packs some wallop in his feet, knees, elbows and fists.



I hope FM wins - he'd be a great match-up for either Cain or JDS and a tough fight for any in the division; including the two big men he's lost to; Carwin and Lesnar.

guess im not the only person who thought that interviewer sucked. i cant stand these people from the media that know nothing about mma, this b*tch should be fired, let ariel do the interviews.

I really like Frank Mir, he's just a straight-up honest guy, doesn't sugar-coat shit for the sake of sensitive pussies who are going to call him ****y. He's a world-class fighter and he knows it, and extremely thoughtful, introspective, intelligent, and gives great interviews. And I'm thumbs-upping him all ****ing day when it comes to his Randy-Machida prediction.
