UFC on Fox 7 Results: Has Joe Mir Reached the End of the Street?

Exactly what do be said about Frank Mir that's not been said time and time again? With 14 wins inside the Octagon, he's the winningest heavyweight in the record of the UFC. In addition, the Vegas-born fighter has extraordinary submission skills along with a belt in kenpo karate. These skills brought Mir to a set of world games, as well as wins against a few of the greatest names that the sport has ever seen, including Brock Lesnar, "Minotauro" Nogueira, Mirko Cro Cop and more. However, Mir's greatest wins came against a novice who was greener than the Garden of Eden and fading stars who'd waved bye-bye for their aggressive primes years earlier. Mir was on the receiving end of beatdowns from famous brands Shane Carwin, Junior dos Santos and Lesnar, who avenged the prior loss in severe manner, when facing the top stars of the modern period. On Saturday evening, Mir was completely manhandled by Olympian Daniel Cormier en route to a unanimous-decision victory. It absolutely was the 2nd consecutive damage for Mir, who'd never previously experienced a losing streak. Many question whether Frank has what it will take to be appropriate in the title scene. In the end, he has match well stylistically with ruling success Cain Velasquez and does lost decisively to the people at the very top of the team. Is this the end of the road for Mir?AThat depends upon that which you mean by the term. You will find no symptoms to point that Mir is preparing to call it quits. He seems happy with his new relationship under coach Greg Jackson and will probably compete several more times before calling it a career. Under no circumstances do I visit a scenario where Mir becomes a global champion again. His recent skid has him a minimum of three wins from still another chance at the gear. Given that Mir has a tendency to fight only twice in a calendar year, the jiu-jitsu wizard would be 36 years old by enough time he'd challenge for silver. On the other hand, what do I know? Along side most of the MMA world, I have had doubts about Mir ever since his 2004 motorbike accident, and since that point, the guy has identified the most success of his life.
