Frank Mir to Greg Jakcson's!

I think Mir should work on rolling for leg locks; palahres style. Mir has pretty good leg locks; and they are such an unexpected thing to defend.

yeah. i don't get rogan's comment that mir has a small man's guard. all he does is roll for leglocks. a clear sign of lack of fundamentals. he makes up for it with his strength.

i totally agree

i think Rogan is impressed with Frank's movement and agility in his guard, but i too have never been overtly impressed by his technique. his style seems to be submission over position to me

His chances on winning this fight just went up - whether it's .1%, 10, 40 or whatever, if Greg Jackson trains/corners you it's a positive.

I like it. Mir has always been a favorite of mine. I still believe he is one of, if not the best HW submission guys in MMA. I know people are ready to yell out other names like Werdume and Nog, but I don't believe they are better in MMA. Nog WAS good at taking a beating and then subbing guys. Not to mention, that was back in the Pride days. He's had two subs in 6 years. Not that impressive IMO. Werdum hasn't subbed too many guys either, but at least he has improved with every fight and started collecting KOs. He's definitely found his rhythm. Mir has transformed himself several times and continues to find ways to win and stay on top. IMO, he rarely get the credit he deserves on the forum. He's had awesome comebacks in life and in fights. He's almost never in a boring fight either. He either goes for the KO, rips off a limb or gets rocked and does the truffle shuffle before he finally goes out. ALL equally entertaining!!

So I see you have COMPLETELY ignored the comments about how most fighters at Jackson's do not stall or "moonwalk".

Jones is the best fighter out of that camp, since when has he "moonwalked"??

Dana White didnt call Greg Jackson a "sport killer" because all his fighters come out with guns blazing..

You may once again put your foot back in its shoe from its current resting place.

Condit earned the label with the Nick Diaz fight.

Well earned I might add. And a factual opinion doesnt make anyone what your name call is.

I was a big fan of Condit until that fight. If fighters werent rewarded by moonwalking
they wouldnt do more and more of it.

when you see Guida become one thats the ultimate rsponse.

I've got to ask...what is a "factual opinion"? Those two words mean opposite things.

A fact is something objectively known. It is a fact that Carlos Condit beat Nick Diaz under the rules of MMA.

An opinion is not objectively known. It is an opinion that the judges were wrong and Nick Diaz should have won the fight.

Now some opinions are informed by by facts, and we call these conclusions. And not everything stated as a fact is in fact one (these are called inaccuracies or lies).

But there is no such thing as a factual opinion. Something is one thing or the other.
