Frank Mir: ‘I hope Brock Lesnar dies in the ring’ | The Sun |Sport|Wrestling
very harsh

Frank is a complete wanker coming out with this shit !
I hope Brock smashes him to bits, grounds and pounds him to within a inch of his life !
This doesnt help Franks image, nor the image of the sport, cannot see Dana taking to this to kindly :-\
In Mir's defence Lesnar's a cock ;D
I'm pretty sure if one was to pick out the moment that one of the two flew off the handle, it would be Brock Lesnar by a long shot. Tell me you don't remember Brock yelling into the camera like 'roided WWE star after his win against Frank in UFC101?
Brock calling him a "lucky shit" and gloating his win. He did not offer Frank an ounce of sportsmanship. I thought Frank was a pretty fair guy as far as sportsmanship goes, but hell, even I could not take that kind of ridicule. Lesnar thinks after avenging his one loss... in his 3rd or 4th fight total... he is undiputed. It's just too bad he's right. Only think that can knock this guy off is his own health.... oh wait...
I don't blame Frank at all... Brock is a complete douchebag.
Brock is a total fucktard, especially after the lack of class he did displayed 2 fights ago. However, by stating that, Mir is just dropping himself to the same low level standard as Brock and shouldn't be applauded for his WWE-a-like fresque.
I'd bet serious money Dana White cut Mir a nice check under the table to say this, being as though he couldn't sign Emelianenko and with no one in the UFC heavyweight division to build up even close to the anticipation of a Fedor-Brock fight, Dana probably feels doing this would be the next best thing. I also never bought that story of White b!tching Lesnar out in the locker room after the Mir rematch for his behavior. Probably gave him a hug since he lined both their pockets that night.
I very much doubt Dana was pleased with Brocks outburst after he beat Mir in the rematch as he has worked so hard to give the sport a good name for a red neck ape to go and act like a WWE idiot and damage in five minutes what took years to build, not forgetting what he said about the sponsors!!
Frank Mir is Brock mad, he must dream about him!!! To be honest it is a stupid thing to say and im sure on reflection he would agree - he is one of my favourite fighters with his skill set he could potentially beat anyone, i sometimes think his self confidence and mouth in general fail to endear him to the fans.
To be honest there is a very real chance that this fight wont happen for a while anyway as Mir has to get past a very game challenger in Shane Carwin first!
Yea Frank needs to be concentrating on his next foe, as Shane is certainly no pushover !
And judging by what Cain done to Big Nog, then it wouldnt suprise me if Cain were to beat Frank if they were to meet.
On a side note, must say how impressed i was with George Sotiropoulos ! He totally dominated Joe in a one way fight. I've liked what he does since him being on TUF, his ground game was always good, but that night it was off the planet !
Also props to Ryan Bader, although he did looked to be gassing, but great finish against a contender in Jardine.
Wow, not very sportsmanlike.
Franks always been perceived as a jock, but rarely a bad guy, but he was nasty before the Kongo fight too...strange
Its all this weight he is putting on he is turning into a bully!!! :)
i am new to the sport & b4 getting into watching it thought that the guys in the ufc were just thugs beating the brains outta each other, after watching the 1st series of the ultimate fighter re run last year on espn i started watching the live events also. after reading what mir said i was pretty sickened by it. yeah he might hate the guy but to say shit like this is very bad for the sport!
also on top of the fact brock been real ill & just had a baby
Most MMA practicioners come from a traditional martial art back ground so to say that they are thugs is just an uneducated opinion, something i even thought in the early days.
This is what i mean about the work Dana and co have been doing to educate the public and then stupid things being said by the likes or Mir and Brock to give the haters further amunition. Im sure everyone on here has had to defend MMA to someone they know at some point!
The UFC started as a platform for the Gracies to show that BJJ was the best martial art in the world when Royce won the first UFC.
So after all that rant, yes Frank Mir is an idiot who says stupid things, he is a bloody good mixed martial artist though!
What a douche freaking thing to say...
Could not wish that on your Worst Enemy , Not saying Brock is a Angel ? But hey its a sport between men & Honor lets keep it that Way " Swifty Down Under .
i agree after watching the way they train i have alot of respect for them as i always believed boxers trained the hardest after seeing wanderlei silva train i have changed my mind, also unlike most boxers almost non of them in the UFC dodge each other (correct me if i am wrong here)Quote:
