Brandon Vera vs Frank Mir Added to UFC 62

http://www.brandonvera.com/

Top right

Apparently the fight was signed for ufc 63 but because Terrell pulled out they needed another big name fight so they moved it up...so Mir really hasnt begun his trainning yet.

I took pictures with Frank Mir at Golden Coral a week ago and I hope he gets in shape but the sad truth is
Winner: Vera By Whatever He feels like

Bad fight for Mir. He is not going to out wrestle Vera and he is going to get KTFO

This is a good fight to add to the card IMO. An excellent way for Mir to redeem himself with a win, and a great way for Vera to continue dominance with a win. Great move by the UFC. Touche.

I really hope Vera sends Mir into retirement. Mir is the only fighter I dont like besides Ricco. Vera via Murder.

How can Mir be fighting so soon again (month and a half between fights -- unusually short between UFC bouts)? And how could the UFC expect him to get in better shape (which is what everyone is asking of him) so soon?

If this is true, Brandon Vera by domination.

doesnt poor mir get a break...they didnt give him much time to get into shape...

after his last performance the ufc are probably trying to kill off his legend so they can stop booking him without people bitching...

i hope he wins...go frank...i he does, thats a good enough springboard for mir aa early next year
