I agree that Vera will probably beat Mir unless Mir really turns himself around. However, I think he is going a bit too far talking about beating Chuck. If Randy Coutoure has a tough time taking Chuck down, Vera will have no chance.

Im sure Vera will beat Mir.
As far as fighting Chuck, he'd have to get in line behind alot of other much more worthy fighters. There's many LHW's with better resumes than Vera..mainly because his resume has noone on it.
I'm not saying he is or will be a viable threat, but there's many undefeated fighters in the UFC that look unbreakable becuase they are yet to be defeated.
You have to beat people with credentials to earn your own and until he starts taking out real names he wont get any title shot

Wrong on both counts. Mir >>>>>>Vera.

Vera is great and right now seems to be in heavy contention for the UFC HW title. I also believe he could give chuck a run for his money.

haha. that's much easier said than done. if thats vera's gameplan going into a fight with the iceman, he's going to get brutally KTFO.

I can't believe some of you dumbass mother fuckers are giving Mir a chance in this fight.

I am not even giving him a punchers chance in this fight.

Frank Mir is the most overrated fighter in the History of MMA.

It is definately suspect that a white belt in a fictional belt system on a web forum started this, but considering that this belt system is on a web forum and I would probably have no problem using my many years of MMA training to show you what my real fake white belt would do to you. If only this wasn't the web and I wasn't hiding behind my fake white belt... let's make it real.
