Mir vs Nog. Does anyone care?

I was hyped as hell for Forrest vs Rampage even before TUF 7 startred. But Mir vs Nog? This seems like a pretty pointless fight to wait for. Even when it comes fight time, I don't think I'm gonna be all that excited. Does anyone else really care about this fight?

It;ll be good to see Nog in the octagon after a long layoff, but I don't think I've ever gotten to excited about a Frank Mur fight ...

I always like seeing Nog win, so yes I care about this fight. Hopefully Nog has already been promoted to full HW champ status by the time this fight happens.

Agreed. Mir beats Lesnar and suddenly he earns a title shot?

I think it has the potential to be a very technical ground war which is what I like so yeah I want to see it.

I for sure will be excited to see Nogueira vs. Mir in December.

Can't wait to see their coaching and advice methods on the show.

I care, but not as much as most TUF finale fights. This feels on par with BJ/Pulver, since Mir isn't incredibly deserving of a title shot.

I'm excited more for the show than for the fight. With Anderson, Lil Nog, and Drysdale as assistants and the possibility of some great young fighters on the show--two weightclasses will make sure the crappy talent doesn't make it on--it should be better than TUF 7.
