Mir almost got knocked out you clown.
What's your point? He recovered and did to Nog what no one else has ever been able to do. He submitted him.
And for all of you who are using the "nog is old and past his prime", I say, big whoop! He is only 3 years older than Mir, and Mir too is past his prime. Unlike Nog, however, Mir has evolved his game and is better today than when he was holding the belt.
For his next fight, he is either going to get Cain or the winner of Alistar/Lesnar. Anyone of those guys would be a seriously tough matchup for Mir, but he does have chance against any heavyweight.
If it were up to me, I would bring Werdum over from Strike Force and match him up against Mir. That would be an awesome fight.
