Mir took his soul
Time to hang em up Nog
bascially everyone after he got kicked in the head by Heath (a few bright spots here and there).

How many times will they let a guy get dropped in a single round before ref steps in and saves him from getting finally his lights turn off in a brutal fashion?
Coming from Roy its not a big deal. I mean, dude has dynamite in his hands
beautiful
and to think Nog asked for Roy Nelson (be careful what you ask for)
little trivia fact: this is the 4th opponent that Nog and Mir have in common, the other three being Crocop, Sylvia, and Barnett.
Barnett is the only one Nog did better against than Mir.
Mir was beating Crocop (narrowly) before ko'ing him. Nog was getting destroyed before making a comeback submission.
Mir subbed Sylvia effortlessly. Nog got dropped multiple times before getting a submission.
Mir dominated Nelson for 3 rounds. Nog got dominated and ko'd in 1 round.
And of course, Mir and Nog also had two fights against each other in which Mir finished him both times (once by KO and once by Submission)
Frank Mir is vastly underrated (or either Nog is vastly overrated--either way)
Only if you have no concept of time.
totally expected it, but damn dat rigor mortis
but it doesn't really count. nog had staph, two broken arms, a concussion and a terrible fever going into the fight
mirs been around since 2001 and was ufc champ around the time nog was pride champ

and has been active a fraction of the time. let alone active at a high level. Even with the TRT boost he cant compete at the highest level today.
he was less active because he suffered a leg injury so severe doctors weren't sure he'd ever walk on that leg again.
The fact that he came back and won the ufc belt again speaks volumes. It's one of the biggest what if's in MMA that people never talk about: What if Frank had never gotten in that accident.
Because a post-accident frank still managed to have some of the biggest and best wins of his career.

How can anyone be surprised that happened..?
I'm a big Nog fan, but in a weird way it didn't bother me that much...like when someone's 110 year old grandfather dies. You obviously knew it was coming, and you were so prepared for it that it wasn't as heartbreaking as it should be.
