Frank Mir vs. Josh Barnett is only logical

[LHWBelt]

It's the perfect match up. Mir's fought better comp as of late. Barnett has a better record. Both are former UFC HW champs. Both are getting a little older but still relevant. Both are excellent grapplers with underrated striking. Make it happen.

Been calling for this fight for a LONG time.

I would love to see them offer Josh and Mir the next season of TUF as well.

Look Mir has upgraded his headphones to dre beats

 

[CrashStitches]

Barnett vs Mir has been a fantasy matchup for a decade, goddammit. I don't wanna see Cormier/Mir before that.

 

[Rekrul]

I agree, this needs to happen.

 

[JahBless]

i wholeheartdly agree. just the style matchup alone is worth it, but consider the personality matchup. this has TUF written all over it. two former ufc champs. why not??

wonderful post, bredren

hell yeah
i dont watch TUF in years and i would absolutely watch this

Mir should be retired. I won't comment on Barnett because I haven't seen him fight in years.

 

[priderulez]

What do u mean fat LHW? He defeated Barnett decisively and is def a top 5 if not top 3 HW right now.
You must be completely retarded to send a top 5 HW fight LHWs that arent even top 10 right now

 

[Hammer House]

I wanna see barnett v. Carwin

 

[Halifax]

Lol no. If Barnett does come over he doesn't deserve more than a bottom 7-10 guy to start.

Mir is a bottom 7-10 guy

 

[fedoriswar37]

Since Mir is fighting Cormier, why not Barnett vs Nelson ? I actually think that would be a hell of a fight.

I wanna see barnett v. Carwin

I would love to see Cormier v. Carwin and Mir v. Barnett. I haven't seen any expected return date for Carwin and some, including Dana have expressed doubt that Carwin will ever return.
