After making his Absolute Championship Berkut (ACB) commentary debut this weekend, former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) heavyweight champion Frank Mir made his future career ambitions very clear, and they don't involve the UFC.

Speaking after ACB 48 this past weekend, Mir spoke to Russian website Cageside.ru and didn't hold back when it came to talking about his current status and whether he is still with the UFC.

"I am, but I am trying to get out of it," Mir said. "They are not going to utilize me as a fighter, and I am not getting any younger. Even if they do not let me go after my suspension, when I'm up and able to fight again, I really would like to step outside.

He can probably beat some bums in Glory.
But guys like Rico would destroy him.

Give it a break Frank.

I don't think frank realizes his grappling threat makes his striking passable. If it wasn't for that he would get slaughtered in the stand up.... more so than usual

I still wonder how the hell did Wanderlei and Crocop get out of their contracts.

 

[Dart Feld]

Give it a break Frank.

That's his mantra.

Frank Mir is about to get caught stealing a lot of strawberries.

maybe if he loads up on the roids again he can beat some absolute cans but realistically he's just going to get brutalized by even low level guys.

Stick to the commentary, bro.

Give it a break Frank.

no...I think retirement would be better

 

[Ken's Sideburns]

It's a shame how his relationship with the UFC is gonna end, he not only had 27 fights there, he's the only fighter besides vitor from a different era still fighting in the UFC, and in my opinion a hall of fame worthy fighter. He should've gotten the Kenny florian treatment

 

[Übermacht]

Make Mir vs Lesnar 3 before he leaves.

 

[JonesBones]

The scumbag USADA threw another legend out of the sport. Fuckin guy can't even feed his family.

I still wonder how the hell did Wanderlei and Crocop get out of their contracts.

Wanderlei accused the ufc of fixing fights. I never thought he would get out either.

 

[Les Vejtibals]

My heart goes out to him.

 

[Yari]

K-1 Murr vs this Kangaroo that wants to avenge his fallen brother.

Yeah, that's some crazy shit right there. He burned down the bridges so badly between him and the UFC. Yet all he had to do was apologize to be released. He must of had a good contract and lawyers..
