Probably put on more muscle. One might think it would be a good idea to improve one's own strength in an attempt to submit big Brock.

...Frank was never much smaller than that either, though.

At UFC 43 Mir weighed in at 248. So I'd say a few years and 7 pounds is not that much. Plus there's probably a pound or so of metal in his leg. Mir looks like he's in great shape and I hope we see Brock tapping.

Watch the weigh in video on the UFC website. Mir may have come in at 255 but he is in one of the best shapes I've seen him in. Definitely the best shape he has been in since the accident.... he had abs lol!

He did look good at the weigh-ins. War Mir.

Speaking of the weigh-ins....I really hope Martin gets his ass KO'd by Eastman after that shove. Whats his problem? Little squeaky voice syndrome?

After watching the video I have to say he is in rather good shape. Here another question: How much do you think Brock will weigh when they start the fight? Im guessing 280+

Probably 265 or 270, the UFC all access said he burns weight from 265 when he trains, so he has to eat like a pig and drink a tonne of water to keep his weight up.

he weighed in at 295 when he was a professional wrestler, but i imagine he was on the juice then. wasn't he busted by the po-po with roids in his car?

He was arrested for recieving a large shipment of roids (see avatar) but the charges were dropped because all of the supplement they tested were in fact legal stuff so I dont know if he ever was really on the juice or not.

Yeah, Mir looks like he's really upped his fitness training.

Ok...I am hoping for a Lesnar victory, but come on! You have some doubt that he was juicing while he was a pro wrestler? He was beyond huge and must have had 50 pounds of extra muscle over what he had in college.

Normally, I would say that Mir is going to throw his opponent around like a sack of flour, but damn, Lesnar looks huge even (presumably) without the juice.

What are the odds on Lesnar slamming Mir to get out of a triangle or arm bar?
