Fights that I've seen of Roy when people do well against him is when they move forward. If he makes a mistake ... I'm a lot bigger than (Junior) Dos Santos and I hit a lot harder. I'm a taller, longer athlete ... quicker, I'll constantly pepper him with shots when he comes in and make him pay when I do hit him with something. When I hit Cheick Kongo, the punch alone threw him halfway across the Octagon. On the night of the fight, neither one of us are gonna pull any punches. If I catch him with something, I'll try to hurt him with it.

bowrofl

I would not be surprised if he does hit harder than JDS...but he has nowhere near the technique and accuracy.

+1

Even though frank has really really improved his striking in the last few years jds hands aren't something to mess with. Also he left out the part that jds is not as war torn as he is. I'll be rooting for u frank but at this point in your career I'm not gonna be surprised if Roy finishes u

God I hate this guy, "Yeah my eyes closed punch on Kongo sent him flying across the octagon"

Sticking with Roy

hey nothing wrong with landing an eyes closed knockout punch, just ask Antonio Tarver!!!!!

That said I only root for Frank Mir when his opponent is Brock Lesnar

Frank thinks he's an immortal being now.

He kills men by the hundreds, consumes them with fireballs from his eyes and bolts of lightning from his ass.

What a Bullshit artist...

He might be capable of hitting harder than JDS, maybe not. But that doesn't mean much, when and how you deliver, that's something JDS is miles ahead in. His good, and yes it was a damn good punch with his eyes open pretty sure there was a whole thread that accomplished smashing that myth, punch on Kongo was good, but it was one shot, recreating a one shot, it doesn't happen much, anything can happen.

We need to start using his full name. Francisco Santos Mir III. I can't believe that is actually his name.

"Yes I will have a Cuban Flag on my shorts. Representing fellow Latinos 5/28 @UFC 130!" -Frank Mir, which is actually short for Francisco Santos Mir III. No, I'm not kidding.

Lol.

Nice 1 Freak lol.

Nothing would be better then Mir who thinks he's immortal and this amazing human specimen getting KO'd by Big Country's beer belly fat ass, it'd be priceless..

I don't want a KO. I want big country to sub him off his back.

Except Roy's wrestling is better than Mir's, so if it does go to the ground it's likely to be Roy who ends up on top.

Francisco Santos Mir III is at it again:

"Right now in the UFC I believe I would give him the best fight right
now and that’s not taking anything away from him as I feel he is the
best fighter in the world right now. I would really be hard-pressed to
defeat him, the only reason I pose a bigger threat than some of the
other guys is because we really don’t know how well he defends
submissions. I think it would take someone who could keep him down for
awhile and test how he fights off of his back. Obviously his wrestling
is extraordinary as evidenced in his fight against Brock, but who knows
how well he would do if he were put in a dangerous spot with a good
submission artist. His striking is good, but he does throw short punches
which got him in trouble with Cheick Kongo,
but unfortunately for Kongo he could not stay on his feet. I think
Carwin would be a good match-up for him as well. He punches hard enough
to keep his opponents honest and is difficult to put down. Carwin would
probably have a good chance at stuffing Cain’s shot, but we really don’t
know how well Carwin fights off his back either."

"Who, Frank Mir?
He said what? Look, when a fighter begins either to lose, or not to get
satisfactory results, what does he do to promote himself? He talks. And
it is what he’s doing. Frank Mir is a guy who likes to talk a lot,
talks lots of bullshit and I don’t believe he hits harder than me. He
certainly may hit hard - he is a heavyweight, a former champion and it
is not to be underestimated - but he also is very talkative. I think I
would fight Mir any day - if he qualifies himself to face me because,
thanks to God, I am a bit ahead of him. But if one day he qualifies, I
will fight him with pleasure and will give 100 percent of myself to win
the fight and he would feel who would hit harder, right?"
