Mir's power is serious, both in his punches and his ability to crank the crap out of half-on submissions to finish opponents. Impressive.
Going into this fight I was surprised how many people were saying Mir wouldn't be able to hang with Kongo. I was confident in picking Mir to win by early submission.
Wow, what a major win for Mir getting the best of Kongo with the striking and a submission.
I can see a rematch with Nogueira or Lesnar.
R:3 A:3- S:3 T:3
