Lightbulb Frank Mir vs Shane Carwin....thoughts???

Ok, tomorrow night it's Mir vs Carwin. Who are you guys pulling for??? As for me it's hard to say because I want to see Mir get beatdown by Brock Lesnar just 1 more time!!! But to do that Mir has to beat Shane Carwin tomorrow night. But, I would still like to see Carwin put a beatdown on Frank Mir too. So, what do you guys think???

Carwin will win and be a better fight with Lesnar than Mir.

No disrespect to Mir, as I like him as a fighter, commentator and coach. But I think his best days in the ring are behind him.

Honestly, his surprise submission of Lesnar in their first bout would never happen again. Lesnar is better trained and more experienced than Mir, and would demolish Mir.

Another heavyweight to watch is Junior Dos Santos. He's a beast who will be champion someday, even if he can't beat Lesnar right now.

He got fired from WEC commentating because of his recent death threats on brock lesnar. Mir will never beat Lesnar again.

Carwin wins by TKO. GSP win by submission.

I would like to see Carwin take it. If it makes it past the first round his chances aren't good though. Frank Mir isn't the same fighter he was when he fought Brock the last two times. He has gained a considerable amount of weight and is on a mission to beat Lesnar. As for some of the other fights my picks are..

GSP vs Hardy = GSP to win
Fitch vs Saunders = Saunders
Almeida vs Brown = Brown
Diaz vs Markham = Diaz

Dan Hardy is a better submission artist than GSP, but GSP will never get to his back so GSP will win by TKO. Frank Mir is a great fighter, but he is just too ****y and is not smart when it comes how to win a fight against a great competitor like Carwin!

I guess it's no surprise that GSP won his battle, I was sure hoping for something(anything) other then a judges decision though.

I gotta hand it to Hardy he did really well. And what a heart! Man, he should have tapped a couple of times but held in there. I wonder how his arm feels today?? Probably very sore!

No surprise with Carwin.
