Frank Mir talks about his defeat at UFC 111

"I knew from the start that it was better boxer. I knew he had an advantage in short-against the fence. And I said going into the fight, also if it had been shot down against the fence and had not improved my game, would have a problem. " "I think it became an issue on training in one aspect. I think I was very obsessed with that I bring down. And you can see it when it hit me, and I was so calm myself, like 'look, you can not knock me down, an excellent wrestler. I think mentally I was celebrating something like 'Hey, look, now I can keep me down, I have improved my game. " Forget about being beaten in the face. "

"Against the fence, I remember seeing my trainer. He said something like 'ninety seconds. "I thought,' Well I'll wait another 30 seconds. When is a minute, I'm going to steal the round. I'll go ahead and I will leave the gate. Anyway I did not use energy in this round. Four minutes of it, he has spent all the energy so far. A fast, small blast and steal the round judges. I go to the second round and maybe he will be more desperate for a chance and shoot from outside. I'll win and he causes a bit of panic. " And while I'm thinking about this, it hit me-me type a hook and hit hard, really hard. "Frank Mir.

Now that UFC 111 ended, former HW champion Frank Mir tells his last fight in the Octagon in Canada.

Mir's fight against Carwin was filled with an urge to return to the ring to fight Brock Lesnar for the third time. A reason for this Mir won 30 pounds of muscle to compete with former WWE star. Therefore, the on train in some areas that had helped him win his match against Carwin and Lesnar later, but failed to mention other aspects of the fight.

The difference in size between Mir and Lesnar has always been a great hindrance to the former champion. Mir now think they should rethink their game, and is thinking about returning to what he does best, and stick to it: jiu jitsu. He feels that this is your best option to try to compete with such great fighters as Carwin and Lesnar in terms of wrestling and being a fighter muscular guy. "

Who may be contemplating his next opponent, Mir said he may end up facing Ben Rothwell and Gabriel Gonzaga - they both defeats. For those who want to see Mir fight with Junior Dos Santos or Cain Velasquez, these meetings will have to wait, he said. UFC usually does not fight someone who is coming off a win against someone who comes from a defeat.
