Agree with your pick but your reasoning is terrible.

Nogueira has trained with the best, and after over 30 fights has never been finished, even Fedor could not do it to him. I have never seen Nogueira gas, I have never seen Nogueira give up, and he has never been finished. He got his black belt from Del la Riva, a well known blackbelt. What can Mir do in this fight? Absolutely nothing.

Big Nog is no joke,Tough guy,World Class BJJ and very good stand up boxing.This is going to much with Mir to handle even after 2 huge wins over Brock and Hardonk.Mir also has one of the most best ground games in the Heavyweight division. His condition has been suspect and his stand up is know where Nogs stand up is. Mir is a very smart guy/fighter and has improved his stand up and conditioning and really wants to be champ again,But i fell Nog is going to be to much to handle on his feet and will score the early Ko/TKO in the first or second rnd or wear Mir down and submit him bye armbar in the 4th or 5th rnd.
