    Mir/Barnett OVER 2.5 rounds -105

    taking a chance here.

    think Barnett is going to play this one close to the vest in his UFC debut and keep Mir close to him and clinches, pushing him up against the cage. I think we are going to see both guys lean on each other a lot to try to wear one another down.

    both of these guys ability to finish fights has dropped significantly. just gotta pray Mir just catch Barnett with a bomb.

    ...Barnett hasn't won a decision in five years, and Mir has one decision (over Roy Nelson) in the last seven years.

    yeah but they have all either finished complete scrubs, or have gotten knocked out by superior opponents is really what I am getting it. believe this is a level playing field and neither has an advantage over another, unless Mir lands a huge right.

    Mir has ​an awful chin. Why would he be more likely to get the KO?

    I considered playing this but MD is right about Mir's chin. I wouldn't rule out a submission by Mir. The guy really goes for broke with them. I do think this fight has a good chance of going to a decision.

    I wouldn't be surprised of we see Barnett being the 1st man to make Mir tap. TKO win by Barnett more likely.

    I love how Frank Mir has made Josh Barnett turn into Badr Hari all the sudden.

    I think Mir just goes in the ring to collect a paycheck and get buried. Guy hasn't done dick in a while. Time in UFC is up.
