That’s kind of harsh, Frank.

completely unacceptable. mir needs a stern talking to. talking trash is one thing. talking about killing somoene in the octagon is completely across the line. i wouldn’t fight him if i were lesnar, just to spite him for taking it this far.

Frank Mir is pulling an Andy Kaufman…Brock and Frank are best buds behind the scenes :p

it’s shocking how much of what mir hates about brock can easily be said about mir himself. i think mere is just trying to out-douche lesnar to get in his head before their next fight. we’re going to need hip-waders before this thing actually happens.

i don’t like the term “political correctness”. it’s not about politics, it’s about money. if you say something that the majority of the money paying consumers vehemently disagrees with or finds offensive, then your ability to make money for yourself and others is compromised. it’s a way for assholes to blame some nebulous “political” entity for the fact that they say things that make them look like assholes. i’m sure brock has done it too.

It may be pre fight hype, but this is still in very poor taste, and crosses the line. Mentioning that you want someone to die is classless. Brock will be ever present in Mir’s head, and as a result, we’ll get to hear more of these types of comments in the future.

How Shane Carwin is going to react to Mir’s statements. After all, Carwin has been very emphatic about unacceptable antics and fighter reactions. You know, everyone was dogging Lesnar because of what he did at UFC 100, which I’ll admit, it was over the top and just plain stupid. Now, he apologized afterwards. Lesnar is the type of jock that thinks after he does things, you can just tell from hearing his interviews etc. Now Mir is really starting to disturb me.

At first, his trash talk was ok, because afterall….it’s part of the fight game.
Then he started bashing Lesnar after he beat him.
Then Lesnar hands Mir the “Horseshoe” and instead of being humbeled by the loss; Mir goes beyond the trash talk with some creepy statements. Mir becomes obsessed with Lesnar.
Now this? Wishing another mans death in the ring and saying that he wants to break his neck?

I’d be pretty pissed off if I were Dana. You know when you’re trying to do everything in your power to legalize MMA in other states; Statements like these can really put a damper on the progress. Sure Lesnar dogged the sponsors and flipped the bird on the fans, but in no moments has he ever said anything as unacceptable as Frank Mir.

Mir is supposed to represent a role model? Or a good ambassador of MMA? With statements like these; It makes me think that Frank should be in counseling instead of being in the ring.

There is a fine line between trash talking, and threatening someone. It’s possible to die in the octagon. Get hit in the wrong place, or hold a choke at a wrong angle and you can really compromise someones career. Hearing Frank Mir on multiple occassions speaking about threatening Lesnar’s career, should call for Dana and the powers that be to have a talk with Mir and see where he’s at.

Now….I really hope that Carwin KO’s him. Maybe then will Mir be obsessed with someone else…..Geez…what a weirdo!

a fight noone really wanted to see a rubber match of after ufc 100 frank is hyping up in a good way

if he can beat carwin at 111 u know for a fact brock is coming into the ring to have a staredown with mir and that’ll be intense as hell

personally i wanna see brock fight someone else before this rubber match since hes only fought 4 ppl in his career

Frank Mir has lost his talking privileges…. no talking for 3 months.

I can see these comments plastered all over negative MMA articles.

I’m a fan of Mir’s ever since he entered the octagon for the very first time. But to say you want someone to die is alittle much. Mir has lost all his marbles when it comes to Brock. Can’t wait to see the third and final fight because according to Mir he’s going to break Brocks neck.

to be careful, BROCKLESNAR might re insert a few horseshoes in their next match. It might hurt but should help with the weight gain.

He’s hyping up a possible bouth with Lesnar . Think about it – the beating he took was one of the worst , most one sided beatings I’ve ever seen . He was simply destroyed – and not by a one puncher , by 1 and half rounds of DOMINANCE. So he needs to convince people (and himself !) that he has anything for Lesnar another time . He might mean what he said , but he’s also choosing to say it to the public to sell the fight .
Is it “bad” for the sport? Who knows . Mike Tyson was the most popular boxer in the last decades and he was an absolute monster – he kept talking about trying to throw a hard enough uppercut to his opponents’ nose so their nose penetrates their brain and they’d die(I swear , I heard him say that in an interview) , and what about the ear-biting ? Tyson and his persona sold fights , period . Muhammed may have never talked about wanting to kill a man but he was a dick that’s for sure.

It’s all talk to hype a possible 3rd fight with Brock. By Mir making that crazy comment I think Brock would respond with taking that third fight with Mir.

be big, obnoxious and angry.’ That’s not right how I do things.

was it not in January that Mir said he wishes no ill will to Lesnar,because after all he has a family blah blah.and then for him to come out and want to kill the guys seems weird,i think he has kinda gone off the deep end.what if he loses to Carwin?Lesnar fight would be a long ways away,he should concentrate on Carwin becuase that aint no walk in the park.

Based on past PPV results it seems safe to say Brock is the largest PPV draw in MMA but could this make Brock and even larger PPV draw?

I guess I’m wondering if this could turn Brock into the guy everybody is cheering for and if that happens could it make him an even bigger draw.

Here’s a crazy idea….but just maybe at this point Mir should be focusing on Carwin instead of trying to “hype up” a potential third bout with Lesnar. All this trash talk is going to make Mir look awfully stupid if Carwin beats the snot out of him and Mir never gets his rubber match.

For all the people that said Lesnar was bad for the sport…..then what is this guy? This is insane…and way out of line. This is not the kind of press we need on MMA as a sport. A lot of people would be sickened by these remarks…and would never give this sport a chance if they come across this.

He’s only hurting the sport with such ridiculous comments. I only wonder what will happen to the guy if he loses to Lesnar…or by God…Carwin…wonder if he even remembers he’s fighting him in a few weeks…?

how much Brock was criticized and mocked about his “Wrestling Entertainment” background. Look at what Mir’s resorting too….this sounds like a page right out of the old Vince McMahon’s WWE script.

I think Frank is genuine though. Genuinely insane…..these statements are crazy….
