Well since Lesnar's striking is going to pass mir's striking. Lesnar would dominate this fight. Frank wont be able to take lesnar down and lesnar can dominate on the feet or in the clinch and prolly get a tko.

I was thinking the same thing. There's no need for Lesnar to go to the ground and risk himself if he fought Mir again. He could easily stand with Frank and drop him repeatedly.

I'd say a second round TKO.

I wish this fight was happening so I could do a permanent AV bet with you.
Brock Lesnar and Cain Velasquez are the future of this division, and that's a very near future.

Unless Lesnar serious worked on his ground game, I don't see any reason why it would go different then the first fight.

Lesnar isn't that great of a striker and obviously has NO submission skills whatsoever. If he knew subs at all Heath would have been finished in round 1. Now when Lesnar gets to fight somebody like Nog your going to see him get owned. Nog would out strike him, and put him into a submission hold pretty quickly. I think Mir will go to his back every time he faces Lesnar and get the sub there. I also think it's sad when we all discuss the future of the division and don't include any (except Nog) of the top ten fighters in that weight class. Affliction is the only place to watch the big men collide any more!

Just as i was expecting everyones riding the Brock Lesnar train...I personally believe Frank Mir would win again by another submission because his Jiu Jitsu is unbelievable and broke Tim Sylvias forearm (a man who clearly outsizes Brock Lesnar due to height) in the first round. People are claiming that Brock Lesnars striking is better than Frank Mir, well if that so Brock Lesnars would attempt to take him down anyways letting Frank Mir feel comfortable once again with his dangerous guard.

I'd like to see him do this, and I'm sure he'd win this way... but it's going to be his instinct to take his opponent down. I'm not sure he'd commit to the feet.

Mir would win by first round submission again. He's still one of the best heavyweights in the UFC.

Brock learned his lesson in the first fight. If Lesnar was smart, he would take this rematch if offered and I think he would win. He should've known in the first fight to avoid the takedown at all costs, but in a rematch he would defend the takedown like his life depended on it.
