Mirko is stepping into the ring! :-)

I don't think Mirkov should have any issues—especially after how he completely shut down Fedorov's GNP.

Look, punk Minowa is an American—he’s barely eighty kilos, yet he’s knocked out plenty of solid fighters... even if he did choke up against some lesser guys once or twice. To name names, he smoked Stefan Leka in seconds, took down that powerhouse Gilbert Yvel, and even handled Giant Silva—who's basically a 230cm, 200kg monster.
His game is all about those lower limb submissions—heel hooks, toe holds, foot locks, knee bars... you name it.

but then again, Mirko just has..................

THOSE MASSIVE LEGS
you can't pull any of those fancy submission tricks on legs like that.
😬

Are you guys gonna broadcast the whole thing, or just one of Mirko's fights like they usually do? 😕 😕 😕

They might even squeeze in an extra fight beforehand—honestly, I’m pretty sure we’ll see one more bout pop up during the broadcast. That’s what Slaven Vujic, who’s doing the play-by-play for the ESPN coverage, mentioned earlier.

I have nothing against Mirko, he's our guy and all that, but Mark Hunt proved a point: if someone is truly powerful, they are just powerful. They can take the heaviest hits and keep moving. I’ve always had a lot of respect for Hunt. He stays calm, lacks any arrogance, and possesses incredible strength. It's like a natural instinct for timing, offense, and defense. He's persistent, proud, and fights with heart.🙏

They can take the heaviest hits and keep coming. I'm a huge fan of Hunt. He’s calm, doesn't have that ego, but he’s built like a tank. Just naturally gifted at timing, offense, defense... a total grinder. Real heart, too...🙏

Come on, even Hunt loves giving an opponent a sarcastic smirk right in their face mid-fight. He's not quite the saint you're painting in that romanticized version of him... though, yeah, calling him a tank? That's spot on.

Good grief, the guy is pushing 300 pounds at barely 5'10"! I mean, how is he supposed to not be strong? It’s just like being up against Mark Hunt (who's like 6'7" and a massive 400 lbs)—unless you're physically handicapped, you're basically fighting a tank.

Or maybe just start growing organic kale. 😁

Best of luck to Mirko!

Off topic... I think I finally figured out why Mirko went down the drain. I managed to get my hands on Special Forces—honestly, it’s probably the worst movie ever made. It’s so bad it likely won't even see a theatrical release. And look, if Mirko is wasting his time and energy on garbage like this, then it’s pretty clear why he's stuck where he is...😢

What could possibly top a skyscraper? 😬

No way

Physicists would probably argue that Skyscraper = Worst Movie Ever = A Constant

=const.

not really a "constant"

Slaven will be commentating on the match!👍 🙂I am absolutely thrilled about this!

Honestly, I’m just here for Mirko... if he chokes again, next time I see him out in town, I'm giving him a slap because he's such a total wimp...🙂>

Dana Cruz3 said:Slaven is gonna weigh in on the fight 👍 🙂yessss!

Wait, are you some kind of hardcore superfan or something? 🤣

Does anyone actually know what time the show kicks off??

Daniel Chavez14 said:What could possibly be worse than a "skyscraper"?😬

Man... you might be surprised.😬 😬 😬

Stupid—even by Anne Nicole Smith standards.😬

zyx said:Physicists would tell you: SKYSCRAPER = WORST MOVIE = CONSTANT

Don't you DARE try telling ME what physicists would say! 😉

Zachary Alvarez8 said:And what exactly makes you think I’m some kind of obsessed fan?🤣

I am actually a friend of his.😁

lol

I know it stands for constant

but I figured most people wouldn't catch on👍
