UFC 146 - Mir/JDS

I knew Frank Mir lost this fight before it even began, not because I was expecting him to get KO’d like everyone else, quite the contrary I thought Mir had more of a chance then people gave him. But during their respective walkouts JDS had the look of a champion, driven, focused, and determined; Mir on the other hand looked terrified. Before he even set foot in the octagon Frank had the look of a man walking to execution and trying to be brave. Eddard Stark would argue that is the only a time a man can be brave, but it doesn’t change the fact he is still walking to his execution. I think fear was the difference in this fight, as if reality suddenly set in for Mir and he panicked. Props to JDS on his great title defense, he’s the man.
