I think he will do better in the future. I was just happy I got to meet Nog a week before the fight.

As they mentioned it all came down to experience. Even Mir said he could have pulled out of that leg lock if he'd had a bit more time under his belt.
Up until the point of the leg lock he was doing very well both technically and physically, so I am actually looking forward to seeing where it goes in the future.

I just watched it on youtube, i cant believe they took a point off for hit the back of the head with no warning! Mazagatti is usually a good ref too, but i didnt like that!

Re: Ufc 81
HAHAHAHA... Yeah that bugged me... What bugged me was Mir whining, "He hit me in the back of the head" which was what made the ref call it.
I didn't see the youtube version, so I don't know if it was as audible as on a surround sound... But... Wow... BABY...
I wasn't sure I liked Mir... But that just made me really not like him... Pull the tough guy thug act, then when you accidentally get hit by a shot to the back of the head whine to the ref for a time out...
With a little experience on Brock's part things like this won't factor in... If that call hadn't been made he might have been the one to have it in under a minute and thirty.
