Fight Recap

On the undercard, former heavyweight champion Frank Mir made quick work of Cheick Kongo, winning by submission with 1:12 gone in the opening round. It was Mir’s first fight since losing the championship to Brock Lesnar in July.

Frank Mir, the former UFC heavyweight champion, and Cheick Kongo engaged in a lot of smack talk before the fight. Mir had derided Kongo as having the worst ground game in the UFC.

Mir, though, used his punching power to win the bout in just 72 seconds. Mir ducked under a Kongo right and then unloaded a huge left hand that sent Kongo to the canvas in a heap.

Mir followed immediately and slapped a guillotine choke on Kongo. Referee Herb Dean saw that Kongo was out from the choke and stopped the bout at 1:12.

“He’s a big, powerful guy and I didn’t want to let that chokehold go and have him ground and pound me,” Mir said.
