Frank Mir Discusses Fighting Three Times in 2015

– Frank Mir recently spoke with MMAjunkie.com, here are the highlights…

On Not Abandoning His Ground Game: “It’s just that the fight starts there. My last couple fights have turned out to be pretty short so I haven’t seen too much ground. But even in the Bigfoot fight, as soon as I hit him it wasn’t like I was going to wait for the guy to get up and try to keep boxing. I took advantage of the fact that he was on the ground and I passed his guard and started to do some ground and pound. I’m just becoming more well rounded.”

On Fighting a Third Time in 2015: “I think two is a little bit better on the family and on me physically,” Mir said. “An opportunity arose to take this fight and I took it. I made sure I leaned on my corner and camp and family and asked, ‘Hey, what do you guys think about this?’ And everybody was pretty positive about it. That’s what kind of helped me get through it. My wife said it was a good idea because she said, ‘When you train really hard and you have short fights, it’s not enough for you.’ I would rather you have a longer fight because you get it out of your system and you’re a calmer guy around the house.’”
