That would be a badass fight. I would love to see Mir vs. Cormier on FOX. I would also love to see Cormier against Jones, but I'm gueesing Cormier would have a hard time making 205, and him staying at HW proves it to certain point.
Personally not excited for this fight. I see no way Mir will be able to take this fight. Cormier has shown to have decent stand up, and he dictates where the fight takes place. Mir can't take him down and use his ground game where he has the advantage. Very surprised Mir wants this fight to be honest.

Don't under estimate Mir, I though Nelson was going to explode his chin, and he beat him. While Cormier has the skill set to beat anybody, Mir is a skill veteran with one of the best BJJ in MMA.
LEKS - Can't wait till this hype train gets derailed.....
Lol. Son ran thru the strikeforce gp out of no where.
He is top two heavies in the world. Likely number 1.
Only beasts smash big foot and dominate Barnett.
Mir will get crunched and there is only a small handful of fighters that will even give DC a run at this point.
Even Cain is unlikely to crowd and out wrestle the guy. He would have to stand and trade shots. I'd have to give DC the definitive edge in this scenario.
Calling the dude "hype" at this point is trollish.
