‘I will prove that MMA training in fact makes us the best boxers” Frank Mir continued. “And I stand for all MMA fans and fighters. This isn’t just a boxing match, this is the one that will finally prove the skill and dedication of all MMA fighters.”
Mir’s opponent Antonio Tarver also commented on the bout. ‘It’s been a long-time coming. 52 is 52,’ said Tarver. ‘Facts are facts. As pound for pound best heavyweight of my time I am bringing it.
