Yeah, but commentating and being yourself on TV as a coach are two very different things.

Let’s just say Dana did ask Mir to be a dick. What would be in it for Mir? In the long run it would only hurt Mir more than any short term financial incentive could ever.

Mir is just a dick. Plain and simple.

He’s like the Shooter Mc Gavin of the UFC right now. I think that this really is the real Mir actions speak louder than words and what not. If you watch his body language in any situation it seems to have pompous A-hole written all over it. This is the type of personality that turns people off but also is one of the reasons that at one point Mir was very good because he believes he is better than everyone else. Like a false confidence complex.

i know what you are saying tim he always seemed like a cool guy and a great commntator, but from the first show i think he has come off as a dufus or retard or something, he just seems like a idiot.

I dunno…I can’t imagine Dana WANTING one of his coaches to be an asshole. What good comes of it? Unfortunately, I don’t think this is far from the real Mir.

zalbag – I thought Henderson’s visit was pretty great too…..but did anyone else notice how MIR took credit for bringing him in?!?!? Henderson was already friends with Krzystof! Just one more tick against Mir in my book.

Sal – there have always been pranks on the show. Don’t like it, don’t watch. Just tune in for the last 10 minutes.
And honestly, can you really blame the guys? Even at my age, if I was in the same situation I’d be acting the same way.

Alex – I am 100% with you. Mir was definitely my favorite at the beginning. Not anymore. Nog just seems like SUCH a good guy, with a huge heart. I’m totally behind him now.

steve – after this episode, I HATE Kaplan. There is also a video somewhere on the net I watched where he denies eating the Sushi too! Now he denies being KO’d??? WTF? Is he that dumb? Or does he think WE are? I hope he sees the footage and realizes what an idiot he is.

I really did USED to like Mir….especially when he broke Tim Sylvia’s arm!

Mir did come off like a jackass. I dropped some points in my book. It’s sad because I like him as a fighter.
