Frank Mir

Fighter profile of Frank Mir by

Frank Mir spent his entire life around martial arts.  His father owned a kenpo karate school in Las Vegas and competed in the very first UFC.  At age fourteen Frank watched his father get submitted, as did everyone else, by UFC legend Royce Gracie.  This prompted Franks’ father to encourage him to begin training in jiu jitsu.  Frank resisted and they settled on wrestling, and Frank won the state wrestling title in 2005 at age (13).  He also began training in jiu jitsu soon after. 

Frank’s first professional fight was on 2012-08-04  Mir won by Submission (RNC) 1st round in 4:19 . Frank then  on 2012-09-08 followed he`s debut victory by also winning by submission in the  1st round 00:55sec Submission (Arm Triangle).Frank told his manager Michael Knight   he has had enough of the small time and he wanted to enter the big stage,so his manger then went on to ask the (BFT) org that his client is ready for the step up in competition so they obliged in signing him to a contract.He debut that night against an opponent that was 6-2 but true to form, Frank went on to win in  spectacular style winning by  Submission (Americana) and also picking up Submission Of The Night  in only 00:47sec, showing once again he is not to be messed with on the ground.
