Frank Mir scored a huge win over Minotauro Nogueira this weekend at UFC 140. He did it in style. Nogueira had landed a couple good punches on Mir that put him on the ground. Nogueira then jumped on Mir and took his back. Somehow Mir recovered from the punches and reversed Nogueira's hold and put him in a kimura. After rolling around for a few seconds Mir finished the fight by breaking Nogueira's arm. Not a good way to go out. Mir has now won three strait fights and is looking for another shot at the big man, Brock Lesnar.
