USA Today reports that Frank Mir will be facing Daniel Cormier at a Strikeforce event this fall. It will be the first time that an existing fighter on the UFC roster will fight on a Strikeforce card.
After their encounter, Mir and Cormier will fight in the UFC Heavyweight division. As usual, the fight will air on Showtime.
Frank Mir
Payout Perspective:
It’s an interesting booking decision that should help with the promotion of the Strikeforce event. One would have to think that Mir was asked to do this as it’s unlikely he would voluntarily want to appear on a Strikeforce card. Perhaps a make good for getting the shot at JDS. But, if Mir were to lose, it would put him behind Cormier in the quest to get another shot at JDS
