Just saw the video. Actually I was surprised by Lesner's performance. Considering Mir's experience, and Lesner's lack there of, Brock held his own and dealt out some punishment. The penalty to Lesner showed his lack of experience but he was beating Mir as he said he would do. Mir's kicks looked tentative but after the first shoot I don't blame him.

Lesner gained some very valuable experience from the fight and if he works on his ground game (gaining control and using his weight more) I think he will be less likely to get caught in some of those submission attempts.

Mir showed some of his old form and and why he is dangerous from the ground. I was impressed with his chin too. Great learning experience for Brock and nice work for Mir as he tries to move up in the division.
