Brock Lesnar is a decorated NCAA wrestling champion and former professional wrestler — has indicated that he wants to fight top competition. It seems that he has got just that, Now he will get his chance with former heavyweight champion Frank Mir an experienced Brazilian jiu-jitsu fighter with years of professional fight experience to his credit.

The 28-year-old's return to the UFC thus far has been a mixed bag. His 2-2 record includes a lopsided first-round TKO loss to Brandon Vera, but back in August, Mir bounced back for a quick and impressive submission victory (via kimura) over Antoni Hardonk at UFC 74.
