Frank Mir is leaving behind an incredible UFC legacy with all these records

Frank Mir’s UFC career is officially over after today’s news that the former two-time heavyweight champion had inked a multi-fight deal with Bellator.

After a nearly 16-year, 27-fight tenure competing against the best inside the octagon, Mir (18-11 MMA, 0-0 BMMA) has moved on to a new chapter that will see him strap on non-UFC gloves for the first time since early 2001.

Mir’s accomplishments under the UFC banner will hold a prominent place in the heavyweight and overall company record books for the foreseeable future. He will likely land a spot in the UFC Hall of Fame when all is said and done, but for now, here’s the statistical legacy Mir leaves behind in the UFC.
