UFC 135 Fight Parties in Las Vegas at Station Casinos

September 16, 2011 By 3 Comments

Get it on over here for information about our UFC Viewing Parties for this weekend!

JONES VS. RAMPAGE is going to be a wild fight on September 24th. Rampage is a legendary striker who can end a fight in the blink of an eye. Jon Jones has a mile-long wingspan that can tie a guy in knots with his Jiu-Jitsu and wrestling skills. Who goes home with the UFC Light Heavyweight belt?

That’s just the main event, friends. There’s several other key fights on this card that make it worth the trip to see us at any of the Station Casinos UFC 135 Fight Parties. Diaz vs. Gomi is my pick for fight of the night. Both guys have heart and a track record for finishing exciting fights. Tack on another 100 lbs. for the Heavyweights, Ben Rothwell vs. Mark Hunt. These guys are huge, and they’re looking to move up in the ranks.

FINALLY, EH? GEORGES St. Pierre and Josh Koscheck will rematch this Saturday night, December 11 in Montreal. The coaches from this season’s The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) show on Spike TV aren’t friends. Not even close. If you watch the show, you know that these fighters couldn’t be more opposite from one another. GSP is quiet and confident. Koscheck’s trash talk has been “writing checks” all season long, and we are all waiting to see if GSP is ready to cash those “checks” in. The boos will be deafening in St. Pierre’s turf when Kos is announced, but that’s pretty much the only sure thing at UFC 124.

Other matchups we’re excited for on Saturday night: Two towering giants collide! 6’11 Stefan Struve vs. 6’7 Sean McCorkle should be exciting. We’ll see if McCorkle’s 33lbs is an advantage or not. UFC Veterans, Joe “Daddy” Stevenson vs. Mac Danzig could go 100 mph in any direction, to the mat or end by strikes. Jim Miller vs. Charles Oliveira have the MMA blogs buzzing. Many think this will be fight of the night. Also, do. Not. Miss. The Muay Thai battle between Thiago Alves (beat Koscheck awhile back) vs. John Howard (wild, crazy exciting fights). (Author’s Pick for Fight Of the Night – see 5:55 in the video below).*

Where to watch UFC 119 in Las Vegas? Station Casinos, of course!

Go here for information about our UFC Viewing Parties for this weekend!

MMA FANS KNOW that UFC 119 is a fight card that might be overlooked by some fans – but don’t make that mistake – there’s some great match-ups here. This is an event that has kept the MMA rumor sites guessing throughout the summer. For those of you who don’t follow, we’ll try to sum it up for you as quickly as possible:

UFC 119 Las Vegas Viewing Parties at Station Casinos

UFC 119 Las Vegas Viewing Parties at Station Casinos

There’s these two big scary Brazilian brothers, both named Antonio Nogiera (I know, it’s weird) so they go by “Big Nog” (Heavyweight) and “Little Nog” (Light Heavyweight) to make it easier on us Americans. Big Nog was to fight Frank Mir in the main event. Little Nog was the co-main event vs. Ryan Bader. Little Nog’s won 7 straight fights. Bader’s 12-0 and the winner of the Ultimate Fighter show a couple seasons ago. Both are gnarly fighters on a roll, in other words.

Then Big Nog gets hurt in practice, so Croatian kickboxer and Pride Fighting legend, Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovich agreed to step in and give it a go. He’s got tree trunks for legs, and used to be a Croatian Special Forces Law Enforcement Officer. Cro Cop vs. Mir might be the one of the most quotable fights ever. Cro Cop is known for an all-time great pre-fight threat: “Right leg hospital. Left leg cemetery.” Frank Mir went on the record recently saying that Cro Cop can “kick your head into the bleachers.” Two other Ultimate Fighter show alumni, CB Dollaway and Matt Mitrione, will try to climb the ranks in their fights on Saturday night. The rest of the fight card showcases what’s awesome about the middle weight classes of the UFC – anything can happen.  Sean Sherk, Melvin Guillard, Matt Serra and Chris Lytle can either knock their opponents out, or tie them in knots. Anybody’s guess which strategy they pick this Saturday night in Indy.

You can watch UFC 119 in Las Vegas at five Station Casinos locations at Viewing Parties on Saturday, September 25th, live on Pay-Per-View from the Conseco Field House in Indianapolis, Indiana.

A few notes to accompany the info below: pre-sale admission to the Viewing Party at Sunset Station’s Club Madrid starts at 5pm, and you can call ahead for table reservations at GVR and Red Rock parties.

Will it be "Lights Out" for Toney in his UFC debut?

UFC 118′S GOT the lightweight title rematch with Frankie Edgar and BJ Penn, a tough call after their last title fight that Edgar won by decision.

MMA vs. Boxing: How long will James Toney, a very accomplished boxer with legendary hand speed, last in his UFC debut? That seems to be the question surrounding “Lights Out” in his throw-down against accomplished MMA legend, Randy Couture.

As if those two Main Events weren’t enough, Saturday’s under-card is overflowing with some of the most exciting 155 and 170 lb. talent in the UFC: Kenny Florian, Gray Maynard, Nate Diaz , Demian Maia and Marcus Davis all have been known for thrilling finishes.

Watch as five of our Las Vegas Hotel Casinos host Viewing Parties on Saturday, August 28 for UFC 118, live on Pay-Per-View from the TD Garden in Boston.

A few notes to accompany the info below: pre-sale admission to the Viewing Party at Sunset Station’s Club Madrid starts at 5pm, and you can call ahead for table reservations at GVR event. Enjoy!

A Good Man to Have in Your Corner

March 22, 2010 By Leave a Comment

Catch Frank's son in action at one of five of Station Casinos' UFC 111 Viewing Parties on Saturday.

AS SECURITY DIRECTOR at Green Valley Ranch, Frank Mir is in charge of ensuring a safe and secure environment for both guests and Team Members. As father of a heavyweight UFC fighter, he has to control that same urge to “keep anyone from hurting my boy.” Frank Mir III, the son and UFC fighter, is headlining (along with St. Pierre vs. Hardy) this weekend’s UFC 111 card versus Shane Carwin (see Viewing Party locations at Station Casinos and UFC 111 fight card). The SC Blog caught up with the senior Mir to talk about work, his lifetime passion for martial arts and what it’s like to watch his son in the ring.

SC BLOG: How long have you worked at Station Casinos?
FM: 15 years this June.

What are your duties as Security Director at Green Valley Ranch?
I oversee the daily operations of the department. I’m responsible for the standards, policies and procedures and ensuring a safe and secure environment of both guests and Team Members, and company assets.

What do you like about your work?
Interaction with the Team Members, and the development of future leaders.

Over here for information about our UFC Viewing Parties for this weekend!

Your son, Frank III, is a UFC heavyweight fighter, what is your history with martial arts?
I’ve been involved in the martial arts since the age of 13. Even though I trained in various styles, I spend the majority of my training in the art of Kenpo, which is a mixture of various arts. There was a time when I owned a commercial martial art school, however, I felt that teaching commercially water-downed the art since not everyone trained from the heart. I felt a greater accomplishment when I taught a few students, who were truly interested in learning and training, from the house garage.

What are some of the benefits of karate for men or women of any age?
Training in the martial arts opens up your mind awareness, anticipation and adaptability to change. You will learn about your physical limitations as well as your strengths.

How much influence did you have on your son’s growing up and learning his trade?
Being his father and his first teacher in life, I did influence my son’s interest in the martial arts, especially when he spent the majority of his early childhood and teen years in a martial art environment. He listened to discussions of concepts, theories and learning how to understand the mental and physical reactions of the human being in combat.

Was he always a tough kid?
Yes, mentally and physically years ahead of his age group but always had happy-go-lucky approach to life. He never let anyone outside his inner circle know of his training. The approach is ‘on the-need-to-know basis’

How involved are you in your son’s career now?
100%

So you watch his fights. Are you nervous when watching?
Being one of the trainers, I’m at each fight working his corner. I’m nervous at every fight but I just need to control the parental urge of jumping in the ring and keep anyone from hurting my boy. However, I know that I have to keep my emotions in check and my mind clear so I can assist him with instructions during the heat of battle.

What does his mother think about all this fighting?
His mother is also a martial artist and understands Frank’s love for the martial arts and supports him every step of the way.
