UFC: Mir compares Lesnar to Junie Browning

UFC interim heavyweight champ Frank Mir continued his war of words with Brock Lesnar, comparing the current heavyweight champ with former "The Ultimate Fighter" show-off Junie Browning.

"(Lesnar) represents things that I don't," Mir said in an interview with Dave Farra of RawVegas.tv. "He gets paid more than I do. ... Junie Browning was highlighted on the show and didn't even win the reality show."

"Efrain Escudero won the reality show and right now do most people know who Efrain is? So is that really teaching people in our sport to act respectful and to be a martial artist? That has to be a choice on your own. It actually probably hurts my pocketbook at the end of the day. But again, I don't look down on Brock for doing things like that, because guess what? Brock's going to make more money than I am when we fight each other."
