UFC heavyweight champion Frank Mir was seriously injured last night in a motorcycle accident.
While riding his motorcycle, he was hit by a car and knocked off the bike, and flew 70 feet off his motorcycle, breaking his femur upon landing. Probably the only thing that saved his life was he landed on grass, and suffered no other serious injuries. He underwent surgery to repair the large bone in his leg, which was cracked in two, this afternoon in Las Vegas. The estimates UFC officials have is that he will be out of action for about one year.
No decision has been made regarding the championship that Mir was scheduled to defend in Japan in December against Andrei Arlovsky.

I hope he gets better soon.
