Frank Mir's first professional boxing match didn't turn out like he hoped. The former UFC heavyweight champion had a chance to show off some skills on the undercard of the Jake Paul-Ben Askren fight, but it wasn't his night. Former heavyweight boxing champion Steve Cunningham used his experience and speed advantage to earn a unanimous decision over Mir at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.
The judges scored the bout 60-54, 60-54, 58-54, per the pay-per-view broadcast.
This was Cunningham's first fight since August 2017. He was a late replacement for Antonio Tarver, who couldn't get a license to fight in Georgia because of his age.
