Mir Retains US National Team Spot Despite Schedule Change
The wrestling assignment came after Mir's scheduled wrestle-off with Kennedy Blades fell through. She will hold the No. 2 position on the 2026-27 U.S. Senior National Team roster heading into the championships.
Mir, who captured an NCAA women's wrestling title before crossing over to MMA, dropped a decision to Alex Apodaca on the Contender Series two months ago. The loss snapped a three-fight winning streak and left her professional record at 4-1.
