We’re less than a few hours from the start of UFC 70: “Nations Collide,” which will begin at about 12:45 p.m. EST from the Manchester Evening News (M.E.N) arena Manchester, England.
The main card and main event, which features the heavyweight showdown between Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic and Gabriel Gonzaga, will air via tape delay for free on Spike television at 9 p.m.
It’s important to note that the show will be broadcast at 9 p.m. on both coasts, according to Dave Doyle at FOXSports.com.
Here’s the snip:
“Something for people on the West Coast to keep in mind on Saturday: Spike TV has split feeds for the East Coast and West Coast. So that means both the East and West Coasts will be getting the show at 9 p.m. local time tomorrow, it is NOT 9PM Eastern/6 Pacific. DirecTV carries both feeds, so if you have a dish, you’re in luck.”
We’ll begin to post the LIVE results soon — all you have to do is click the jump at the bottom of the page.
These are potential spoilers, especially if you plan to watch the show this evening. Therefore, DO NOT click the link below if you don’t want to know who won the fights until later tonight.
In addition, I suggest not clicking on the comments section in any of the posts because there might be readers who are talking about the results.
We also plan to post the tape-delayed results — with commentary — later on this evening for the folks who can wait for the broadcast.
This post WILL NOT include spoilers.
That’s it … enjoy the show and don’t forget to stop by and share your thoughts on the action here at UFCmania.

I can’t wait!
same here Stafo. anyone care to call the fight of the night? in my opinion,i think the fight of the night will be between arlovski & werdum. i would really like to see a cro cop/arlovski fight later this year.
I am torn between the Arlovski fight and the Cro Cop fight. The Bisping/Sinosic is going to be good too. I predict a short fight for Crop Cop (left kick to the head - KO) and Arlovski TKO and Bisping working Sinosic but getting a TKO.
I am really excited about this
Oh my god i hope AA can win this fight!
Hmmm…Werdum will upset AA, he is far underated…he would deffinately beat Gonzaga
Heath and Machida
Let them go
AA SHALL PROVAIL IN THIS FIGHT BY THE BLOOD OF 10,000 IRAQY WOMEN AND CHILDREN I SWEAR IT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Never!……….. AA is going down! down! my friend, beware of the new talent of Werdum.
putting a def. win by someones name while alll these upsets are going on is asking for them to be taken down
Find Makarska on the Croatian coast. You could find me in good and beautiful company waiting to see how long it’s gonna take Mirko to walk out of the cage!
I don’t think I’ll have time to finish my beer!
Does anyone what time the fights are the dish? I have to work tonight and would really like to watch the fights. Im on Bell Express Vu

Never would have imagined Kongo\Silva going three rounds. Must be another Sylvia\Arlovski III.
so wait AA is next? where will machita end up? and elvis
I’m gonna break the F5 key on my keyboard soon…
nevermind machida wins by decesion
I really hope AA takes this. Id just love to see him and Cro Cop fight with the title on the line.
Yeah, I do hate to say this, but Sherdog is the getting the results up quick.
and I know MTU will probably shit a brick if AA wins as well.
Michael Bisping vs. Elvis Sinosic
Light Heavyweight Fight
Round One:
Here we go!
Sinosic throws some nice leg kicks; he grabs Bisping’s head for a clinch and tries for some knees, but Bisping scores a takedown and goes to work from atop Sinosic.
He is active in Sinosic’s guard, looking to keep some range for effective punching and elbowing. Sinosic, however, is also active—throwing the occasional shot from the bottom.
At the 2 minute mark, Bisping opens up and unloads some big, relentless shots. Sinosic hangs on, but he needs to do something to get out of this position.
Bisping continues opening up for blows, and Sinosic is now bloodied up. The UK crowd, obviously pro-Bisping, is loving this.
The TUF3 winner unloads with a flurry; Sinosic is just barely saved by the bell.
Round Two:
They come out swinging. Bisping lands a jab, and then follows up with more shots and a mid-high kick. Sinosic, however, catches Bisping with a knee that drops him to his back. Sinosic can’t get to Bisping in time to force a stoppage, but he does get on top of Bisping. He locks in a kimura, but he loses it before Bisping is interested in tapping.
Sinosic then advances to Bisping’s back. He gets a hook in, but due to being tired, he can’t finish Bisping. Bisping reverses and is now raining vicious blows from inside of Sinosic’s guard. The crowd roars as Bisping gets the stoppage.
According to sherdog Michida beat Heath by decision. I thought Arlovski-Werdum was up next???
Bisping already won, KO RD2 read above breakdown, AA is up next
shit… i wanted elvis
dammit my man elvis’s record falls again haha

I get my post deleted, but you leave this up? Careful, or this site is gonna become Sherdog 2. That’s all I meant by “insightful commentary” from the post you deleted.
UFC President Dana White confirms that Matt Serra and Matt Hughes will serve as coaches for The Ultimate Fighter 6 (a Welterweight tournament).
Serra talks about his positive spirits following the Welterweight Championship title win. He also expresses excitement for the chance to fight Matt Hughes. While previous opponents Chris Lytle and Georges St. Pierre are nice guys, Serra says that Hughes is a “dick” and he feels like a winner just for having the opportunity to hit Hughes in the face.

Dude dont take it personal, you and a lot of the vets here are expecting Werdum to win this fight according to past post. Regardless it was just a joke man. Sorry!!!

Dana made that announcement during UFC 70 we will all see it on spike tonight
Most of the vets here know there shit. So ill be a little surprized if AA wins.
Round One:
They circle as this thing gets underway.
Arlovski lands an inside leg kick; Werdum sends one right back.
They move together, and Werdum actually gets the better of a clinched boxing exchange. Werdum forces Arlovski into the cage and then nails The Pitbull with an elbow and right hand. He backs away, and then hits a right leg kick.
Arlovski looks for a left handed body shot. He then misses on a kick to the midsection. Leg kick from Arlovski, followed by a jab to the face.
The former UFC Champion controls the remainder of the round, connecting with strikes.
Eat me … where are you?
[quote post=”1874″]Dana made that announcement during UFC 70 we will all see it on spike tonight [/quote]
I believe it, but will picking the fighter, filming, editing, its nine months away. No WW title defense for nine months for Serra?

AA takes Werdum By decision.
Their play by play crapped out for Rds 2 and three but here is the final result
Andrei Arlovski won via unanimous decision.
please leave link for ppl without tv now
for crocop
Well, damn. At least now we get Mirko vs AA at some point.
wow, i thought werdum was going to handle arlovski. former champ finally beats a top contender beside Sylvia … congrats.
Man, I love live feeds over the internet. Zikic just won the title from Cyborg via maj dec.
I just dont get why everyone is so suprised AA won.
just got word arlovski got booed pretty hard after the decision — apparently fought “not to lose.”
[quote comment=”39121″]I just dont get why everyone is so suprised AA won.[/quote]
Find out who Fabricio Werdum is, look at AA’s record, then ask yourself the question again. FW has been in against the best in the world. This was AA’s first real test since Rizzo and Rodriguez, both of whom he lost to. Then back to back losses to Ogre, well you get it now, I hope.
what do you think the time table is on getting the cro cop decision out
Im not saying Werdum is not good dude, I know who he is, im saying AA is really good. He has always been an explosive fighter with excellent standup.
ALthough I have to admit, the fact that he won off a descision suprised me alot. I expect that if he was gonna win, it would be off a knockout. That other post says he apparenlty fought not to lose, that explains it a little bit.
Thats what you get after your used to fighting Silvia for so long.
Vitor Belfort v Ivan Serati up next at Cage Rage. I’ll just post the results for those not streaming or able to get by that screwed up scripting error on ProElite’s main page.
He just came out … 20 minutes tops.
i dont know y the crowd would boo arlovski if he fought “not to lose”….most of his fights are only one round except for the one sylvia fight…..maybe he figured he could win a decision for once
OF COURSE AA WON, HE IS GANGSTER
Who just came out? CC?
[quote comment=”39140″]Who just came out? CC?[/quote]
Yes … just got an email that he came to Wild boys.
oh my god. cro cop lost. i amg oing to fucking cry
Vitor via vicios GNP, ref stoppage.
I can see that this match is going to a decision. Because it’s been a good 14 minutes worth of fighting.. So who knows? Lets hope cro cop pulls it out.
Cro Crap Got knocked the F@ck out via head kick 1rd
CRO COP GOT KNOCKED OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NO! NO! NO! i totally would be broke if bet on this event. WHY! dammit.
OMG, Sherdog confirms it. KO via head kick from Ganzaga.
Oh my God.
Well, im an hour late to work. It was all worth it. Later everybody.
Mirko Cro Cop is announced via a video montage with plenty of PRIDE footage. The lights go out, and the Croatian enters to Duran Duran’s “Wild Boys.”
R1 - Gonzaga pushes the action; Cro Cop circling. Cro Cop throws a kick to the body which Gonzaga catches and takes him down off. Gonzaga in Cro Cop’s guard working elbows with success to the left side of his head. Cro Cop just attempting to tie him up. Cro Cop is now being worked against the fence.
Ref stands them up as Gonzaga is not improving position. Gonzaga knocks out Cro Cop with a right high kick. Cro Cop is out cold. Medics are in the cage. After a bit, Cro Cop revives and is on his knee.
Gabriel Gonzaga def. Mirko “Cro Cop” Filpovic - KO 4:51 R1
UFC Heavyweight Champion Randy Couture tells Gonzaga that he thinks he’s a tougher fight for him and he looks forward to meeting him. Gonzaga thanked him and said he read on the website the Couture picked him!
UFC just got boring. im totally not excited at all about randy vs gonzaga. LAME. who is cro cop going to fight now.. tim sylvia? EW.
UN freaking BELIEVEABLE!!
I cant belive it … WTF! Year of the upset. Heard Cro Cop is unconcious “Sean Salmon-style.” Those aren’t my words. Unbelievable. Apparently Couture and Gonzaga are talking in the OCtagon.
Underdogs in the UFC have to be hitting more than any other sporting event ever…this is crazy

Doesnt matter anymore who else he beat, he just beat Cro-Cop
CC finally found out what it feels like to get headkicked and wake up on his back
First Franklin, then Hughes, then Sylvia, then GSP, now Cro Cop whos next???
Couture v Gonzaga just put me to sleep. Anything can and will happen in MMA. All it’s been lately in every MMA is upset after upset.
Just wanted to know Gonzaga’s background.
I am very upset tonight.
Mirco Cro Cop lost his second fight in the UFC and his challenger status for the Heavy Weight title. I have to say that I am very impressed by Gonzaga who’d have thought he’d knock Cro Cop out with a head kick. I really believed Mirco would walk through him. I’ve watched all Mirko’s fights and his strength is as a striker I never though anyone had what it took to stand up and fight with him. The irony. UFC really is a different animal to Pride and K1. Much respect to the UFC. Where does Mirko go from here? Will Randy be able to beat Gonzaga? I need a beer!
Good fight Bisping.
Bad fight Arlovski - his he scared of something.
I told you I was gonna knock his ASS OUT!
it will be cool/interesting to see if that KO will air on sportscenter
Excellent fight by Gonzaga. Brilliant high kick. I watched on TV. I am disappointed of course since I am Croat and naturally I am for Mirko. Strange year this, more upsets than ever. Good job Gonzaga once again.
WOW, I AM IN A LOST FOR WORDS THAT CRO COP GOT KNOCKED OUT BY HIS OWN SIGNATURE MOVE, I HEAD KICK TO THE HEAD!
IT WAS IN THE FIRST FUCKING ROUND!! WOW
i think upsets are good for the sport
i want redemption. that UFC vs PRIDE thing. cro cop vs fedor. he needs to win
Turner beats Tank via TKO. Tank gassed after 1 1/2 minutes, pathetic.
Well that’s it. I’m going back to real estate.

WTF?!?!?! I KNEW GONZAGA WAS GOING TO BEAT CC! i had this very sick/gutsy feeling in my stomach all week bout the cc/gonzaga fight. the way everything has played out in the UFC this year so far, i knew that serra def. gsp wasnt the last of the upsets this year. this is mma at its best. the way all this is turning out to be,i wouldnt be surprised if jackson beats liddell. im SPEECHLESS!

This was hardly lucky shot. Gonzaga dominated Mirko. His victory is fair and squire. Mirko was to passive here, and he didnt defend very good from elbows from ground.
I dont think Couture/Gonzaga is going to be a very exiting fight, but Arlovski / Cro Cop , that I like so it’s works out OK.

still though…
GSP and Cro Cop are cleary the best in their division
franklin and hughes are not
there will always be upsets in the UFC… or maybe the catch phrase “styles make fights” is coming back again
An interesting thing, the odds all week had been swinging to Gonzaga on Desert Dogs site. It was like -650 for Mirko on Monday or so, but ended at -500. Is someone injecting the favorites lately ( GSP, Sylvia, Mirko ) with minute quantities of Valium or something before their fights?
arlovski was boring - did nothing round 2 or 3. disapointn.
gonzaga should be given respect - pushed the action- got him to ground and bloodied up cro cop a bit before landing the perfect kick.
gonzaga awsum skills on the ground - and as seen before and now with this win- has strikes.
anybody who is crying about arlovski vs cro cop - get over it. arlovski was awful - round 2 and 3 was like sylvia/arlovski 3- just boos and no action.
give arlovski a fight with cro cop next.
gonzaga and couture will be a great fight.
nothing lucky about that win.

Man … I officially resign from MMA. Screw this, you can find me at a Muay Thai camp somewhere in the swamps of thailand this summer. Bye guys.
Can anyone confirm that Mirko was taken to the hospital after having a seizure backstage? I dont put much into this rumor, but anyone here anything? Especially anyone in the UK.
i cant beleive crocop got ko’d.year of the upsets continues.hopefully crocop vs arlovski next.i think crocop was overconfident in the ufc anyway hopefully he will come back even stronger after dis if anyone else hears anyting else about the rumour dat mirko had a seizure keep us posted.p.s wat u tink was fight of da nite……..

thanks MMA Fan! that kick was totally unexpected. i hope that rumour turns out to be false. that clip totally looks like a cro cop fight clip,except this time cro cop was on the receiving end of the kick. but anyone from the UK,please keep us posted on this serious rumour. thanks.
Here is the fight:
http://dnevnik.hr/naslovnica/vijesti/sport/20070421_15882_44494.php
what rumour are you talking about KO hex? im from the UK
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? this year has been INSANE guys i mean it’s breath taking speechless, etc. etc. Gonzaga made Cro Cop look like a friggen rookie…i still think that Couture will beat Gonzaga though well the way shits goin down this year i aint putting money on nobodey…I love the UFC except for when it runs off to HBO lol
i just hate this mannnnnnn. cro cop takes out minowa. some fat bastard. silva. and barnett in one night and he doesnt get passed GONZAGA. his BJJ coach werdum beat him pretty bad. this sucks. AND mirko’s leg/ankle is SCREWED. his ankle was completely turned around and HERB DEANS face was like holy mother of god! so he’ll probably be out for atleast 6 months. which sucks. if he misses a part in the UFC vs PRIDE ill cry.
dean,im talkin bout the rumour that says that cro cop got sent to the hospital because he suffered a seizure backstage after the fight.
nah couture NEEDS to win. so crocop can climb the ranks again and we’ll have ourselves a super fight. a real super fight
Just got back from UFC 70….The undercard was actually better than the main event. The MEN was pretty much full and the atmosphere was brilliant. The 1st main fight on the card was pretty disappointing Assuerio Silva Vs Check Kongo…dont know if you are going to get to hear it on the TV but they were booed after a while for the total lack of action. The Lyoto Vs David Heath fight was pretty much the same but probably a bit worse. There was lots of dancing around but very little action. the crowd were slow clapping them for most of the fight trying to get a little action going. Dana Whites face was a picture as his UFC 70 pay per view was getting off to a pretty shaky start. Michael Bisping saved the day however with a real good fight against Elvis. The roof nearly lifted off for the home town boy as he ground and pounded Elvis in the 1st round only to then get dropped in the 2nd and caught in a kimora that I personally thought was going to end the fight. He managed to get top position though and pounded Elvis some more, I thought they stopped it a little early util I saw Elvis’s face as he walked past me. It was a mess…good call by the ref there then.
Arlovski vs Werdum was a bit of a lame duck as well. Not that much action. Arlovski seems to have lost that aura he once had and does not look the same fighter since he lost to Tim Slyvia. He apologised to the crowd however and he still got a loud cheer from the crowd in appreciation.
and now for the main event…..well what can I say about that…
F**K ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Never in a million years did I expect it to end like it did.
Cro cop was never in the fight for one second…What the Hell was I seeing!
Gonzaga was getting the better of the stand up with Mirko not throwing anything at all until a leg kick which gonzaga catches and puts Mirko on his back….he then spends the next 3 minutes elbowing Mirkos face. the ref stands it up and then 5 seconds later gonzaga throws a right leg kick to Cro Cops head and he is out cold before he hits the mat. It was sick I am telling you…proper brutal stuff…I thought he had broke his ankle too cause as he hit the mat it was bent somewhere where you really dont want your ankle to be…I honestly thought he was dead….he did not move for like 5 minutes…even 10 minutes later he needed help walking from the ring as he was still unsteady on his feet….I was absolutely gutted for him I am telling you…
Well what more can I say….Thats MMA for you….
BTW…Randy got a standing ovation from a very receptive Manchester crowd…
Bring on UFC 71 !!!!!!!!!

Yeah why would it take two years??? I want to KO him again.
cro cop is done
no way he ever comes back from that injury
shawn livingston is out 2 years from the NBA
joe theisman out forever
cro cops was just as bad
i think he is done
i mean it depends…
how many ligament or tendons are damaged and how bad?
did any arteries get damaged?
so many questions
maybe i shouldnt speculate, but it just looks so bad.
best case scenario is that it is only bone… i still think if it was bone only it would still take 6-12 months before he could come back
or hopefully im totally wrong…
ill check back again after i watch it on the plasme tonight
im sure UFC mania will get us the medical clearance news in the next couple weeks.
im just saying… if i had to guess… it doesnt look good
what happened to cro cops ankle?? please update me..thx
watch the clip of the fight dude
gross ankle injury, maybe knee too
This is no way resembles a Livingston injury. At worse, it looks like an ACL tear with a medial meniscus tear. Nowadays, this is an eight month recovery. He’l be back.
who won
who won the Gabriel Gonzaga V Mirko Filipovic match??
was it first round finish???
mirko cro cop lost to gabriel gonzaga in 4:51 in the 1st round my a devistating head kick. i thought mirko cro cop had good head kicks?
The UFC sucks I am done with it Pride was so much better, more skill invovled. The cage , the rules, and weird match ups in the UFC are going to make it fail in the years to come. Cro Cop loses to Gonzaga? What that doesn’t even make sense. Bottom line the UFC sucks!
[quote comment=”39327″]This is no way resembles a Livingston injury. At worse, it looks like an ACL tear with a medial meniscus tear. Nowadays, this is an eight month recovery. He’l be back.[/quote]
did you see the ankle?
mirko is not staying out dumbasses. no fucking way. his ankle will heal. and… u know hes not leaving mma until he gets his rematch with fedor.

man i cant wait for ultimate knockouts 5 that video will be stacked. cro cop gt knocked out by the best kick ive ever seen
Did you hear that???
The sound of Dana White screaming “SH*******TTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I told you guys I would laugh if your Cro Cop lost to this guy so…HaHaHa
That was the most devastating head kick I have ever seen.
i didnt know CroCop walked off
i take back everything i said
sorry

Itell ya whos next. The Iceman is gonna get knocked the fu** out by Rampage!
One Word! WOW. Im surprised CroCop still has his head attached.
That was completely insane! Who wouldve thought that Mirko would get beat at his own game? What is this, the year of the upsets? I bet anybody that Rampage will knockout Iceman next month? Anybody want a piece of that?
Wow! What a kick! I could definitely see the next upset being Rampage over Liddell.
I think I can fly. Nothing makes sense.
so much for the pride hws coming in and plowing thru the ufc hws. yes arlovski fought not to lose but even more so werdum fought not to get knocked out! unlike his buddy cc who got ktfo! i cant believe some are saying gonzaga got lucky he planned that kick. this fight was nothing like serra gsp where gsp was dominating until getting caught. gonzaga was dominating on the ground and was landing some seriuos elbows and even cut cc i was actully suprised that the ref stood it up when he did. it looked like he herb dean was trying to protect cc. i found it interesting that cc never trained in the cage. what a dumb mistake. why did he come to the ufc if he didnt think it was important. i dont think he was ready for those elbows he didnt look llike he trained for that either. i think his career is over to. not just from the injuries but psychologicly i dont think he will be able to come back. this fight will always stick with him. bring on fedor!

I dont blame ya brother. I probably would have bet my house on gsp and crocop. Good thing i didnt. Go rampage! JK! Istill hope chuck but i am scared to death.
i doubted randy (against big poopie so embarrased to say that) too as much as i hate to it
[quote comment=”39248″]GONZAGA has been clearly underated for a long time! He possesses a combination of Ground Skills and KO Punch like none else in the game. Next UFC HW Champion for sure.[/quote]
i totally see Gonzaga keep that belt for a long time
Chuck will win
Wow….I’ll tell you one thing that concerns me. I have a bad feeling that was the last time we will see Crocop fight. I know his ankle looked bad, but regardless Mirko almost retired after the open weight pride contest. He said then if he didn’t win it would be his last fight. Now that he lost and is now out of title contention, in my opinion he will have a press conference to announce his retirement soon. What a sad day for MMA. on a lighter note go Randy! I hope you beat Gonzaga! Whats everyone elses opinion?
I hope randy wins too, but he surely has his work cut out for him. I might put some money on gonzaga and win by grounding and npounding randy! Sh** happens in mma and i would not be surprised to see gabe beat randy and rampage beat chuck.
dudes the UFC really needs to implement the yellow card rule AA and werdum really needed that rule
I think the Cro Cop-Gonzaga fight (insert Silvia-Couture, Serra-GSP, Franklin-Silva, etc.) is EXACTLY what makes MMA the most exciting sport. Gonzaga clearly had a perfect game plan and executed (almost literally). He did his homework. However, I too am scared to watch the Chuck-Rampage fight. I love this shit.
BTW, I totally disagree with many others in that I can’t wait to see Couture fight Gonzaga. I expect that will be a very good fight.
what the fuck,the underdog winning seems to be the theme of ufc nowadays!!ufc is now being taking over by the bookies and fighters are throwing fights i hate ufc now but i guess some rich and powerfull people are getting even more rich betting on the underdog.what better way for dana white to shake up his heavyweight division than to take the belt off sylvia with unlikely opponent couture and get a marketable champion out of it and then stick it to the fans for saying pride had a better hw division by bringing in prides #2 fighter and having a UFC grown fighter beat him with his own move,gonzaga shouldnt have beaten CRO COP,UFC is fake and run by gangsters who make major money on betting odds like these,it happens in every sport and athletes get bought everyday,if you dont throw fights,people get hurt or go missing,look what happened to vitor!! BOTTOM LINE is that if your not in tight with dana,you will lose.DANA has always said ufc would kick prides ass and hes seems hell bent on doing that,remember what happened when wwe bought wcw how vince mcmahon had his wrestlers continually pummel wcw wrestlers same thing here,EVERYONE LOVES MIRKO CRO COP JUST LIKE EVERYONE USED TO LOVE GOLDBERG before he was booked into oblivion
[quote comment=”39573″]dudes the UFC really needs to implement the yellow card rule AA and werdum really needed that rule[/quote]
Dude, you got that right. AA had too many opps to hit him- HARD- and he didn’t take them.
Do you now where I can download the Fight.
I want to see please.
i also cant wait to see couture vs gonzaga. i dont believe randy was lying or playing head games when he said that he would prefer fighting cc over gonzaga he meant it. i still think randy will prevail. also if yellow cards were allowed werdum would owe money after that fight.
[quote comment=”39590″]Do you now where I can download the Fight.

I mean CRO COP vs Gonzaga.
i also think werdum should have to fight tim “the retardiac” silvia next.
I think Cro Cop is done. He was going to retire if he lost the Grand Prix. His wife really didn’t want him to fight anymore that is a fact. Face it is has great kicks and is a great stand up fighter. Gonzaga just displayed exactly how to beat him. Once he is one the ground he is helpless.
Rogan is correct Cro Cop doesn’t have a strong chin. But on one would have got pat that kick.
I suspect he suffered a both need and ankle damage that will keep him out. If he comes back I suspect he’ll want to fight in PRIDE.
CRO COP will be back and rematch will be CRO COP VS Gonzaga 2
But can you tell me guys where I can see all fight CRO COP vs Gonzaga
[quote comment=”39179″]I told you I was gonna knock his ASS OUT![/quote]
why do people come on to sites pretending to be someone they are obviously not…Gonzaga barely speaks any english, let along writes any…
And as for upsets.. If I have learned anything about the UFC or any MMA fighting system.. There is no underdog.. anyone can win and at anytime
I will never be surprised again.

This is the most rediculous thing I have ever heard. Just cuz Pride’s poster boy didnt walk through all UFC competition and get the belt? Then would UFC be good? Why wont you Pride fans ever recongize the legitamicy of the level of competition in UFC. If they CAN’T handle the elbows maybe they should stay in pride. The cage? The rules? Ok maybe instead of the Elbows they should have allowed Gonzaga to soccer kick his ass, that would have been way better for crocop right? Whatever dude, I aint gonna argue about this anymore, Pride guys win, UFC sucks, Pride guys Loses, UFC sucks, whatever pride fans, get over it.
Having said that, I concied on a good day, Crocop would probably KO Ganzaga, but today, Gonzaga didnt get a ‘lucky shot’, he dominated that whole fight. Crocop never landed a thing, besides the body shot that got him taken down.
wat the fuck is elvis sinosic doing in an octagon, no really wat?
And the AA fight, oh man, AA fighting not to lose? Are you kidding me, he just chased Werdum around the whole time. It’s hard to fight someone when there skipping around the cage the whole time. AA fougt just fine, all this AA lost it stuff is crap. I am not degrating Werdum, he did the best he could have done, he is the inferior striker engaging quickly and getting out of range. Meanwhile looking for the takedown, but he did a good job of not getting knocked out.
Not all fights can be the best exciting things in your lives, the real fans watch it and love it for the appreciation of the variation of strategy, technique, strength and speed.
Thats just how some match ups end up. Dosnt mean they were a bad match up, they match hopefully the closest in skill level to decifer the best.
And one more thing, I am not an anti pride guy at all, I watch both all the time, its just rediculous all this shit talking on UFC.
@The Anomaly: dude, shut up! I can’t believe the crap you wrote about AA being the aggressive one. My ass!
Herb Dean standing Cro Cop up 30 seconds till the end of the fight from a save position with action still going on after he recieved various cuts due to (in the UFC allowed) elbows was the thing that ended the fight im my opinion. CC’s reflexes are usually alot faster, but when he defended for a midsection kick he failed to adjust his defense. I doubt I ever saw such a slow CC and can only blame it on the injuries and damage the GnP game of Gonzaga dealt.
Then again I think something was wrong with CC. Not physically, but mentally. He just didn’t seemed focused and he was zero aggressive. Maybe personal problems, maybe he was too confident, I don’t know, but we didn’t saw the CC we saw in his last dozen fights.
As for those who are concerned about CC’s health, here is an update DIRECTLY from his team: “Mirko’s right ankle is swollen and it hurts, but only after Tuesday’s exams the diagnosis will be more precise.”
YOu tapped.
Did you not see that fight. Did he not chase Werdum around? Who followed who around the cage tell me that. Who was steppin forward, and who was going back and forth and sideways and what not.
And im not sure the point your trying to make about the elbows, are you agianst them? Are we bending the rules around crocops game? Look, that’s part of MMA man, the whole point of MMA is to mimick at best, and simulate, a real fight scenario, what works and dosnt work, you know, to an extent. elbows are part of the game man, I don’t know how anbody can be against that. If CC couldnt handle it, good job Gonzaga for landin the elbows.
I get it, you all are pissed CroCop lost, don’t start blamein it on rules. He had an off day man like you said.
After watching CroCop get ktfo’ed, I’d just wanted to cry!!
It was truly the year of the upsets.
Still GSP and CroCop are my champs.
Kinda gets annoying since everyone will jump on the Gonzaga bandwagon and get to read some posts (like above) “Crocop is done”.
God I hope this is not the end of his MMA carreer though as some are suggesting.

P.S., if your suggesting in anyway that STANDING UP the fight HURT CROCOPS CHANCES, I dont even know what to say to you.
Ah whatever. I am done with this site. Its the same silly thing every time again. You bring arguments, facts, statistics and try to reason and explain your point and some guy turns up with the generic “Told ya so”, “I have it in my gut” and “You all suck because you like UFC/Pride” statements. It’s like argueing with a 10 y/o.
Shout outs to MTUFC, Jason Bang, tha spida, UFCmania, UFCmaniac, MMA Dude and Jesse. I enjoyed debating MMA with you guys and really appreciated your insights and perspectives, even thou we may not always agreed. It’s just a sport and since I only participate in it as a fan I expect it to be exciting and fun. But with so many haters on this forum, the politics in UFC and the biased ranking within the UFC for title contenders it has become less and less fun for me over the course of the last 6 months.
See ya later if things ever change. Meanwhile I am back to my martial art roots in kickboxing and muay thai - maybe we see each other on the KB/MT websites. Cheerios

Your an idiot. Why in the world would someone whose had as much success as Mirko Cro Cop willingly take on of the most devestating head kicks that MMA has ever seen. How could that possibly have been fixed. Mirko obviously doesn’t need the money and I you’d have to need it pretty bad to want to take a dive like that. If someone is taking a dive it would have been a slow fight with no one getting knocked out. You seriously must have been dropped on your head when you were a kid.
in this game, when fighters have alot of footage on them it works against them, Anderson Sliva used it to smoke the Ace, Serra used it on GSP, GSP used it to beat Matt Hughes, couture used it to beat tim, lydell back in the day used it to beat ortiz and if you look at MMA that is the way it goes. Work every thing, get good cardio, and do you HOME WORK!!!!! = GREAT FREEKIN FIGHT…..
ps. I still think gsp was hit behind the head (trice) 1st, 2nd and 6th

Your the idiot! Do you not now anything about politics. I know Crop Cop does , and if Dana White wants it fixed then it will be fixed. The Cro Cop fight was definitly fixed! I have never seen a Cro Cop kick caught! The UFC SUCKS it is fixed period! Look at Chuck Liddel’s last six fighters he has fought: Couture 3 times, Ortiz twice, and Vernon , who is that White. Dana Likes to prop people up and keep them there. By the way that Gonzaga kick was really lame looking- and if you watch the tape you can see Cro Cop put his hands down when the kick comes in- clearly he is about to retire and took a kick for a cool 1-2 million gauranteed. The Bottom line the UFC sucks and is clearly fixed.
Matt, you incredible ignoramus. You’ve set the bar for stupidity at an all time low if you think that Cro Cop threw that fight. May the fleas of a thousand camels invade your groin region.
Matt…..You need to have a serious word with yourself.
An old guy tried telling me that UFC was fixed just like “The wrestling”….yeah right
Do you really think Cro Cop would take a shot like that that could have killed him for a few quid???? Dude you are crazy
It’s funny how everyone is saying AA will lose, Werdum did’nt even have a chance, if he opened up, he would have gotten knocked out.
I dont see why Dana White would fix the fight. Cro Cop winning could lead to a cro-cop vs.coteur fight and a possible Liddel vs Cro-Cop fight, both fights would generate more money than any fight with gabriel gonzaga in them. I for one am glad cro-cop got knocked the fuck out. He was going around acting way to cocky. When you sign a contract to fight for the ufc, you dont bitch all day about doing interviews, and press conferences. He was being more of a bitch than tito ortiz, and dana white wasnt treating him any different because he paid so much money to get cro-cop into the ufc. Seriously who really is going to give a fuck now, when cro-cop comes out to the pride theme song? He got worked by one of the UFC’s best. It means nothing now. He is going to have to work his way to the top.
CroCop landed this morning to Zagreb, Croatia, and beside limping (swallen ankle), he did not look like unconcious guy from list night.
He said that he will finish his contract(that means 2 more fights; not retiring yet). He reflected that he got what he desrved with the way he fought last night. Also, added that obviously he still didn;t overcome losses to Randelman and Fedor.
WOW, FOR MONTHS I HAD TO ENDURE BULL SHIT AND NAME CALLING, AND I WAS RIGHT ALL ALONG!!!!!!!!!!!!

I WAS THE ONLY BLOGGER WHO STOOD LOYAL TO RANDY THROUGH ALL THESE MONTHS, WHILE YOU GUYS ALL SAID OGRE BOY WOULD BEAT HIM.
I JUST GOT THE LAST BIG FUCKEN LAUGH
SINCERELY,
SUNNY, SOMEONE WHO KNOWS THERE SHIT
that fat bastard doesent deserve to take.. the most devestating head kick ever. fuck that! i hate it! mirko will get his revenge. hes going to come back like he did for silva.
I sure as hell don’t think it was a lucky kick, cro cop got owned the whole fight, sad to say it was pretty obvious. I still think serra got in a lucky punch with gsp though, just my opinion and thought he was winning until he got caught. I really don’t know how anyone could say it was a lucky kick, I have a hard time believing what I saw. Who could have predicted the last three main events in the ufc?
[quote comment=”39312″][quote comment=”39307″]BAD NEWS!!!

Yeah why would it take two years??? I want to KO him again.[/quote]
Hey, hope he gets better and has no residual damage. Your technique was flawless and the way you turned and the replay speed was so awesome. Next time you fight him, please just knock him out “a little”. I was impressed that you kept him defensive, the kick though was too well done to be lucky, especially with CC’s striking power and speed in the way. You rate PPV class booking. Awesome……

Shocked by the Gonzaga KO. This will forever be on the highlight reel. Elvis geeting his ass kicked and almost pulling off the upset with that knee. I’m still glad Bisping won. He will be a force to be reakoned with. He came out really hyped and ready to go. AA as I said before would pull this one off. I’m happy to see AA in the mix again.
I’m so glad I waited rather than checking it on here. The Gonzaga/CC fight was so worth the wait
YouTapped, I hope you see this. I know how you feel, bro. Some serious dumbasses here lately who know literally nothing of what they discuss.

It´s time to Lyoto to have a nickname. My suggestion: “Smooth Operator”
i learned a lot of shit about the new fighters in the ufc from guys like youtapped and mtufc, thats why we all come on here right? to learn about this shit and become smarter and better fans? those guys know their shit and provide all kinds of interesting links and shit, i’d hate to see either one go, i enjoy their posts, especially when its about something i don’t know much about, this cro cop loss has everyone feeling emotional, the guy is like a hero to some people and it is devastating to them, i hope he comes back and gets another shot at gonzaga, i know he’s better than what he showed last night, i think the dude who said the fight is fixed is out of his mind, nobody takes a shot like that for no amount of dough, there’s been a lot of upsets lately and a lot of boring fights because dudes don’t want to get upset, i’m not saying cro cop was fighting not to get upset but he wasn’t himself and this loss will allow him to let it all hang out next time, and who knows what might have happened if the fight wasn’t stood up, it would have gone to round two for sure and he would have known he had to win the next two rounds and he would have been more offensive and who knows, bottom line is that the dude got caught and that shit happens, but there is no reason to talk negatively about the guy, if you picked gonzaga and you were sure he was gonna win then props to you, and give props to gonzaga, but don’t say shit like you knew it was gonna happen cause cro cop is overrated and shit cause thats not the case, the dudes track record is proven, he just got caught…
i was sitting almost front row and the smack of the head is still ringing in my ears.
Ryoto Machida is a great fighter he knock out rich fracklin and he beat bj penn but that fight should not have happen he was way bigger than penn but i beleive he can compete with chuck and would be a good fight but ending in a knockout with him being the lozer
1. Randy couture 43 and coming out of retirement stuns sylvia in round 1 with his first punch then proceeds to dominate him on his feet and on the ground for the entire 5 rounds.
2. Gsp gets tko’ed by serra is the first round.
3. Cro cop gets ko’ed by gonzaga with a leg kick in the first round.
Man these ufc fights are starting to feel like there from the twilight zone, if anyone pre ufc 68 would have seen whats above they would have laughed, an thought I was insane. God what’s next? I almost don’t want to know.
Bisping is the man!!!!
Wow, if you knew anything about fighters they are not scared to get knocked out for money. Gonzaga over powered Cro Cop? …Bob Sapp could not even overpower Cro Cop. Trust me the UFC is fixed, it is homebased out of Vegas… need I say more. Look at the Herring fight he was a good fighter and came over from Pride and lost to a no name. Dana White’s plan was to buy out Pride and humiliate its fighters. Whats next Rampage getting knocked out by Joe Rogan. Or Nogera getting submitted by Luke Cummo. No the UFC is not all about money the Dana White and Tito Ortiz boxing match was not a publicity stunt. Here is my prediction for UFC 71: WHO CARES!!! But I bet somebody is going to make alot of money after learning about some insider information.
This just in Jason Von Flue defeats Fedor Emelianenko in a first round knockout by flying back kick to the ankle. Randy Couture called it, and Joe Rogan always said Jason Von Flue was no joke.
I am such a Joe Rogan fan he was so good on Talk Radio, Fear Factor, and who better to be a critic for MMA. The UFC is not Hollywood at all and that is why I like it. I am really looking foward to UFC 75 where Chuck Norris comes out of retirment to take back whats rightfully his…..THE HEAVYWEIGHT BELT

I always knew Jason von flue could take Fedor out. the deadly and feared spinning back kick to the ankle, gets em every time. Fedor is also vurnerable to tickling and indian burns.
But seriously, anyone that thinks the UFC would through This CroCop fight is a retard because they just lost millions.
Did anyone see the Sakara Fight?
CRO COP will be back to kick his ass in CRO COP VS Gonzaga2
arlovski is my only fear in heavywieghts. the typical heavywieghts are fat useless slobs that most middlewieghts could mow down. im a lw, but i was thinking about hw for a long time. and i mapped out that aa is the only real threat besides randy. to sum him up, athletic, fast, agile, explosive, skilled. overall dangerous, i think he could beat randy because hes just so quick couture couldnt breath before a new fist came screaming down the pipe. and if a takedown did occur, he has sambo to cover so you still cant count him out.

SUNNY, THE ONLY BLOGGER ON THIS SITE WHO NEVER DOUBTED RANDY COUTURE OR TALKED SHIT ABOUT HIM LIKE YOU DID.
CroCrap - lol - that is funny shit.
I personally like him, but that is funny.
I never have nor ever will doubt Couture - he is the Man. End of story
Whoa whoa SUNNY. I believe your not the ONLY one who didnt doubt Couture. I can’t believe though that anybody can.
43!! The man. CC record shows though, he is good,one of the best, getting dominated by Gonzaga would def not happen again with a 100% crocrop. Crocop and Couture would have been awosme to see, although so is any fight with Couture in it. Couture will take this next fight, unless something crazy happens or he gasses. I also couldnt see how people were even thinking about counting out AA against Werdum, madness. This is MMA though, lets not pretend we know all the outcomes of the matches.
And I totally agree about that Youtapped guy. I guess im kinda responsible for that one. We were having a friendly debate when that guy came at me with, “Whatever 10 year old, im leaving forever” yeah, IM the ten year old? Sure.
This MATT fool is out of his mind!! Rigged fights? Are you kidding me? SPIDA put it right, this guy is clueless.
CC over powered BOB Sapp? Hell no he didnt. He out techniqued him, is faster and is more skilled. By no means was Crocop stronger, BOB sapp was pushin him around, not that he was winning by any means, but just talkin shear force?
Rigged fights. Don’t come here and degrade this awsome sport with that.
Oh yah…THE ANOMALY.. you got freaked on by Youtapped because you AA was the agressor…
HERE’S A REALITY CHECK Youtapped.. are 300 million people wrong, because we all saw that AA dominated and chased your chicken shit Werdum around the octagon like inmate chasing new meat in the system!!!
GOOD RIDENCE!!! HOPEFULLY Mtufc and Tommy will follow suit..
or do I need to give you all credits to Scorsese’s films
LOL LOL LOL

Gonna start turning comments off.
For the 10,000th time, please try and talk MMA and not resort to juvenile personal attacks. It’s getting real old, real fasy.
I have a suggestion:
Sunny: If Tommy posts, pretend you don’t see it.
Sunny and MTU: If Tommy posts, pretend you don’t see it.
Crazy concept, I know.
But a lot of these conversations “devolve” and go the “Sherdog” route because people just don’t know when to stop.
Be part of the solution, not the problem.
It’s like the pot calling the kettle black.
I appreciate everyone’s participation on this site. Especially when people share links and start smart discussions.
But if someone says something stupid, don’t take the bait. I don’t know what else to say. Be the bigger man … or woman.
Not everyone is as smart as you think you are — whoever you are.
This isn’t exclusive to just this group — goes for everyone.
It ruins the experience for everyone involved.
Please don’t misinterpret this post as an attack; call it some advice to make this site and community the best it can be.
I’m out of cliches.
Well said, you are absolutely right.
BTW: Where is Jesse Holland? We are missing your blogs.
Sincerely,
SunnY
