I am a crocop fan and there is nothing physical that he needs to do I think he’s physically one of the top heavyweights but I think his mental game and his big ego was shattered big time after his loss to Gonzaga and now He’s hesitant in the ring and can no longer focus and stay calm. I know about sport psychology, and he has psychologically been effected by his loss to a point that he can’t perform to the best of his ability. Just like the movie Rocky 3 when he loses to Mr.T for the first time-how he lost it mentally. I would say that is exactly what has happend to Crocop. Man I really like him and I think if he flies down to US and train with the UFC guys and get comfortable with new territory then He can realize that he is in fact the best specially if he trains with brazilian guys on juijitsue

[quote comment="175291"]CroCop.. is the biggest disappointment from Pride. And he made more money than Randy.[/quote]
Mirko is no disapointment, any one can have 2 back to back losses look at Chuck, Diego,Gonzaga and too many others to list if anything its how he rebounds on his next fight that matters for all you know he can still make a come back and hold the title you just dont know in MMA, and if hes getting paid alot hes worth it look at his record hes fought the whos who of MMA and defeated alot of bad dudes, so in my opinion hes no disapointment theres alot of other cat you can say are disapointments.

I believe he has a bad septum, where im from ppl say that for exscuses, but comparing how fast and tuff he was in pride, in pride he fights like hes on pcp here he fights like hes stoned off his ass with lazy punches that I coulda seen him do, Fedor on the other hand though he will never dissapoint any1

I think some of you are way too uninformed. CC submitted randleman after a devastating KO at randlemans hands months earlier he has also KO’d Coleman, Ron H2o Waterman, he beat barnett 3 times, A.Emenlianenko, Igor Vovchanchyn, Heath Herring(when he was good), Mark hunt, Bob “the beast” Sapp, Beat the hell out of Wanderlei silva, and oh yea the fight he had with fedor was billed as one of the best fights in mma history. Fedor “mirko was the biggest challenge that ive had yet”. You guys are way to quick to count a fighter out..when your favorite fooball team looses 2 in a row do you count them out as well. This is the fight game anyone can win at anytime, and if you have never fought before you have no reason to critisize. Either stand behind him or get in front of him which is it..bring us glory MIRKO.

Thats a bold statement considering Crocop has wins over Randleman, Coleman, and Josh Barnett.

a lot of people say Cro Cop sucks. But those people are not educated about Cro Cop at all. They should see his fights in Pride FC, and then we’ll see who sucks.

[quote comment="198698"][quote comment="175318"]This sounds pretty similar to what he said after losing to Gonzaga. And all that did was lead to a loss to Kongo.[/quote]

..Except for the fact he had surgery on his deviated septum. This takes out at least half of his stamina. This should be ‘The Real’ Mirko back in action.[/quote]

Let’s also not forget the obvious: the Kongo match should have been a draw. But Mirko is kinda guity of turning into a liddell ‘one trick pony’ blah.

An article in FS magazine last month said that Cro Cops pride record was peppered with lambs lead to the slaughter. I reckon thats a true statement, i mean take a look at some of the cannon fodder he got in pride. Kanehara, Dos Caras, Ron Waterman. but the fact is that he totally annihilated all those bums. When he faced big Nog he gave him a proper ass whooping but got submitted cos he got too cocky. Against Fedor he became the only person to inflict significant damage on the russian cyborg, at the end of that fight Fedors face was a mess.
Cro Cop should concentrate and broadening his arsenal instead of relying on the torpedo kick, His 2nd fight with Silva was a great example of how dominant CC can be with has hands.

I would like to see a rematch with big Nog and hopefully a massive destruction of the catastrophic Tim Sylvia and then in his final fight I would like to see a rematch with Gonzaga instead of a title shot.
