The idea of him being on that reality show sends shivers up my spine. yuck.

hopefully he’ll regroup and be a force at LHW again. I’d like to see him get his act together in the UFC.

It was a joke.

Lose to real competition, time to go back to Japan and beat up on some undersized guys (again)!

It’s World Victory Road or Yarennoka/K-1.

I get that. I’m just saying it’s a gross thought.

[quote comment=”308287″]Lose to real competition, time to go back to Japan and beat up on some undersized guys (again)![/quote]
that was an intelligent comment

it wouldn’t be this big of a deal if he were to sign with k-1 or world victory road, at least he is not retiring i think he is going to fight in england or something in june as co main event, i hope he is not leaving the ufc yet

It’s to bad he had to go out like that.I would have at least liked to see him rematch Gonzaga.yeah the guys from Japan suck they don’t even hold all of the UFC’S belts just 3 of them pfft losers.

He needs to redeem @ UFC.

The best are in the west, this goes to prove. Maybe now he can juice up to his hearts content without looking over his shoulder.

Fighting is in his blood if it’s only against weaker competition. If he leaves the UFC, I will have lost all respect for him as a fighter.

This is really weird.

Why is he making his announcement in Japan?

I guess CroCop going after the UFC Belt is just a pipe dream.

Someone get on the hotline to Dana and get a quote. Dana would have had to let him go for Mirko to fight in another organization.

I’am so dissapointed in Crocop for leaving to fight in Japan. I wont even wear his Tshirt anymore because everyone will say that he sucks and cant cut it with the best in the world and guess what its the truth. What a joke he has become for running away like that. Coutoure lost twice in a row and came back, Liddel lost twice in a row and came back, Crocop losses twice in a row and runs away.

Now actually i really don’t care what he does or where he goes, so Crocop goodnight and goodluck and go to hell.

P.S. one really pissed of fan.

name is “Dreams” ,(organization is new pride, same rules..)

None of what you said has been revealed or confirmed.

I don’t get it. I am alittle confused by all this. I find it surprizing that the UFC would let him go like that. As they sure could still make money from him. I also find it hard that Crocop would leave the UFC with unfinished business.
Very Strange!! I guess we will find out everything in the next couple of days. I can’t stand the wait.Alittle Disappointing to see him leave, If indeed he is pulling out of the UFC. I hope not!

If he leaves the UFC to fight back in Japan I will lose quite a bit of respect for the guy, and I’m a huge fan. I just want him to prove himself in the UFC so bad still, and him walking out like that would just suck…and making an announcement in Japan is not looking good..

Who said he’s leaving? I understand this is a thread that brings up millions of speculations but damn! Let’s see what’s going on first before you start downing the guy. There’s a reason why you were all excited about him coming to the UFC. All of a sudden he sucks, he’s weak, blah blah blah. Just like all those people booing in vegas when really good BJJ is being displayed. No appreciation what so ever.

The fact that he is making his announcement in Japan telegraphs the likelihood that he is joining another organization (probably WVR). He wouldn’t travel to Japan to announce anything regarding the UFC - it doesn’t make any sense.

I;am not saying that he is a bad fighter but this move to go to Japan is actually i think a big step backwards for him and his career. Even if he does great in Japan and becomes a champion it really won’t matter to many MMA fans because all of that will be tainted by leaving UFC in such a short time.

Jesus, he’s obviously leaving. Read between the fuckin lines people:

Crocop - “WHEN THE OFFICIAL PART IS DONE, I’ll be able to provide more information about everything”

Translation - “I’ve signed with another organization and will be able to tell you all about it tomorrow once I finish the necessary paperwork.”

He’s a quitter and a loser.

I suspect that Cro Cop and the UFC came to an agreement and they let him go. He was just too expensive I have to agree it will be one of the three M-1, K-1 or World Victory Road. I have a hunch it is World Victory Road.

You guys that will lose respect for whatever cro cop does(and it hasnt even been announced btw) werent fans to begin with so quit trying to pretend you were at one point. You probably never followed him outside of the UFC. Its so typical of some of you to hate something yu dont know about like PRIDE and its fighters. He happened to run into a little bad luck in the UFC but doesnt take away that he beat the crap out of alot of good fighters like wanderlei so show some respect!

i’d have to agree that’s he’s heading back to japan.
why would he announce a UFC fight in Japan??!?!?

i agree with mr.jitters
some sort of agreement was reached where ufc paid him out
under the condition he doesn’t fight for an american based promotion i.e. elite xc, strikeforce, m-1global, hdnet etc.

Nobody cry for this guy that he is leaving. I’am sure that he really doesn’t care what we think about all of this anyways.

I agree 100%. He may be leaving. But he’s not gone yet. If he does leave then you know he’ll pass it off by saying “they didn’t want to honor the contract and that’s why I’m leaving” and while this may be true he should have worked something out saying “give me a one fight deal to show you and we will go from there.” BUT!!! He hasn’t left yet and hopefully he doesn’t. He’s still top 10 on any list of guys you don’t want to face. For someone to pass him off as a nobody then they must be showing up to the party late. (Xero, Big_Watcher)

I just wonder how much of this has to do with Dana White and trying to get rid of Crocop.

Wow man does the HW division look weak at the moment.

I love how pride lovers claim Silva and rampage. Neither one of them came right from pride. Yeah they at one time did fight for pride but both were signed from diff orgs. Stop with this whole pride was better than the UFC crap. They are UFC fighters now and Pride will never be back. Sorry

[quote comment=”308352″]name is “Dreams” ,(organization is new pride, same rules..)[/quote]

Same roids and freak show fights cant wait to not watch that.

Look at the way fighters in pride showed respect towards opponents, unlike UFC. In america its a bunch of booing with fans that dont know much about the SPORT. They treat it like a WWF match, and they dont show the appreciation like japanese fans are used to doing. Also, owners like dana running their mouths like a bunch of morons is getting so soap opera like…

I mean DANA talks alot of shit like he has been doing with FEDOR but i think he secretly wishes he can be a fighter like them! its like the jealous kid talking smack on the talented kid because he secretly wishes he was him…someone needs to throw dana in the ring so he can learn to appreciate his fighters a little more so having him get a beatdown from any of them would really shut him up.

Oh man that sucks i was looking forward to Crocop vs Sanchez 2

He needs to fight in the UFC again and kick heads. In his eyes though he may feel the ring is the only place for him. It is a completely different style of fighting.

i am sure if he is leaving it was dana that let him go, i have been saying this for awhile dana will say he is overrated or washed up and thats why he cut him.he is a great fighter everybody loses i hope its not the case i would like to see him redeem himself to the ufc fans that talk some much trash here.and i will say it again the best h.w.’s are not in the ufc anyway.

I followed Cro Cop in K1 so you are wrong. He put forth little effort in his UFC fights. He didn’t train hard, and he didn’t fulfill his obligations to the fans in doing PR wirk. Dana’s big complaint was that he wouldn’t give anything back to the fans. Cro Cop made his name beating up Japanese pro rasslers in Pride, and yes I followed his entire career in Pride. He had a horrible run in the UFC and a disgraceful end. All his own fault.

Tomorrow Yarrenoka is supose to make a huge anouncement. They are suposedly going to anounce fighters for an upcoming event and a schedule for the year. I bet it has something to do with that.

think maybe the UFC is having an event in japan and cro cop will be on the card??

THE UFC IS MUCH MORE THAN A LEFT KICK AND BAD HAIRCUT. CRO COP REALIZED THAT THERE WAS WAY TOO MUCH HEAT IN THIS KITCHEN.

If he is indeed leaving America and the UFC to fight smaller opponents in Japan they should make him fight Hong Man Choi as punishment for failing in the UFC. For those of you unfirmilliar with Choi he is the 7 foot 5ish (I’m guessing) Korean giant Fedor submitted.

Its to early to get on the Hate CroCop for “running away” bandwagon since we do not know why he is leaving. Maybe we should be on the hate Dana White bandwagon for not paying fighters enough to keep them fighting in the UFC.

[quote post=”4912″]think maybe the UFC is having an event in japan and cro cop will be on the card?? [/quote]

I was thinking that myself. Maybe all this waiting Dana was talking about is a fight contract offered for an event to take place in Japan, and Dana was waiting for everything to be set up before he could announce it.

Everyone expects the worst, which would be for him to walk out of UFC and go fight in a shitty organization. IE, Fedoritis.

Can’t wait. I hope it’s good news.

he’ll join pro wrestling or something silly

he’s going to japan where the competition is easier!!! lol

looks like he’s leaving ufc

agree fully to all of the above. i gotta say though that i find it very narrow-minded of a lot of people on here that seem to think that the UFC is only place to fight. It may be the biggest, yes, but there are a lot of good fighters out there in other divisions. Dana doesn’t seem to be very pleasant to work for either. No one knows what has been going on behind closed doors in regards to Cro Cop and the UFC. Maybe they have tried to lowball him which wouldn’t seem too out of the ordinary for Dana to do.

And judging by all the bandwagon jumpers on this site it has become resoundingly clear that you are neither fans nor are you knowledgeable about MMA in general.

i agree in the past cro cop has beat some tough opponents. the big word here being PAST. i’m calling it like i see it and that is that cro cop has looked like a piece of garbage recently, and if he does(not saying he is)leave the ufc then it is kinda like running away with your tail between your legs. he came to the ufc, looked oversized and to be honest outclassed.

so for all you cro cop lovers out there, stop living in the past.

Yeah most likely he will fight in Japan if he didn’t whats the point of going that far for the announcment. As a fan i’am sad if Crocop will leave UFC and i can also understand the frustration on many of CC’s fans. Just go and read what people are saying on Nokaut.com

It would suck if Cro Cop left.

A lot of people are saying “he is running away” What about the UFC HONORING the CONTRACT THAT CRO COP SIGNED to??????

Everyone was quick to say Randy signed a contract so he needs to fulfil it

It is known that the UFC wanted to RENEGOTIATE Cro Cop’s contract and PAY HIM MUCH LESS THAN WHAT WAS AGREED TO AND SIGNED FOR?????? Dont get it, Randy cant do it, but the UFC can kick people out if they dont take huge pay cuts, even thought they under contract for a certain amount.

I wouldnt blame Cro Cop at all, if he leaves because the UFC was going to “sit him” until his contract ended if he DID NOT TAKE A HUGE PAY CUT

he is going back to japan with anderson silva where the competition is a little easier

Dave@wrestlingobserver.com

Reports from Japan, as well as a web site post by Mirko Cro Cop both state Cro Cop will be in Japan tomorrow for a press conference put on by Fighting Entertainment Group (K-1), which will announce the debut of a new MMA promotion to take the place of its Hero’s division.

Cro Cop was the most popular foreign MMA fighter in Japan when he signed a six-fight deal at the end of 2006 with UFC. After going 1-2 in UFC, it was known UFC was considering cutting him from the deal due to the high cost of his contract.

His heading to the opening of the new group would make it likely that is how things turned out but we haven’t had that confirmed from the UFC side.

i wonder what hes going to do
and why make the announcement over there?

Cro Cop and the UFC are coming to Japan!!!

I never respected Cro cop and if he leaves the UFC confirms what I always said. Cro cop is NOT an MMA fighter. He did well in K1 and kicked some more heads in pride.

His Jiu jitsu = SUCKS
Wrestling = SUCKS
Stan up = Good

The evolution of MMA and coming into the octagon shows who’s who.

where are these “reports” coming from, are they reliable?

i really hope the ufc honors cro cop’s contract…the giants are still paying barry zito the most lucrative deal for a pitcher in history even tho he sucked last year….they have to honor it…and i think crocop has a lot left in the tank and i think he can still right the ship and prove himself in the ufc, just hope he sticks with it….

What is this about the UFC not honoring a contract? Usually the promoter can terminate the contract. That isn’t unusual and is often best for both parties. If the UFC wanted to shaft Mirko they would have refused to let him out of the contract.

I guess he figured out he couldnt hang with the big boys in the ufc show he will go fedor on us and fight where nobody will watch against cans so he can pad his record.

hey guys who really cares if he leaves the ufc what has he done here except got ktfo…if he leaves good bye hes a joke in the ufc

Did anyone say any of this when Liddell lost 2 in a row? Nope. Did Dana try to restructure Chucks contract and make him take a pay cut? nope. Cro Cop has beat a lot of great fighters and took Fedor the distance in a classic match. Other than Couture and Silva who has chuck beaten? Babalu. big deal. Randleman? big deal. Tito? Cro Cop has beaten Coleman, Randleman, Aleksander Emelianenko, Josh Barnett. Christ he broke Sakarabu and Bob Sapp’s orbital bones.

Why would they refuse to let him out of his contract? they are currently playing him $250,000 (Brock Lesner Money) to get KTFO. Also Cro Cop hasnt done any promotoinal stuff for the UFC, he doesnt give interviews…I think Dana is fed up.

However, I wouldnt mind seeing Mirko Kick Dana’s head off as a going away present to the Fans.

It’s confirmed, Mirko’s off to ne promotion ‘Dream’ now. http://www.nokaut.com/?id=12&solo_news=1357&.

And snip from his blog-
FED / DSE press conference in Tokyo introduced a new MMA promotion - DREAM. Mirko was a special guest at the press conference where it was announced that Mirko will continue his career under the roof of a new promotion.
The first even is going to be held in Saitama on March 15 and Mirko will appear on this card, while his opponent is yet to be announced.
More information will follow upon Mirko’s arrival to Zagreb tomorrow, so stay tuned on MMA-ID!

He is signing for M-1 to fight against Fedor. Was a great fight back in 2005, but now its a bit outdated, especially as he is on a losing streak and was never number 1 contender for his title in Pride and is especially not deserving of a shot at fedor until he defeats some real opponents. Having said that, Fedor himself hasnt really fought any big names so this could be a way of silencing his critics, although again Crocop hasnt performed well recently.
