What I’ve learned from my friendship with Mirko Cro Cop is that you can never be sure what he is up to. He prefers to keep his thoughts for himself; he’s always been a man of a few words. His absence in the media often results in completely misleading stories, coming from people who are giving their best shot in evaluating Mirko’s position and the nature of his future plans....

I know Fortunal personnally. He is a good friend of Cro Cop so I trust his opinions on him, he didn't say much after the GG fight.

Good news. Cro Cop is gonna unleash on his next opponent. I wouldn't want to be the guy who has to fight him next.

Cro Cop needs to really round off his grappling/wrestling skills. In a Ring with Pride rules he was a monster, but UFC is grappler's country. If Cro Cop does not present a threat on the ground, he will always be a generation behind today's MMA champs.

IDK about CC anymore....how can his ground fighting be that LAME....I mean for real he coldn't get Kongo off of him!!! Terrible! IF he can at least learn to sprawl and excape real well, then I would have faith in him....oh but he would still KO Big Tim!!!!!

I think his problem is partially due to him being undersized for HW. Wandy weighed more then him last time they fought. He told Dana he can't make 205, but I think if he learned how to cut, he could

Not a joke at all....CC's ground game is probably worse that any other HW in the UFC.

You clearly have not watched him against Fedor, Coleman, Waterman, ect. He kept fedor from doing a ton of damage and kept him in guard(ask Nog how hard that is), Coleman coulden't take him down at all, and neither could waterman. Cro Cop's sprawl is amazing, his ground game is typically a stall and not let the other guy inflict damage, no he's not a grappler, he'll never be a grappler, just like Randy will never have the stand up that he has, thats why they call it MMA though.

Yeah, but it's not like they stood him up quickly against Coleman, or Herring, they never got him down.

Yeah, good point, I have to review a little. I like CC a lot really, it's just horrible how he failed t get out from under Kongo, and GG was destroying him with those elbows.
