Cro Cop's TROJAN HORSE

Cro Cop's camp have released infomation that he is training with Remy Bonjasky and Gilbert Yvel. I believe that Cro Cop is definitely a better striker than Congo and would probably KO him in the first round. Also I believe that mirko himself stated that his training for this fight is 80% stand up and only 20% ground game.

Cro Cop is obviously taking this fight seriously as he is also training with great ground fighters such as, Ricco Rodriguez, Sergei Kharitonov and now BJJ magician Dean Lister.

My question is that could Cro Cop's camp have leaked this information to the MMA community so that they could try and fool Congo.


Could Cro Cop actually submit Congo?

Then again, realistically, if I was a betting man, I would put my money on Cro Cop 1stround KO

RIP Congo

I do think CC is going to take Kongo down and drop some elbows/ground and pound.

Kongo looked HORRIBLE on the ground in his first UFC fight. Like, GOD AWFULLY TERRIBLE.

I think CroCop will exploit that weakness.

Cro Cop will not submit Kongo.

This is going to be a stand up war with Mirko ending this fight in devastating fashion.

Mirko via brutal LHK KO in round 1.

Mirko isn't taking this fight down. Even if he wanted to, Kongo's Greco is too much for Mirko, who had trouble in the clinch with Mark Hunt.

This fight isn't going to the ground until someone gets dropped, and judging how serious Mirko is about this fight, I'm betting on Kongo going down first.

Cro Cop finished Sanchez from the mount so I would not be shocked if this one went to the ground but I doubt it will.
