CroCop back to trainings after a nose surgery
After a successfull nose surgery Cro Cop is back on track. Mirko doesn't hide the fact that he's highly motivated for his next bouts.

"Many are saying that I'm done, but I'll prove that they are wrong", says Mirko for Vecernji list (www.vecernji.hr)

What do you think you should change in your trainings?
"I want to gain more weight, from 100 to 105 kgs. In fights gainst Gonzaga and Kongo I realized that I need more power when fighting heavier
opponents- I was spending too much power in clinching and ground game."

Who would you like to fight next?
"I would gladly fight Minotauro. Due to a septum deviation I had problems with my stamina, but now when I don't have such problems anymore I will prepare for my next fights with joy. I'll go to Amsterdam to train with Ivan Hyppolite and to spar with his fighters."

I hope he does return back to his old self.

Im not convinced Mirko, sorry.

Okay. We'll see who they put him against. I like that he outright opted for Nog. Shows some gusto.

Maybe the nose-job will have a placebo effect. It might make crocop think he can really go now, confidence can take you a long way. Good luck to you Mirko.

I am not so keen, It would be good to see him have an easy KO but who knows how many fights he has left in him, i would rather have him take more of a risk against higher level fighters.

If he loses his next fight he is likely done.... 3 loses in a row would be sick.


Unless he gets Patrick Cote immunity and gets to finish out the contract.
