No shit. I will never get the people who claim Kongo was kicking his ass in that fight. At best this fight was a draw, at worst it should be a DQ for Kongo.

Mirko won round 1. Then Kongo proceeded to crush CC's nuts and should have AT LEAST(if not the DQ) had a point taken making it a 9-9 round. Kongo won round 3.

Draw or DQ.

Cro Cop should be learning how to fight from the clinch... Dirty Boxing and takedown defense from the clinch... Step up his game....

Cro-cop definitely has the most delusional fans of any fighter. They gave him a hand picked opponent for his last fight so they knew he would win and boost ratings. If anyone think's he can beat Nog, Lesnar, Mir or Couture they are out of their minds. He won't win the title, and he won't even get close to a shot at fighting for it. Cro-cop knows he's washed up so why dont his fans?

He basicly made Al-Turk look like an amateur, but yeah you are right he will never get the UFC belt.

I agree. I said that earlier in this thread or another CC related thread. He has really good wrestling takedown defense(single/double leg sprawling). But his clinch defense isn't nearly as good yet. And his dirty boxing uppercuts and strikes could be brutal. With his tree trunk legs, he should be able to push people into the cage and just work them.

I'm glad that he's not relying only on kicks anymore. I was always hoping he'd start to let his sick hands go again. He started to on Al-Turk, and would have finished with more strikes if the eye-poke wouldnt have happened.

I'm happy to see what a confident, injury free Mirko will be bringing into his next fight.

I'm not sure that's just it. Sadly, he's been on the stinky side for quite a while now. How about the fight before Al-Turk (who's a meat bag, by the way)? I think it was against Overeem, who's hardly a top fighter, and he was getting mauled. He really looked like the shadow of his former self.

I reckon the next couple of fights will determine if it's cage rust or if he's in decline, as I'm inclined to believe.

I just want to see Cro Cop murder some B+/A- fighters and then comfortably retire.
