Forrest: "CroCop Him!!"

(I posted this in the TUF forum, but then it occurs to me that for most Contenders readers, going to the TUF forum is akin to denouncing their God and stepping onto unholy land or something. Nonetheless, I figured some CroCop fans lurking here would get a kick out of this.)


In the most recent episode of TUF...

Did anyone else catch this?

It was during Amir's fight this episode when Forrest was cornering him. At one point, during one of Gerald's many takedowns into Amir's guard, Amir opened his guard and had his feet near Gerald's hips. At this point if you listen you can clearly hear Forrest in the corner yelling:

"There you go. Now! CroCop! Come on! CroCop up! CroCop up to your feet! Now! Come on! CROCOP HIM!!!"

I had to rewind it when I heard that, I thought it was pretty cool and funny.




* for those few unaware - when on your back, to "CroCop up" is to push off your opponent's hips with your feet and quickly stand.

I thought Forrest said he would shave half of his head if Amir won, what a sellout

I watched the show, but I didn't hear him say that. That's pretty funny though. To Cro Crop; nice verb.

Funny, and good to hear that some still remember the good old CroCop-days, where he had what was (at least in my opinion) the best sprawl around, and a nice ability to get the fight into his element, which was, and still is, standup.
