Mirko Cro Cop

I don’t follow nhb fighting as much as I should, but I’ve never heard of this guy before. He seems like a badass, tho.

I was suprised at how successfully he threw high kicks! Kinda makes you wonder about the “high kicks don’t work in a fight” thing. Altho, maybe his opponents were really tired or something, and then it probably becomes a higher percentage move. What do you think?

looks pretty cool, he should get better background music though, Evanescents sucks a$$. I think their nameis oddly apropriate :wink:

^ wtf? I wasn’t trolling. I posted a video that I thought people might enjoy, and I said it was strange how many high kicks he used, because that goes against classical MMA belief. And since the high kicks were used in a professional NHB arena, it’s a little bit better proof than seeing high kicks used at a TKD tournament.

But I wasn’t trying to be all like “bite me, high kicks rule!” or anything. Geez.

I don’t think he picked the music, nor made the video.

it looks pretty good otherwise, his kicking is pretty good and he looks like he has some interesting training methods too.

CroCop has been discussed a few times here..

but anyway.. I think he is one of the hardest kickers I’ve ever seen… I love a part of one vid I saw of him, he kicked some dude in the side, then the do a close up of said dude, and you could see his ribs in the bruise that was left from said kick.

did u see what he did to Wandy’s ribs :eek:… if kro cop is a god… wandy is like Zues or some ish… that being said… McDonald KO’d him with a quickness… no one is immune…

oh… 2 month ago called…

I take it you are not a huge MMA fan. HIgh kicks have worked in MMA since 1996 when Maurice Smith won the Extreme fighting heavyweight title from Conan Silveria. Head high kicks only didn’t work in NHB/MMA from '93 to '96. I think truewrestler posted that video a while ago, thanks anyways though

Mirko is one of my faves. And for the record, he KTFO of peeps that are fresh (see Igor Vovchanchyn -sp-). He has some of the strongest short-range punches I have ever seen (see the Waterman fight). I do think he needs to work on some of his hand defenses (see the Yamamoto fight) since he tends to reach when people start flailing which opens him for all sorts of blows. He is maturing well and I cant wait for a Wandy/Nogueria/Fedor (re)match.

Watermant took him right down;)

His song of choice when entering the ring is Duran Duran’s “Wild Boys” (which sux @ss even more than Evanescence) :smiley:

Did you guys know Mirko made a movie just a few days ago? It’s called “Ultimate 7”; here's the link.

Jesus, CroCop is in parliment?

I’d take Duran Duran over Evenascents any day of the week. I’m still ****ed off at having to hear it!

Yes, he was invited into politics (and was placed very high on the list, so he got into Parliament pretty easy) by our former Prime minister.
Didn’t help him to stay the Prime minister though

Lol Waterman took him down… only to get soccer-kicked into submission. Doh.

That part was cool

I’m sure Waterman’s a good fighter and a tough guy and would choke me out and all that, but…

Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, anyone?

cro cop is one bad s.o.b he broke sakuraba’s and sapp’s orbital bone with a straight right, broke herring’s ribs, knocked igor out cold, was able to knockdown nog unlike most fighters in the past. he is one of the best strikes in MMA, i dont think any fighter can compare to him at this time..
