What does cro-cop have to lose? will people think less of him if he loses to a top grappler in a grappleing only match?

Cro Cop had been training grappling for years. If you (brandon) actually think he just started after his Gonzaga fight, you are completely mistaken. The guy trained BJJ privately under under Werdum for a year and a half. He has been submitted once in his MMA career…I am pretty sure the guy knows how to grapple. His take-down defense is incredible, just look at the Mark Coleman or Randleman fights. Even Fedor had trouble at first taking Mirko down. Mirko will do quite well in this match I bet. My prediction is a draw.

I think he is just looking for pay days. I mean if he loses to a guy with 1-0-0 record in Dream…..then pfffft……

until cro cop shows us hes back to his best with a good win the jury is out, he got beat in the ufc by fighters who were big underdogs against him.i think he needs to show what he has left now and people shouldnt rate him as the cro cop of old till he does.

I know Mirko is getting up there in age, but he’s still a really good fighter. Maybe he’s trying to harnest his skils, train hard in a specific area where his game is week and get better at it. This guy might not care about a win in this situation but might care about improving his game. And why not fight a world class BJJ guy to do that. I like the idea, win or loose. Get a few more fights under his belt and come back and claim the HW belt in the UFC. Right now, the HW title in the UFC is a joke!

I wonder what the betting odds are for Cro Cop to win. This sounds like a bad risky move for Cro Cop to me. Just fight MMA and call it a day. Nothing makes sense about this other than the Dream promotion trying to look “different” by having this style of match. Have they done this before?

Maybe he wants to prove that he actually learned some BJJ? I know he wasn’t even training ground before he was handed his loss to Gonzaga. That by his own admission. Buy anyhow I see him losing or possibly pulling out a draw. no way he wins.
