Look lets face it the only people who have a chance to beat Cro Cop in the UFC are Randy,Arlovski, and Vera. Randy seems to have the most effective style and you’ve seen Cro cops fight with Fedor you know what I’m talking about. Yes Fedor is on a completey supreme level but if Couture can keep coming at Cro cop like Fedor did it doesn’t give him time to properly plan his lighting quick strikes. Cro cop needs room and if Couture gives him none it will be a damn good fight. I still am rooting for the Cro cop though cuz I love strikers!

Randy better not employ that strategy because it made the match against Silvia horribly boring. That main event was lame, and I hope if he tries to do it against Mirko he gets smashed.

Oh, agreed, but I don’t think he’ll use the same game plan. That would be suicide, and I trust he knows it. Still, my pick is Filipovic over Coture if this is the way it pans out. Not the result I want, but the one I’d put money on…

Cro Cop v Couture… if Randy uses the same technique against Mirko that he did against Tim, I think he will be in trouble. That space will allow some awfully nasty head kicks, and Mirko is a better puncher than Tim. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve been a fan of Couture for many years. He is absolutely awesome. But Mirko could do some damage to him, and I don’t want to see that.

Great article. Couture is a legend and I agree that this victory will vault the Crop Cop match into the stratosphere. Maybe even past Chuck and Tito if promoted right.
