Oooh nevermind – just looked along the feeds on the left. There’s your answer fishbulb!

Any word on what Mirko’s big announcement was today?

I’ve seen pics of him shaking hands and sitting at a microphone for the K-1 Dreamers/Yarenokka crew…I assume he’s bolted?

LOL – my bad.

Apologies for being Capt. Serious.

Or perhaps your inability to pick up on obvious sarcasm in posts (I mean, a Chris Leben reference? BIG clue there) is a sign of you taking things too seriously around here.

I wonder if we might see a Fedor-Mirko or Mirko-Hunt rematch in the near future, if he’s done with the UFC.

Unfortunately Fedor-Mirko sounds too competitive for Fedor at this point.

That basically sums up the intelligence level of your posts right there.

Stop being stubborn Gaijin. The competition is weaker in Japan, just as Chris Leben said. Just accept it.

If he’s getting lowballed, while under contract mind you – and then cut loose for not accepting less money – where else would he go?

And as for the competition being weaker, with the state of the HW division at present and in the near future, I don’t really think that’s true at all.

Mirko vs. Sentoryu is about as credible as the Mirko vs. Lesnar fight that just “had to happen”. Meaning both are garbage…

Mirko is fleeing to Japan where the competition is weaker. Maybe they Sentoryu lined up for him.

Anyone want to start taking bets on how long it is before there’s an interview with Dana to the effect of:

“Cro Cop’s such a pussy primadonna. He didn’t want to stay in the UFC with the best fighters, he’s not a real f*ckin fighter [b/c he refused to take a huge paycut, even though he's under contract and we've been constantly calling out Randy and Tito for trying to renegotiate while under contract]. He just ran away with his tail between his legs – this isn’t Japan man.”

Anyone?
