Congratulations on your well researched article.

And yes a first round TKO how unimpressive, it’s only like Chuck Liddell used to do all the time when everyone cheered, but still unimpressive. Now he’s only good if Dana White says so.

It’s all business, and Cro Cop honored his 1-fight contract with UFC. I don’t blame Cro Cop for going to Dream if it means he can fight more often, and he has a chance against Fedor. He can’t do that in UFC. Arlovsky and Silvia both left UFC because they wouldn’t have the opportunity to fight Fedor if they stayed.

I find it hard to believe most things that Dana White says anyway (in reference to a verbal agreement Cro Cop said to DW that he’d do a 3-fight contract with UFC).

I support Cro Cop no matter where he goes, just as long as he fights 100%. DW just needs to accept that he doesn’t always get his way. I see no wrong-doing that Cro Cop did. People said Cro Cop promised people a run for the UFC heavyweight title. Well, I am sure he is still interested in that, and perhaps DW will let him return. Let’s just support the man.

Business and pro sports are definitely shady. Dana had said that he really would only trust Cro Cop like this and then when things fell through it looks like the one person Dana thought he could trust had hit the door.
It was interesting to me that Dana even commented on the no contract deal… Confirming it just made Mirko more valuable to anyone looking to pull one over on the UFC or atleast win a little Press.
