mirko was a BEAST back then

after that knee to the head you can tell Cro Cop’s goal was to just punish Tomihira.

Cro cop got exposed int he UFC
When Cro Cop was the Alpha aggressor -he was the beast who destroyed.
When Cro Cop entered the UFC he was stalked…the Beast was no longer the Alpha Beast.

wooow micro kicks harder than a freaking horse
in 7-13-2010 at 13:38:58 from 98.253.0.140
I love mirko, the reason why he kicks so hard is flexibility, someone who has worked on their flexibility can raise there leg up quicker and with more snap then someone trying to force a headkick.

Does that chick ever say anything, or does she just groan and scream?
in 7-13-2010 at 14:52:10 from 68.224.60.28
If it’s 2001…why does it say 99′??? Great fight.

mirko-shii-waaaa!!!
in 7-13-2010 at 15:35:12 from 82.132.98.192
Yes Mirko was one of the best fighters.Now he is still dangerous but he don’t throw so many punches like he used to do.
in 7-13-2010 at 15:50:11 from 208.64.88.178
mma guy i bet it had more to do with his age and being out of his prime rather than him not being the alpha aggressor

Lady commentator came at 07:38

I was drinking lemonade while watching this, until I saw the first head kick and spilt my drink everywhere. Man Cro cop can punish people lol!
in 7-13-2010 at 17:58:36 from 70.181.138.210
Thank you Mr. Bruno.
in 7-13-2010 at 18:22:17 from 69.47.214.177
lol @ lol!!
in 7-13-2010 at 18:45:14 from 75.111.32.28
Man, where did all that speed go!? Look how patient he was back then! Content the hammer around with the leg kicks and jabs until the opponent is softened up enough to go in the for the kill. Cro-Cop got too comfortable with the easy lead leg head kick ko. I miss Cro-Cop back before he was a household name…
in 7-13-2010 at 18:57:19 from 76.111.216.91
Got to give it to that guy for man’ng up and staying in there…
in 7-13-2010 at 19:54:44 from 209.203.69.2
dilleywilley,
Agreed, but he seemed to be too tentative in the UFC. Perhaps father time took its toll.
in 7-13-2010 at 20:46:56 from 125.244.244.226
okay MMA guy, theres a big difference between Cro Cop ten years ago and Cro Cop now.
in 7-13-2010 at 21:56:42 from 98.228.204.60
Incredible amounts of Doom have come from the hands and feet of cro cop, dont watch his highlight reels watch all his fights in his day he was pretty f****** scary.
in 7-13-2010 at 22:55:41 from 98.219.167.118
He was still one of the most entertaining fighters I’ve seen. Him and Wandy are legends imo, they’re heading downhill unfortunately, but we all take that plunge someday..
in 7-13-2010 at 23:13:35 from 98.182.16.166
Wow. I guess a decade can really take it outta you. 
in 7-13-2010 at 23:37:58 from 70.51.126.79
Good Old Days…………
in 7-13-2010 at 23:44:49 from 71.115.0.227
His right kicks are devastating also! Too bad he doesn’t use them for MMA.
in 7-14-2010 at 00:06:19 from 98.151.193.132
WOW i have never seen this one. WOW Cro Cop looked so good. Totally different now. He was checking those kicks SOOO WELL! BRUTAL KICKS. Japanese guys had heart though.
in 7-14-2010 at 02:13:20 from 174.113.146.3
Mirko is the man!! he is a legend!
in 7-14-2010 at 02:33:02 from 173.20.176.174
Sure wish he still had that speed today
in 7-14-2010 at 03:31:32 from 83.38.20.178
Crocop used more highkicks in the first round of this fight than in his entire UFC career.
Definetively not the same fighter.
in 7-14-2010 at 16:52:19 from 187.14.115.229
People cant compare an mma fight with the k-1 event, two diffrent worlds.
The jap took the beating like a man. Cro Cop is legendary, but he alwys had trouble when facing Ernesto Hoost.
Nice Video, this site is the source.
in 7-15-2010 at 10:14:33 from 124.176.158.116
Those kicks were CRISP!
Shame they have slowed a little with age..
in 7-16-2010 at 07:07:08 from 76.90.14.178
I remember Mirko coming to train at a gym I was at.
He put a Duran Duran CD on.
Guess what song.
Wild Boys.
He forgot his CD at the gym.
I was looking to see what music I would play, then I saw Mirko’s CD in the machine.
I laughed to myself, hahaha, that was Mirko Filipovic Crocop’s actual CD, with the entrance song I was so accustomed to.
The guy I marveled at in K-1, and the entrance song I liked.
I used to hussle to get bootleg VHS videos to watch him and all the other K-1 and Pride fighters.
I wanted to take that CD and keep it.
But I didn’t.
I also remember how I was nervous once when Mirko was training in the ring. I was the only other fighter in the gym. There were only 3 people in the gym, Mirko in the ring moving around, the coach by the radio, and I on the floor moving around. I was hoping I would not be invited to move around with Mirko. I missed what Mirko and the coach said but they wee joking and talking to me but I couldn’t hear it clearly, seemed like the topic was sparring, I can’t remember clearly. I was just like, huh, okay, hahaha. Mirko was telling me about the knicknames for his left kick and left cross, one was “death” and the other was “hospital”. hahaha, very funny. No thanks.

these 2 are clearly on different levels of fighting. those are going to be some excellent bruises over the next few days.
in 7-17-2010 at 13:33:23 from 76.171.67.94
That guy is lucky he wasn’t seriously hurt from those kicks. I really think Mirco never got used to the Octogan as opposed to the ring. I think it made him hesitant. You can see it in his face. I have always thought him and Fedor even before they became household names were the best
