i just don't think crocop really cares to fight anymore... didn't he already declare he wishes to retire? He's lost the spirit and i really doubt he cares much about winning in general as long as he's getting paid. If thats his mentality i wouldn't be surprised if his between fight training is lacking...
Its too early to give up on Cro Cop or Liddell and I think the people who are aren't real fans. It is easy to root for fighters on top, the test comes when they're down.
It would be such a shame to see such talent go away like this..
I have full faith Mirko CroCop Filipovic can come back and I will wait till that day comes. I don't think it's that he's one dimensional, I think it's that he is mentally defeated. Mirko, please show us why you're one of the most devastating strikers in the history of MMA. I believe Mirko CroCop has more than enough of what it takes to become champion.. It's just really a matter of putting it into use.
Mirko "CroCop" Filipovic FIGHTING!~~~

Cro Cop hasn’t been taking the company’s phone calls of late and his future is very much in doubt. With such a high downside guarantee to go with his lackluster performance, he has become very expendable.
I hope he's just taking some time off to get his head together. He definitely jumped back into the fold WAY too soon after the Gonzaga fight. He needs to decide what's best for his future, because personally I'd rather see him retire than take absolute beatings like we've seen in the UFC.
Come back Mirko and prove to everyone that you're still one of the best!
anyone speak crotian here
we should send cro cop an email indicating......what a contract is

The most solid advice I can give to anyone who fights BJ Penn is...do not motivate the guy. Lets face it, BJ although talented, is naturally lazy. Your job is to NOT convince him to step on that treadmill.
CroCop doesnt need to retire permanently like so many people claim, but if his head isnt in the game he could take a couple years off.
It could really help clear his head and get him back into the champion mindset.
in a couple of years he will be out of his prime.....i know i know randy can do it.....but cro cop more than likely has a few more long term injuries

Might be worth swapping some conditioning for some hunger and drive, though.
Anyway, some physical attributes are still improving at his age (strength) and intelligence and experience never stop increasing. So if he is hungry enough he ought to be able to figure out how to use those to compensate a bit of loss of speed, cardio or whatever.

strength is actually deminishing......i just cant see him taking 2 years off and comming back and dominating....two years for athlete.....is a lifetime
