Somebody already came up with a great 2 minute promo for the newly announced Mir vs. Cro Cop.
Filipovic replaces Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira in the UFC 119 main event on Sept. 25 at the Conseco Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Nogueira withdrew from the match because of a hip and knee injury.

tmr Said,
I like the promo, not so much the matchup. Poor Mirko is going to get smashed.
Afraid toa say that this will be a first round submission for that douche bag Mir. Crocop has a very poor ground game despite Rogan Joe's lame attempts to hype it up to noobs. No doubt he will make such comments as "Cro cop has a very underrated ground game Mike!" seconds before Mir pulls guard and kimura's him. Then Mir will painstakingly watch every second of the fight, give interviews about how he planned evry move, and then mouth off about how he has fixed all the holes in his game by lifting heavier weights and that he would now beat Brock Lesnar. This is a totally lame match up, have him fight Roy Nelson or something. Croc cop's stand up is nothing to shout about these days, just circle away from his left foot. He doesn't set up his power shots, doesn't throw leg kicks, he has no game plan and a weak will + no ground. Sucks but i think big nog is finished now.
hey joobs I hate to say it but you talk about NOOBS being tricked by rogan… just because you have been into mma since UFC 91 doesn't make you a "true" fan of the sport dumbass. Mirko has only lost twice by submission in over 35 fights… youve got to be a freakin shitfaced moron to think that makes anybody's ground game poor. fuck face

If only Mirko could win. Mir by 2nd round KO. With that said lets go Mirko. Plz dont bitch out! LOL
(hopefully we can see Mirko vs Nog2 sometime before he retires)
Mir KO? Nah..I have Cro-Cop kicking Mir in his liver and making Mir fall to the ground. Then we will see Mir looking for a clean place to tap.
LOL…we'll see.
ur crazy whens the last time u saw frank pull guard…his ego is too big it wouldnt surprise me if mir laid cro cop out on the feet or it could go the other way around… mirko does have an ok ground game but mir's should smoke…but hey weve seen crazier
Excellent promotional video, the question is will there be an excellent fight? Many of you here commented, Mir will defeat Crocop. We'll I say… don't be so confident because Crocop will put up a sure win fight.
Thank you for your reply.
I will admit I was trying to reconsider my life after I fucked your mother and had you, Son. Mistakes happen.
I wanted to inform you in person, but you left me no choice. Don't worry though, you play the Bastard role perfectly. Tell your mom "hello" for me, will you?
If Cro Cop isn't so hesitant with "pulling the trigger" on his strikes, then I think it will be nighty-night for Mir. If he is hesitant, then he'll probably end up being submitted. Mir has been beaten silly in recent memory, though.
Cro Cop has been fighting scrubs! He has already said that the 5wk notice isnt enough time for him meaning hes already making excuses. Mir is due for a win he only looses against roiders.
i wish it was nighty night for you PERMANENTLY… find someone who owns a gun and use it on yourself
Yeah, he hasn't been fighting top competition, but now he has a chance to step it up. If you're not gonna retire, you have to try and be the best, and fight the best. The last part of your reply is pretty lame.
hasnt been fighting top competition b/c he cant! havnt you heard the sayings that he SAID doesnt have it IN him anymore? you can be up for the fight physically but if your not in the fight mentally then you have already LOST… you should know about that gingerbread girl FYL
(imo hes another fighter who cant win properly without that overseas juice like in pride)
Both great fighters with a long career in MMA. Mirko has an impressive kick KO and Mir is an artist in submission but this time with a new game coming out: BOXING improvement.
We will see in UFC 119 who will win the fight.
Maybe so, but he did take the fight, if he felt he didn't have a shot, why would he take the fight, and why would he still compete? Possibly money, but fighters have a will to win, no matter how over the hill they are. I think Cro Cop still has some fight in him, he just can't hesitate to open up his striking.
stay out of this jr.. will to win? will to not get too beat up and collect a pay check.. comes to a certain age when you admit to yourself you dont have it anymore (AHEM). once you admit that to yourself you will only be a mirror shadow of yourself (cro cop). if you dont care to believe it you will beat lesser opponents but lose to similar or great opponents (liddell)
What makes you think my opinions are facts? It's not like I said it's a fact that Cro Cop is not fighting for money. I don't like typing IMO for everything I say, it should just be a given.
90% of the fans on this site post their opinions as facts. I use phrases like 'I think' & 'possibly' all the time as a subtle hint that they are opinions, and I get persecuted for stating opinions as facts? Crazy.
Jesus mathboy I just dont understand why you spend the time to reply to ppl that arent talking about MMA. Don`t you have something better to do?
I have to go with Cro Cop in this fight, Mir has shit for take downs. Cro Cop will be able to keep it standing. Cro Cop needs to stop being afraid to throw for the fences like he used to. He hasn`t been agressive enough as of late
his ego and lack of a personal life .. mainly his ego.. he postures online b/c his posture in life sux.. with a face like that i would stay indoors, too
i wonder what mir is going to weigh at this time.. i think under 250
Actually, I side with Aftermathematic on "posting MMA comments". Thanks anyways.
Some Brits sound alike, does that mean they are the same person? You sound like a crackhead with two cheeseburgers, does that mean the crackhead and Ronin are one in the same?
I am flattered with the time you spent in researching this link. It makes me feel like I am the center of your attention………..wait, oh shit, I was! Well, FYI, I am NOT gay? Whoa Nelly!
Thanks anyways.
Ah ha ha ha ha. Man, that was funny. And you sound just like a Crackhead with two cheeseburgers…lol
When did he say he was not 100%? I do recall Cro-Cop saying that he wanted to stay with the UFC during his (Pat Barry) post fight interview. Then a few days later, he was thinking retirement. So, your (MMA) comment does make sense as far as his mental state goes.
I guess we will know when we observe his demeanor as he walks towards the Octagon.
It's tough not being a Mir fan because I have to bet against him no matter who he fights, ie. Kongo!
I truly feel Cro-Cop will beat him if he shows up.

What do you think research is, you dumb fuck! It's not like that particular comment was a highlight on his page!
Shouldn't you be minding your own business by now?
Mir I think is going to destroy Cro Cop. He's a better boxer then Mirko and if he's worried about kicks, as he was in the Kongo fight, he has little trouble closing the distance to punching range. The only way Mir has had any trouble at all since he started getting serious with his training is people that can hold him in place and completely restrict his movement (Carwin against the fence, Lesnar on the ground). Mir has lately had much sharper stand up than Cro Cop, and he's been keeping himself in much better shape.
Also, don't automatically assume that Mir's takedowns are still crap. He practiced takedowns extensively in preparation for the Kongo fight, but he never had to use one there, and he hasn't shot for one since. Mir has shown the ability to suddenly leap ahead in skill. Having trained his stand up in preparation for Lesnar at 100, he annihilated Nogueira (who has decent hands) on his feet, and the fight after Lesnar he sent Kongo to the mat in a single punch. If he put the same amount of dedication he obviously applied to his stand up skills to his wrestling, he could be sitting on a crazy effective weapon no one has ever seen. This is a bad match up for Mirko anyway you look at it.
I like the promo, not so much the matchup. Poor Mirko is going to get smashed.

August 17th, 2010 at 12:02 pmGo Crocop!
Would like to see Mur fight Nog again though. Nothing makes me happier than seeing Mur get smacked around.
August 17th, 2010 at 12:50 pmI must agree with JOOBS.
August 17th, 2010 at 12:58 pmHowever i do hope Crocop comes out agressive and wins by ko.
Haha! So much love for Mir on this page…
August 17th, 2010 at 1:58 pmMirko vs Mir who's going to KO who?
August 17th, 2010 at 2:27 pmYou were completely accurate about how Mir will act if the fight goes his way. As far as what you say about Cro-Cop…..you should reconsider.
August 17th, 2010 at 4:59 pmMir KO? Nah..I have Cro-Cop kicking Mir in his liver and making Mir fall to the ground. Then we will see Mir looking for a clean place to tap.
August 17th, 2010 at 5:03 pmLOL…we'll see.

August 17th, 2010 at 8:01 pmI hope Crop Cop knocks out Mir with a left high kick.That would make my day.

Now, what was your MMA comment again?
August 18th, 2010 at 3:32 pmYou sound just like aftermathematic… lol
August 18th, 2010 at 5:50 pmmy mma comment is that cro-cop said he's not 100% which makes me not 100% sure i want to see this bout

August 19th, 2010 at 10:30 amBut I hope Cro Crop suprises with an KO and win, altough it´s hard to happen
