you don't get it , because you dont came from small county like Croatia , there are only few good guys in MMA from Croatia... And of course that they will watch to each other , its different thing in America they have like 300.000.000 people and Croatia only 4 milion people , and all who is involved in MMA are good friends, because there are no many people that train MMA in my country...

I didn't get to see the PPV. It would be cool to see a GIF of this. It would be interesting to see his expression.

Good job CC. Reminds me of Arlovski fighting...dammit I can't remember. I was hoping that CC would have gone for a nice left hook for the ko.
Good for Perosh to step up and fight CC on extremely short notice.

I think you are referring to the O'brien vs AA fight. Sometimes a one sided butt kicking just isn't right, but you can't just make the other person give up.

I believe Mirko let up once Anthony was cut, but it doesn't explain why he appeared to let up before the cut had even taken place?

Mirko is a slow starter....but against a guy like Anthony, it may have appeared that he gave him to much respect at the start.

Mirko should have known he should be looking to impress...and him taking 2 full rounds to beat a guy who lost to Te Huena by TKO leads me to think why?

I want Mirko of old to come back and be great, but he didn't appear to confident in my opinion until the 2nd round.

Then he cut Anthony and he let up for a while....then finally it looked like he got pissed that Anthony wanted to keep fighting, and he got angry and finally started fighting like a killer....looking to knock Anthony's head off his body.

I hope I don't see this slow starting Mirko again, but I guess we'll see which Mirko shows up next time....I just hope it's the angry pissed Mirko, not the I'm above this guy or I feel bad for beating him Mirko.

I wanna see Roy Nelson take a brutal kick to the gut from Crocop at full speed. Then watch him crumble to his feet with tears in his eyes, only for Crocop to finish him with a couple of giant semi unnesessary blows to knock him out cold.

Thats also the same reason Chuck Liddell didn't knock out Rampage when they fought for the title, and the reason Wanderlei hasn't knocked out his last opponents.

Jeez...
