    Thumbs up Sorry Boys CroCop to UFC is still in the air

    http://www.mmaweekly.com/absolutenm/...=3143&zoneid=2

    THis is the source.

    Last night i watch CroCop vs Fedor fight, and i gotta tell you that CroCop was good in round 1 but it was all downfall after that, he was gased out.

    If he is a true fighter he will seek to avenge that lost, and every true MMA fan wants to see CroCop vs Fedor 2.

    SHerdog made some match ups for CroCop in the UFC but i still think its not worth the jump, i mean against Arvloski would be a good bang, but other then that everything else would suck.

    Fedor contract is up has well, so i guess the best MMA fighters on the planet are up for grabs, who knows maybe K1 Hero will grab both of them and we can see there rematch there.

    Lets hope Fedor doesnt waste is time in Bodog.

    Crocop and Fedor are both Celebrity/God status in Japan so they will be able to go back there anytime if they wish, maybe for now they just want to squeeze all the other MMA sources out of their cash first!!
    UFC has grown massively in the past two years but it still has a reputation for not being gauranteed, i mean you could be gone anyday they really dont commit to fighters regardless of who they are.
    Fedor's US management called White Chocolate are on a mission to expose him worldwide so if the money is right he will be there!

    I have read some posts on sherdog with alleged insider info that cro-cop is fighting Eddie Sanchez in February. As far as cro-cop dominating the UFC HW division, I think he will be the HW champ. However i don't think he will dominate Tim Silvia as much as everyone else does. I used to be a Tim Silvia basher like everyone else, and it's true that he hasn't fought the caliber of talent that cro-cop has, but i think he is a tough match up for Mirko. Here is why. Silvia has solid stand up. His 2nd fight with Arlovski may have been the cure for insomnia, but it proved he can keep a good striker at bay. He has a long reach, and a great sprawl (not that it matters against mirko). In my opinion the most important factor that will make silvia tough for cro-cop is silvia's height. I haven't seen all of cro-cop' fights, but i don't remember him connecting a shin to the head of someone as tall as silvia. Cro-cop may have to resort to low kicks instead of the high left. Anyway, I give mirko the definite edge, but silvia won't be a pushover. Feel free to correct me if i'm wrong.

    Crocop is much faster then Silvia, it might not be easy for him but he will knock him out

    I'm not flaming CJC1981 here, but I wipe my ass with most of Sherdog's "insider info". I hope that CC does go to the UFC and I also hope that they will bring in more HW talent such as Heath Herring, but I certainly don't consider it a foregone conclusion like some seem to. Hopefully there will be a big announcement this Saturday night.

    As for CC vs Sylvia, I also don't see it being the utter destruction everyone else does, but I do see CC winning by KO. And I'm pretty sure he could lay that left shin upside Big Tim's dome, but even if he couldn't, his striking is above and beyond anything Sylvia has ever seen.
