    I'm sure Cro-Cop will get a hero's welcome in Japan, but his days as a top 10 fighter are long gone.

    His tenure with UFC has to be considered one of the biggest disasters in recent MMA history.

    Yeah, CroCop is pretty much shot. Too bad, he was fun to watch in his prime.

    I doubt it would matter much at this point. He's shell shocked.

    It doesn't matter what he does in Japan. His stint in the UFC has fucked his career (in terms of "greatness") over. He was arrogant in thinking that he could take the UFC with little effort and ended up looking like shit. His arrogance and laziness is what stops him from being a truly great fighter...

    UFC will be re-playing Cro Cop's folding in half by Gonzaga for years to come. They got their money's worth.:lol:

    Yeah, he's a very frustrating fighter to be a fan of. At times he looks unbeatable and others he looks like he doesn't give a shit...

    I actually just read that CroCop has just renewed his contract with the UFC for another few fights. He supposedly may fight as early as March.
