MIr: ‘Cro Cop’ doesn’t have a single advantage over me

I think Crocop is still the same individual we saw in PRIDE. I think a lot of guys have seen enough tape on him to know that if you walk away from him or stand there in front of him you could be in for a dangerous night because he still has the same leg he always had.

He has a lot of speed and quickness… Mirko is very good on his feet; I’m not bad on my feet either. Add in the wrestling that I have been working on, the jiu jitsu aspect, he has many more things to worry about. Once that cage door shuts every advantage is mine.

I don’t see anywhere I don’t feel comfortable with CroCop – I can beat him in more ways than he can beat me.
