Here is the most up to date info on CroCop.My personal opinion is he should throw in the towel......
The biggest headline came just this morning and was not a positive one, as it was revealed that
Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic has now been
completely scratched from the July 21st DREAM card. Originally slated to face kickboxer
Jerome Le Banner in an MMA rules match, and then
"Mighty Mo" Siliga after Le Banner instead chose to partake in a K-1 championship bout against
Semmy Schilt, Filipovic
revealed on his blog today that he has opted to rehab a knee injury and undergo arthoscopic surgery on his apparently long-ailing right elbow after learning that Siliga too would withdraw.
My goal is to become the first heavyweight champion in DREAM and to do that I need to be ready to fight on September 23 [when
DREAM.6 is scheduled to take place]. I'm not interested in summer time, vacations or things like that; I'll focus on getting back to shape and hopefully I'll fight in September. I would really like to fight
Alistair Overeem,
we all know why and I won't let it go. My career is far from being over, I'll be fighting some strong competitors soon again and hopefully I'll meet
Fedor in the ring once more in 2009.
