I'll be pissed beyond belief if Mirko subs Kongo. This should be a great standing battle. Does anyone know what the starting bid on Ebay will be on Kongo's head once it's severed from his body by Mirko's LHK?

I'd rather of seen Mirko fight Sylvia, but this will be a good fight for him to get back to his winning way.

Yeah, me too. But, hopefully when Fedor comes into the UFC, they'll give him Timmy as a tuneup.

LOL anyone got a gif of him getting knocked out like a little ****ing retard?

Nah, but Mirko is pissed now. We may have some actual deaths in MMA when Mirko comes back.

Side-note, for all boxing fans who hate UFC, please watch mirko's fights when he comes back. It's like watching Mike Tyson punching with his legs.:boxing:
The snapping sound alone when his legs connect is enough to send chills down your spine.

I hate johnny suck latelys like yourself.

You watch 2 or 3 matches and you think you're somekind of authority on the subject of mma.

Nah, I don't think he thinks of himself as some kind of authority. He's more of the kind that say "if you got knocked out, you have a glass jaw" type. He's the one that really doesn't understand that the punch that knocks you out is usually the one you didn't see coming. He's a retard. Pay him no mind Army.

I lived with Mirko in a gym for two months, in the same room. He doesn’t have a warrior’s heart. You just have to see his style, always backwards. Peter Aerts said something I agree on: “The longer the fight takes, the more chances Mirko has of losing it.” He has no heart to turn a fight upside down.

I disagree.

While I do believe that he does get flustered when things aren't going exactly as planned, but look no farther then his last fights in Pride. He had Silva pressing him the whole time the fight lasted, he basically dominanted a very very game oppenent in Barnett.

Very sad. Mirko always reminds me of a very smart guy working in a go-nowhere cubical job. The guy is mad talented, but he has no ambition of furthering himself. It seems like he only gets a pulse when he loses in a brutal fashion. I would love to see a Crocop with a Kevin Randleman heart and work ethic. It would be funny if he pulled a Pulver and started to train with GG, though, I'm sure FW wouldn't care too much for that.
