What if Cro Cop took up boxing?

Crocop is not good enough. Just watch a lot of his K1 matches. He's a one-side fighter who barely uses both of his arms. The last time was when he fought Barnett.

he has 15 - 6 i think, as an amateur boxer... and he was training with Wladimir i think, for week or two, few years ago.

he is much better pure boxer than all mma guys (maybe anderson is better or Kharitonov), but he rarely let's his hands go.

his kicks are his best weapon, especially when he set's them up with boxing.

sergei kharitonov is interesting as a boxer, he was olympic candidate before, but he had GP in 2004.

Nah, I don't think he would make it big. The only good thing that stands out of him is the leg kicks in my opinion.

Mirko is one of my favorite mma and k-1 fighters but he doesn't have the chin for boxing.Also his best weapon is his kicks,his legs are like tree trunks.His hands are just used for setting up his kicks.

He claims a 40-5 amateur boxing record. I doubt he would have done all that well.

Mirko Filipovic aka Cro Cop as a boxer...wouldnt that be something? He's so tough he could make it big. And he's fast. And strong, not least.

Crop cop would get freaking mangled in the ring...he is known for those trunk for legs he has...and the kicking power he has....them trunks are his main weapon...take those out and the submissions and you got a mediocre boxer at best...

well, he did already face and lose to Mark Hunt in a mostly standup mma fight, and Mark Hunt only sparingly uses kicks, mostly just punches. Mark Hunt is a kickboxing grand prix champion.

Mark Hunt went 0-1-1 in pro boxing.

so...I dont think CroCop would get far, no offense to him.
