Anthony Hamilton just took a **** on the chest of the Cro Cop Revenge Tour™. What a ****.

No Mitrione?

Confirmed.

Prediction: Filipović  |  KO/TKO  |  Round 1

Mitrione would have been way better.

You'd rather have Mitrione? Do you really enjoy seeing a 41-year-old man get brutally KOed that much?

Prediction: Filipović  |  KO/TKO  |  Round 1

I'd rather Cro Cop fight Hamilton for three reasons:

1.) I'm not a sick sadomasochist that wants to see one of the greatest Heavyweights of all time get pummeled to a pulp by Matt Mitrione.

2.) This fight is still a decent fight for a Cro Cop that is on the back end of his career that will probably not make the same kind of resurgence Frank Mir and Andrei Arlovski are making.

3.) Conversely, this is also a good test for Hamilton that could be a stepping stone for him to further himself in the UFC Heavyweight division.

I guess CC will not get his rematches.

Guys, guys, by "look alike" he just meant they both appear to be explosive athletes.

If these are the kind of fights the UFC brought CroCop back for they shouldn't have bothered. Unless they're just trying to maintain his streak and name value between shows he headlines.Though that strategy could easily backfire. He's 41 and a heavyweight.

Sounds like Cro Cop may be injured and out of fight. Posted about an injured shoulder on facebook.
