Should be a good one as long as it stays on the feet and doesn't turn into a ****fest like Nelson vs Mitrione.

I think Roy really needs to get this down. His drop in speed is going to make it hard for him to compete with cro cop who so much better at striking. Roy is a smart fighter despite what some may think. He use to set slow rhythms to lull his opponents into false sense of security. Playing to the fact he fat to make his opponents think he slower then he is. When in relativity he was one of the fastest heavy weights when he so choose.  He utiized this quite nicely to knock lesser fighters heads off or compete with much more technically sound strikers.  However he lost a lot of that speed, which makes his striking so much less dangerous since he can't land those bombs anymore unless the person he fighting is slower then him aka bigfoot. Roy can still win this fight, but he going to need to utilize his ground game to do so, which I know he will try.  He may succeed, since Roy is quite effective wrestler. Leaning towards Cro Cop and possibly by finish.

Cro Cop by murder.   Nelson's chin is suspect nowadays and with Cro Cop back on the sauce "allegedly", he has regained the power he had back in his PRIDE days and has added a sufficient takedown defense to boot.  Plus, all that fat Nelson carries around is starting to hurt him stamina wise.

@green yeah I'm taking Mirko by left leg death strike or something viscious. 

I will never forget that shellacking he put on Gonzaga, possibly the nastiest Gnp Ive ever seen and his face had to be literally sewn back together post fight.
