Hello TUF dipshit.  ::)

CroCop by KO.

  You are the dumbest person I 've ever talked to...you have no knowledge of MMA what so ever. You speak as guy who'd never in his life had anything to do with martial arts or any other kind of sports at all,  you shouldnt be even talking about MMA, an average 13 year old knows more about MMA than you ....just delete your acct your fuckin idiot....I really cant figure out where a stuck up dork like you gets all that confidence  about his knowledge in sports, ....what a joke you are , you fuckin clown.....

hahahaha, are you fucking retarded? You're going Coutore by decision, you picked Gomi destroying Diaz and whatever other retarded claims you've made. It's 100% obvious that you haven't been watching MMA more than a month at the most and you know jack shit about it. Watch something other than Ultimate Fight Night and TUF reruns and come back and talk. Until then I'm going to keep talking shit about how fucking pathetic you are. Why even come to this forum? You don't watch MMA, you don't train, you don't know anything about it. Get off the bandwagon and stick to knitting or maybe that 3g of test per week you take.  ::)

Still can't believe this dipshit is claiming Coutore by decision. Beat some mediocre fighter with no ability and all of a sudden you're on par with arguably the greatest striker in the world who also has the greatest takedown defense around.

Does he know anything?

Let me say I love Randy Couture, that being said, he better come up with a hell of a gameplan to get a UD out of Mirko.  Mirko feasts off of grappling based fighters.  Unfortunately, I see Mirko by KO.

First you claimed Gomi would "DESTROY" Diaz like a fucking retard. And now you're claiming Couture rivals CroCop in striking. You are fucking retarded and know absolutely nothing about MMA. Stick to TUF.

If i recall correctly, cro-cops losses have been to the better grapplers, not the average ones, so in theory, randy could take cro-cop down and ground and pound him, but on the other hand, cro-cop catches randy on the way in and the fight is over, think it will be a great fight either way

I'd say Crocop.

Couture will have a gameplan and will try to stick with it.
However CC defended pretty good against Fedor on the ground and will probably not be troubled there.

Back on their feet, Mirko will own him bad. He'll probably not go for the high kicks, just some boxing with low kicks mixed in.

im not so sure i would automatically say crocop given it will be with a cage

in the ring i would give it to him because at this poin in his game his ground skills (combined with his athleticism) should give him the confidence to knock the ever living fuck out of randy without fear of going ot the ground ... if its a cage i would probably still bet on cropcop, but could easily see randy pinning him and using good controll to pumel him 4 5 rounds

Randy surprised me to no end, what a performance from him. Its the stuff dreams are made from and you only ever see in a film, but lets be serious here. Crocop is a killer who would have KO'd Tim within 2 easy rounds, Randy isnt going to pull of a miracle by any means. If he manages to beat Mirko i will openly pay $100 to anyone willing to take a bet with me.

I fully expect Mirko to walk through anybody that has the balls to fight him and fight Fedor for a "unification" bout in January 2008

I like CC to catch Randy late in the 3rd or 4th and KO him.  I think the first few rounds will be Randy and CC feeling each other out.  I don't think CC will be Randy's first defense though.

the thing is, Cro Cop will win...but...

With that bum Sylvia it would take like 2 or 3 minutes depending on how much Cro Cop would like to play or not....

now with Couture its a differente game...he will have to FIGHT...he will win, but probably it will not be easy

Mirko's losses came at the hands of:

1.  Mark Hunt (SD)
2.  Fedor (UD) both were on their feet
3.  Kevin Randleman (KO) Flash knockout with a lucky overhand
4.  Big Nog (Sub) armbar from nowhere after getting his nose broken.

Some grappling based fighters he has beaten:

Josh Barnett (2X)
Kazuyuki Fujita (2X)
Kazushi Sakuraba
Ron Waterman
Kevin Randleman
Mark Coleman
Ibrgim Magomedov
Hideohiko Yoshida
Ikuhisa Minowa

So No, grapplers don't fare well against CC. 

Add to the list strikers:

Igor Vov
Aleks Emalienko
Wanderlei Silva
Heath Herring (well rounded)

But hell, it is Captain America CC is fighting, so who knows.  Just not good odds.

the Hunt decision was wierd, it was as if Mirko was another fighter altogether. Randleman caught him beautifully and proved he is human, Fedor fought well and Mirko strangely gassed early. All these fights could have gone the other way but nobody is unbeatable. He is a much better fighter right now, its as if he has finally realised his full potential and is fighting at his absolute best in every match. On current form he would give Fedor the fight of his life

I don't see how Couture beats an incredibly overrated fighter who wasn't deserving of his belt in a 5 round grinder and now all of a sudden he's capable of striking and beating CroCop? The guy is fighting better than ever and now people are saying Couture can beat him? Not a chance. Tim Syvlia is not Mirko CroCop.

All those that think Couture can strike like Crocop need to watch CroCop vs. Sapp, and CroCop vs. Silva, end of story..
not saying Randy is a bad striker but he has NOWHERE near the power CC has, not even close.

Mirko has been criticized that when he is pushed, he wilts like a bully.  In the Hunt and Fedor fight, he realized his best strikes (multiple kicks and straight left hands) weren't effective at all.  Fedor stood with CC and won.  As did Hunt.  If Mirko was smart, he would have grounded Hunt and subbed him.  Good luck doing that to Fedor, though.  Against Randy, he will stay at range and pick him apart.  In the second Wandy fight, CC did a lot of damage from inside Wandy's guard, swelling Wandy's right eye.  The LHK came right at Wandy's right eye, which was effectively closed by Mirko's underappreciated GNP.

Thanks for the list and results, actually had a friend of mine tell me about cro-cop losing to the grapplers, he is a bigger pride fan than i am, but i am coming around, just really enjoy all mma, even the bodog fights on ion network, so i guess i am learning, but again, thanks for the list

Randy's only hope would be to use the cage to his advantage, get the takedowns and hold Crocop down for 5 rounds... he's not gonna stand up in this one.

I can see where Randy was coming from taking on Sylvia, he saw his limits as a fighter and capitalized on it...  unfortunately, Crocop happend to join the UFC at the same time... otherwise we would've seen Randy fight Arlowski or someone like that, where he has a great chance winning.

Either way, I don't think Randy made a mistake coming back, some good money, he's back in the action, got the belt again etc.
