Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic just debuted in the United States at UFC 67 last weekend, coming out to the opening theme of Pride FC for his own reasons. According to MMAWeekly he had some injuries going into that bout. Around 20 days prior to his match with Eddie Sanchez, Mirko apparently had problems with his feet and left leg which were "nothing too serious" though. He did however, have his left leg (cemetery) drained at a clinic and considered cancelling his U.S. debut. From the looks of that fight at UFC 67, it was clear that the only problems Cro Cop had was securing a clean KO. Sanchez kept running, usually to Eddie's left so as not to get decapitated by Mirko's patented left high kick.
His next fight will be "in Manchester on April 20th." No news yet as to who will be fed to the Pride Open Weight Grand Prix champion.
