    I'm curious about that dream matchup. Which fighter would you take? Since Anderson Silva walk around 220, and Cro Crop isnt a big Heavyweight, the difference wouldnt be that big big.

    Which striker TKO the others???
    Don't forget, the best version of Cro Crop vs the version of now of Anderson Silva since he still is in his prime, killing people.

    But wouldnt the quality of the hands of Silva, trouble Cro Crop?

    This fight can still happen. If Crocop looks good in his next fight, don't be surprised.

    guys are you kidding, cro cop was super fast, great hand speed and foot speed, and he ist a big heavyweight, he would knock anderson out in the first round with a high kick

    I think Andersons movement will make Cro Cops stalkin style look slow, but its still a 50/50 fight. I just cant decide

    Cro Cop has far more pedigree as a striker where I assume this fight would be fought.

    Cro Cop beat Bonjaskey in K1, that was his class.

    Cro Cop by TKO.

    Crocop is a massively superior striker to Silva. Fact.

    Silva has four losses against unknown fighters, prime Crocop had four losses against Fedor, Nogueira, Randleman and Hunt.

    I don't even see how you can compare the two. I mean, Silva is a good striker and all, but Crocop is so far ahead of everyone else in terms of striking ability that it isn't even funny:

    Not only is Mirko bigger and stronger he is technically superior!

    Exactly. Also, Silva's BJJ probably wouldn't help him much, as the only guy who has been been able to submit Crocop was Nog, who's probably the greatest submission artist of all time.

    Exactly, Cro Cop has been in there with Fedor and didnt get subbed, and his submissions are far far supeior to Andersons.
