    In a ridiculously awkward turn of events, Mirk Cro Cop's recent retirement from MMA has made his name pop up more and more in the news than it ever did in his UFC run on an international level. What we know so far is that Mirko plans on returning to the Kickboxing world and it seems that March is his projected return date against a fearsome opponent in Errol Zimmerman. There is also negotiations ongoing with Dzevad Poturak for a bout in June. Both of these fights are incredibly tough fights for an aging Mirko who has been competing in MMA for years without competing in Kickboxing. He also has been away from training for Kickboxing, which can be a giant problem for a fighter coming from Mixed Martial Arts.

    *Sigh* :roll:

    It looks like it will be a pro wrestling match, at least no real fight

    He wants to try K1 again so let him. Guys like Aerts are still fighting at the top level so why not let Mirko try. Would be funny if he actually won.

    This would be interesting cos neither are pro wrestlers. Barnett did a decent job of carrying jlb but barnett is a pro wrestler. But still be good to see another pro wrestling match on the card.
    Its a real shame barnett is not allowed to work this event!!

    A few years ago the plan was for mirko to face kenta kobashi in pro wrestling noah and put kobashi over cos noah gave k1 akiyama to put over bob sapp on the k1 wrestle-one show but k1 went back on the deal.

    Wonder how hdnet are going to call the prowrestling matches?
