    BTW thought this was an appreciation thread? Or do you all suffer from little man syndrome? worried that the days of the little man dominating is over.

    Cro Cop

    Oh yeah I'm sure its because he's from France that makes him so hated here?

    Every fighter has a snooze fest now and then but not always

    So what about Cro Cop ? Gonzaga took his manhood that night they fought totally dominated him and nearly took his head off. Nothing much happened in that Cro Cop-Kongo fight except Kongo gave him like 7 hard knees to the nuts and Cro Cop couldnt recover and who the hell could ? Kongo has some pretty good striking but no takedown defense or submission skills imagine him vs a Randy Couture or a Brock Lesnar or Frank Mir an elite Heavyweight Kongo would be on his back so fast east elbows or tapping to a armbar he wouldnt know what the **** happened. Please dont bring up a Herring-Cro Cop fight from like 6 years ago.

    Kongo is the most fair, respected, humble, fan friendly, admirable guy in MMA since the enigmatic Dana White.

    You compared Nate Marquadt and Travis Lutter (favorably) to Fedor, and you're a Cheik Kongo fan :patsch

    I'm not a huge fan, but he's improving. I just don't think anybody, especially a heavyweight, is going to go to the heights CroCop did with the "kickboxer defending takedowns" style; MMA fighters are too good at striking, see Badr Hari losing to Overeem, and CroCops striking style was uniquely suited to it with his one shot KOs. Kongo is behind the curve bigtime when it comes to grappling.

    His fight with Hardonk should be great, unless he tries to take Hardonk down like he did Herring.
