    Good news. Was any reason given for why the grappling match was cancelled?

    Crocop's career seems to be falling down the rabbit hole.

    After his proformance in UFC im not interested in seeing him fight anymore. He was just a over rated fighter.

    Rumor is it will be replaced by a lion on cocaine fighting 3 businessmen.

    He's one of the greatest heavyweights in MMA history. Two bad fights doesn't make him "just a over rated fighter."

    Far from it....that guy in his prime was everything BUT overrated. Maybe he's still in his prime...maybe not. It sure is strange to see the likes of Herring (guy he used to beat the **** out of in japan) , beating opponents that crocop was struggling against...and even stranger to see his sparring partner (werdum) , have a way better experience under ufc rules...

    (And yes , Werdum is legit and i'm not insinuating that he's inferior to crocop when i'm mentioning that he's his sparring partner)...but it's still ****ing odd...

    There was a point in that guy's career where he would outwrestle Josh Barnett...(and Barnett is not just any wrestler...he's in the top 5 if not 3 )

    PRIDE fans would've bought it during that organization's heyday, mark my words :D

    As long as they had that crazy woman doing the announcing.

    Maybe a big difference is the fighters in the UFC knew about the secret LHK that CC was using, aproach him with a different game plan and he can't get it off as easily....the guys in pride never knew what his main weapon was......I guess they didn't have videos to study there.
