Cro Cop is 6'2, but the kid is little shorter on images. I'd say 6'1. He could be growing still, I don't know.

lol!!! Great calling me out on that. I'm well on top of USADA'z timeline, but didn't put that together when I commented. You're right that most of CroCop's UFC run waz pre-usada, but they still had to deal with commissions more strict than Pride. I think that's the difference. If not that then wtf happened?

Hospital & Cemetary for his right & left kicks... were not even close to that once he started fighting in teh UFC. He waz a different fighter. More "mortal."

I'm an OG fan since UFC began, & my first live event I attended waz UFC 14, (Mark Kerr won teh tournament with 2 fights in one night & Maurice Smith beat a gassed Coleman off his back in teh main.) (in teh equivalent of a high school gym ffs... lol) so I've been watching for a long time.

Anywayz... WTF went missing wit Cro Cop? I'd have to say that in the absence of USADA... there were more restrictions from teh local regulationz teh UFC put on their shows in... compared to Pride that literally served up teh blue cool-aid prior to matchez... & so Cro Cop had to dial it down.

That's the only theory I got. Please explain to me where his power went during his UFC run if I have it wrong!!!
I mean, it's very clear that SOMETHING happened.

4 things:

1. Transition from ring to cage. He couldn't cut off the cage and corner people the same way in the ring. It was already showing up as a problem against Eddie Sanchez.

2. Mental. Crocop had a tendency to mentally lapse in some fights and get caught badly because of it. First Randleman and first Gonzaga fight for example.

3. Knees to the groin. A lot of knees to the groin. Kongo and Overeem fight.

4. Age caught up with him. Age is more than just how many years you've been alive. At that point he had a successful K1 run, Pride run, was part of a minor league soccer team, was in parliament, in movies (or was it commercials?), a messed up ankle, messed up knees, etc.

If you watch his kickboxing fights and his early pride fights you'll notice a drastic difference in the setup for his high kicks... Mainly the Straight left he used a lot early... He had nerve damage in his shoulder that's very noticeable later in his career even toward the end of pride... I believe he been l even ended up having surgery later on for this
Also the cage and elbows on the ground (pride had neither) were his biggest obstacles.. It's much harder to cut someone off in a cage than a ring... I kept wondering during the Eddie Sanchez fight what was wrong and didn't put it all together till later on.
