Mirko suffers an injury....
Mirko Cro Cop recently released a statement stating that he has suffered a minor leg injury forcing him to postpone his June 14th fight with Jerome LeBanner. The fight will now happen on July 20th. Below is the statement released by Cro Cop:
"Yes, I'm going to fight on July 20. I was looking forward to appearing on the DREAM 4 card on June 15 and I based my preparations on that. I suffered a minor leg injury last week, but it doesn't affect my trainings. During a wrestling session, I slipped and felt pain in my left knee, but the medical exams have confirmed that no damage was done. I'm wearing a special bandage just as a precaution."
I understand to be 100% but jesus H Christ Mirko !!
I am a big fan but his UFC experiance and exit has left a bad taste in my mouth !!
First the excuse about blocked nassel passages - only to see him come back and get owned by Chieck Knogo - to where as Herring whom Mirko destroyed owned Kongo 3 months later - now this ETF man WTF !
If there is no injure suck it up and fucking fight !! Lebanner is an old sparring buddy anyway back in Mirko's k-1 days whom he no doudt faced -it's time to put up or shut up or hang the them the fuck up !!
My cheer Crocop days over the last 10yrs are at about wits end !!!

Cro Cop needs to fight.
He ducked the fight with
Shchilt and now it looks like he may be trying to get out of this one.

the nasal surgury was after the Kongo fight... but still a lackluster performance. Hard to presum from injuries or not enough training.
