Cro Cop first fight in UFC

[Mr.X]

Result Opponent Method Event Date Round Time
Win Eddie Sanchez Technical Knock Out UFC® 67: ALL OR NOTHING 02/03/2007 1 4:33

he KOed Eddie Sanchez pretty fast

Cro Cop, arriving in the UFC after a stellar career in Japan for the K-1 and Pride organizations, wasted no time getting down to business, landing two stiff left punches and a kick to the midsection as he eluded Sanchez’ initial lunges. The two then traded punches as the Croatian continued to stalk, eventually grazing Sanchez with a left high kick that still made an audible thump.

Looking amateurish with his wild swings, Sanchez continued to backpedal as Cro Cop moved forward with bad intentions. With 1:35 left, Cro Cop stunned Sanchez with a high left kick, and his follow-up attack put the Californian on the mat. Cro Cop quickly got into the mounted position and opened fire, with referee Steve Mazzagatti wisely pulling the 32-year old Zagreb resident off his game foe at the 4:33 mark.

With the win, Cro Cop improves to 22-4-2. Sanchez falls to 8-1

these arent jokers, so I give him some credit... search on YouTube for the randleman fight, you'll see in the ground to pound (randleman on top), cro cop was hit in the THROAT (illegal) but the ref. just blew it off and called it a KO

cro cop is the ONLY one who's come close to actually getting a decision with fedor

no one is going to knock fedor out...that's a given but decision that's a thought...
