CRO COP Interview 12-10-2007

"I will change something in training methods and I will go in Amsterdam to train with Hypolite and on sparing with his fighters."

After nose surgery (septum deviation-causing breathing problems) Mirko started to train again.

"There are many peoples which deductes me, but I am motivated to show them they are wrong.

Because of his nose surgery he will not have sparing for 6 weeks. But in this period he will not spare boxing bag.

" I want to enlarge my weight from 100 to 105 kilos. In fights vs Gonzaga&Kongo I saw that this is necessary because against heavier fighters I am losing a lot power in clinch and parter. We will do it step by step so I will not lose on my speed."

This year Cro Cop is not gonna step into octagon. He should have first fight in first 2 months 2008.

"I would like to fight against Minotauro. Because deptum deviation I was losing power in middlle and at the end of fight but know I will not have that problem and I will prepare with pleasure for my future fights."
