“My conscience is calm because I really did jump in at the last second. When you have five weeks notice, at this level, in the middle of a family holiday in the summer, this is the last, last minute – maybe over the last minute. But I am a grown man, a competitor and I don’t want to ask for any excuse. I will fight and I will do my best to beat him and that’s it. You will never hear from me all this insulting, spitting… that’s not my style.”
“Second, this sport is hard enough in itself without insulting each other. Third, many people around the world look at us as if we are some savages for fighting in the cage, some people look at it like this. They don’t consider MMA a sport and think they we are savages that want to take each others heads. I don’t want to add any fire to that, I want us to act normal because we are sportsmen and for me this is my job and there is really no need to say these kind of things. I think Frank Mir is doing the wrong thing, when he says to Lesnar that he wants him to die in the Octagon – what kind of sport is this he is promoting?!”
“People will always remember that my fight with Pat Barry, it was a fight full of respect but it was also a bloody fight – I had two breaks under my eye, Barry finished with a broken hand and broken foot. For people who watched that and were seeing MMA for the first time, they can cheer this. Respect and fair play is always welcome.”
Crocop is a fucking legend, he is spot on, Sonnen with his trashtalk is funny but people like Bisping and Mir who show 0 respect to Legends is a big tasteless. Im hoping and praying for a CC Lhk, If CC and Lil Nog win itll be a good night for us Pride fans! if they both loose well never hear the end of "The New breed" etc..
