Even the lowest level pro MMA fighter is someone you don't want to mess with. They're still training more than the average person. Their cardio is probably better too. People look at fighters with poor records and talk a lot of shit but they'd get destroyed by them too.
lol Hunt lost because he wasn't capable enough of kicking. not because he was badly injured. in MMA, Cro Crop would be KO'ed instead. Hunt's punches are strong enough to KO someone as durable as Roy Nelson, who beat Cro Crop. you should watch Nelson vs Cro Crop and then watch Nelson vs Hunt.
@@aleksandarjankovic39 Balkan/caucass are not tough in the same sense as Samoans/tongans. Balkans and caucass have stong fighting spirit and will power, that's what makes them "tough". But Samoan/Tongas are tough in sense that they have steel jaws and skulls extremely hard to KO. Different type of "toughness"
Mark Hurnt was the only man on earth that be able to stand on feet after got a head kick from mirko crocop. Even an elephant would cry for that headshot
Mark Hunt was one of the OG fighters I’d see in the days before RU-vid that really got me into professional fighting. This was always a personal fav, great fight. No one lost in my book.
There are some things I will never know. One of them is I will never know how Mark got up from that devastating left high kick. Having a granite chin is one thing but this goes beyond that in my opinion.
I love you Mirko your always a good and humble simple man and you have respect everyone your opponent may God Bless you and your whole family..always tale care of yourself and of course your family too...
Mark Hunt a very awesome fighter, he has lots of respect for all his opponents whenever he wins or loses. Mirko "Cro cop" Filipovic and Mark Hunt are my favorite fighters.
Mark admitted he hated training. He wasn't as committed as many other fighters. He said he wouldn't eat clean most times and he would duck training and play games he only did it because he loved fighting and the money. If this was him fighting after all that just imagine if he was a fully committed fighter he'd be dangerous. It's one thing us Polynesians lack is consistency because we are stubborn asf.
Великолепный бой, ностальгия. Раньше и дрались на уровне настоящих профи, и уважения друг к другу не занимать было. Сейчас такое чувство, что боевые искусства превратились в полупостановочный цирк.

crocop has to be the baddest dude on the planet, theres just no one who can kill him, one of the best hand to hand fighters ever and so good with a weapon hes in elite special forces
+Tom W Yeah Mirko was 40 years old when he fought in UFC.Noone could ever beat Cro Cop in his prime,well Fedor was the only guy that did but still.If Cro Cop was in his prime right now he would have been unstopable in heavyweight division.The only guy that could be cloose to him is fellow Croat Stipe Miocic and maybe Cain.Cro cop is just a legend best ever.
Celtic Snow fedor is obviously #1 then it’s crocop, but I would argue cro cop has more of a seasoned/successful career over fedor having belts in k1,pride,glory etc.
the turning of his planting foot is his first tell of the kick. instead of twisting, he falls backward, allowing his kicking foot to leave the ground in the same motion. it's a very quick release, but while his back foot is twisted he has no balance. he is floating on a rotation, anchored by his foot, making him easy to push over (if you can catch him in time).
Regardless of what people say of Mark Hunt (Hes still fighting) he took a Cro Cop left from Mirko at his peak to the dome, didnt even phase him. We need a motivational poster of a smiling Mark Hunt and on the bottom captions "Chin."
Why do they always butcher Croatian names,it is easy when it finishes on ić you just have to translate ć into ch and it sounds right then,for example Mirko Filipovich.
im not that big a hunt fan (huge cro cop fan tho), but u gotta admit the guy is a beast and hes well conditioned, especially for a big guy. cro cop has always had cardio problems, and i wouldnt be surprised if he gassed before hunt
Will be the best UFC this year, has several good fights, I hope this fight does not stay boring equals Mir and Cormier, I want to see a lot of punches!
Mark Hunt is a mixed race, his grand father is german and his grand mother is samoan. And, he was born in New Zealand. So, his from New Zealand, not from Samoa or Europe, in general, his European-Samoan.
Cro Cop is in the Croatian Special Forces, and he is easy to spot up there in those Croatian hills... ...he's got 80 pounds of commando gear strapped to his body, but he's wearing his Purina Puppy Chow underroos OVER HIS FATIGUE PANTS
After this fight the media interviewed Cro cop and asked him why he didn't finish mark hunt off after that kick Cro crop repiled " u stand in front of mark hunt and take the power of his punches easier said then done".
I think Nog has a iron or a steel skull, he can easily take Cro Cops kicks, Fedors punchs and even he survived a truck hitting when he was a kid. I dont really get surprised if one day he take his face off and he is really a T-800 or something even stronger.
My neighbor is a scientist and does DNA testing along with other tests on people all over the world. He was telling me that Polynesian people have the highest bone density in the world. That must be why mark can take a hit like that and not be knocked out. 99.98 people would be out cold from a kick like that.
cro cop rules. but the most incredible part of that fight was when hunt got up from that cro cop deadly kick and practically showed no damage. ANY other fighter was immediately knocked out after cro cop connected one of those. Hunt really deserves his nick "Iron Chin"!
