MMA Heavyweight Legend Returning To UFC

 

UFC President Dana White confirmed with MMAFighting.com’s Ariel Helwani that UFC has re-signed MMA legend Mirko Cro Cop after 4 years away.

Cro Cop (age 40), the master of the left head kick, went 4-6 under the UFC banner from 2007-2011. His overall MMA record is 30-11-2.

Cro Cop is coming off 2 straight victories in Japan over satoshi Ishii, the latest on December 31 via TKO. He is 3-1 since leaving UFC, but not against the best competition. Cro Cop departed the UFC after 3 straight losses to Roy Nelson, Brendan Schaub and Frank Mir.
