    @@theseeker7692 USADA would not be a danger for him. He was one of few fighters that asked for fights control. Even now he ask for better doping controls and real weights checks just before fights. For him weight loosing and weight check at this time is the worst type of cheating for MMA fights. Just tip that he got tested lot's a of fights and always come clean/negative. He was to fair on UFC we he needed to save his arm after injury with forbidden chemicals that were only possible way to save it. Reward for that was UFC instant ban from competition. Even after negative test by USADA day after. Just remember how much of fighters were positive and removed from fight stats and continued fighting under UFC. Werdum was champion at that time and with 3 wins in the row he would get that title chance. Another problem for UFC was big contract with Cro Cop at that time and low PPV interest. I'm glad only that Stipe took that HW division after.

    I he worked on is ground game he made further up ladder in UFC but I guess when punch and kick that hard probably not that big of a deal he never took the fight to the ground intentionally when someone tries to get him down trying pulling guard he backs off make you stand back up and turn it into kickboxing fight , love his style he just walks you down waiting to throw that left high kick every time he lands just sapps your will to continue , he might not be the greatest mma fighter but he's knows what people want to see him do put you on The mat with devastating kicks and punches not on the ground having a wrestling or jitsu match it's boring for most fight fans it's a part of the sport but people lose interest spend to much time on the ground , right kick hospital Left kick cemetery a fan favorite he wasn't a trash talker he was all business he wasn't egotistical jerk like lots of fighter at that level mma , I think he should have retired early than he did his age started to affect his ability he got knocked out brutally in the UFC he just got worse glad he didn't leave the sport with a lot of permeant Heath problem , I wish Anderson Silva would do the same before he ends up long term injuries I hated seeing both of those legends fall apart, like UFC but since crocop left then Anderson lost his fire I stop watching UFC like watching Larry Holmes pick Ali apart he was just getting unnecessary damage

    I'm glad you mentioned this. This is part of the reason I argue that Cro Cop never looked the same as he did in PRIDE, in the UFC. He was not the same fighter at any point during his UFC career, even in fights that he won such as this one. It's not just an excuse for his losses in the UFC, it's based on actually watching him fight.
