"Cro Cop: I'll revenge Overeem in July"
Despite being out of the action for all of 2009, Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic is getting more offers than ever before in his career.
A total of five MMA organizations (Two Japanese and three American) would like to see Cro Cop fight for them. Cro Cop, for now, is leaning towards Dream. He wants to return to the ring as soon as possible but all options remain on the table.
The only certainty is a bout in a Affliction - Dream co-promotion in Japan on 20th July. Mirko will be fighting Alistar Overeem. Their last fight left us with more questions than answers. These two competitors will finally meet in July.
Other notable names on that card include Fedor Emelianenko. The worlds best heavyweight will meet American Jeff Monson. Josh Barnett and Andrei Arlovski will also battle it out.
"I'm looking forward to fighting Overeem on 20th July and I cant wait to enter the ring. July is still a long way off. In the next few days I will know more about my schedule for 2009. I want to fight at least another four times this year, and I plan to fight five times in 2010." - explains Mirko adding that this year will mark his return to form.
