Post-fight Mirko Cro Cop
At least I've got the answer to my dilemma after his fight:
- Kicking Yoshida with his right leg was a part of his gameplan - (only) because Mirko wasn't able to kick with his left one. Here are the best of Mirko's post-fight thoughts:
- "All the time during the fight I felt completely secured. I realized that I can control fight with my right low-kick, so I didn't wanted to put myself in any kind of un-neccessary risk. And that clinch we had, when Yoshida wasn't able to throw me down additionally pumped-up my self-confidence."
- "Till September I'll have a plenty of time to completely heal my left leg, and become 100% fit. When I wasn't able to with it during the fight, so I decided to kick with my right and made a lot of damage to Yoshida's knee and thigh. That was first KO caused by low-kick in history of Pride."
- "It is irrelevant for me who is gonna be my opponent in the semis, but I think it won't be Barnett cause we had 2 fights recently - so another fight probably won't be too attractive for the fans. I think that Wandrelei Silva could be the one, and in fighting Silva I'll be highly motived because of one other thing; Silva's bad behavior. But we'll have to wait and see what Pride will decide.
- "From now on till next Monday - I'm on vacations - and afterwards I'll spend whole summer with nothing but hard training."
