"Kondicijski sam izvrsno pripremljen, zdrav sam i ne mogu dočekati subotu. Gonzaga neće imati rješenja za sve što ću pokazati" - širio je optimizam hrvatski gladijator.
(i am in excellent condition,healthy, and i can't wait for saturday words of Crocop before leaving Zagreb)

Gabriel Gonzaga, vrstan majstor brazilskog džiju-džicua (svojedobno i svjetski prvak), opasniji je od Eddieja Sancheza. Mirko to dobro zna i zato se ne želi razbacivati planovima za kolovošku borbu za naslov s Coutureom.

- Pitaju me već i za moguću borbu s Fjodorom, no ne želim gledati tako daleko. Preda mnom je Gonzaga, kojeg ne želim podcijeniti. Da bih pobijedio, moram u borilište ući u najboljem izdanju i tek onda možemo razgovarati o Randyju Coutureu.(they asked him about the figth with fedor and coutoure, but Mirko does not want to look that far ahead and his focus is on Gonzaga)

Mirkova manchesterska borba oglašena je mamutskim elektronskim reklamama u Los Angelesu, New Yorku, Las Vegasu, ali i diljem Engleske.

- Tako će biti i za sljedeće borbe - najavljuje predsjednik UFC-a Dana White koji je najavio UFC-ove priredbe i na HBO televiziji (ovog ljeta), ali kasnije i na ESPN-u.

Cro Cop je izjavio da ubuduće namjerava izlaziti u borilište uz himnu Pridea, kao što je učinio na svojoj UFC premijeri u Las Vegasu. No, ovaj put vratit će se Duran Duranu i "Wild Boysima"
For his entrance song he picked Duran Duran wild boys.

A German news site, groundandpound.de, has reported that Cheick Kongo will be facing Mirko Cro Cop at UFC 75. The word on the fight has come from none other than Kongo himself. Not much else was stated in the article beyond Kongo's confirmation of the bout.

UFC 75 will be taking place in the UK in September and be headlined by Quinton "Rampage" Jackson taking on Dan Henderson
