Cro Cop : "Definitely The UFC Offered Him The Best Possible Deal"

"I don't know, I like Fedor very much as a fighter, as a man, I don't know him well enough to say anything more, I don't know if somebody controls him. I don't know. I don't know the situation. I don't want to insult Fedor, but I really don't understand his attitude. I don't know why he doesn't want to enter the UFC. Definitely the UFC offered him the best possible deal, to pay him much more than Dream can offer or Strikeforce can offer, but he's just refusing to go there. I don't know why. I think he should take the shot but why, what are his reasons, I don't know. I don't think he's afraid, but I think he wants to keep his perfect (record), maybe he thinks the competition in the UFC is too tough. I don't know. I think he should come. Why he's not there, I don't know."

Just like everyone else in the world "The Croatian Sensation" , Mirko Cro Cop, is now criticizing Fedor's recent deal to bypass the UFC and sign with Strikeforce. While I don't think he is trying to pad his record I do think he is a mear puppet under M-1 Global where his decisions are made for him. For now I have him ranked as the #1 HW in the world but in order to stay on top you need to fight the best in the world and outside of Overeem that is just not the case in Strikeforce.
