Check out the following loosely translated interview conducted on the Russian website vecernji.hr:
"I will change something in training methods and I will go in Amsterdam to train with Hypolite and on sparing with his fighters."
After nose surgery septum deviation-causing breathing problems Mirko started to train again.
"There are many peoples who count me out, but I am motivated to show them they are wrong."
Because of his nose surgery he will not have sparing for 6 weeks. But in this period he will work on the boxing bags.
"I want to enlarge my weight from 100 to 105 kilos. In fights vs Gonzaga and Kongo I saw that this is necessary because against heavier fighters I am losing a lot power in clinch. We will do it step by step so I will not lose on my speed."
This year Cro Cop is not gonna step into octagon. He should have next fight in early 2008.
"I would like to fight against Minotauro. Because of the septum deviation I was losing power in middle and at the end of fight but know I will not have that problem and I will prepare with pleasure for my future fights."
