Unbelievable! Cro Cop lost this fight! Betting sites will explode!
What a neat fight. So first, Forrest was chipping away at Mirko really well. Then Mirko started throwing kicks, and COMPLETELY destroyed Forrest. Like, 6 kicks, 0 life left. Forrest goes down, Mirko pounces on him, and Forrest just clocks him, knocking him out. Nice stuff. I liked it.
