Cro Cop to retire?

[Desdichado]

Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic announced today on Croatian television his intentions to retire from mixed martial arts after his contract with the Ultimate Fighting Championship expires, says Nikkan Sports. Cro Cop says he has four fights remaining on his contract with the Las Vegas-based promotion, beginning with his next fight he confirmed for September 8’s UFC 75 in London, England.

Can any of the Croatian members here confirm this?

They are probably referring to interview Mirko gave NovaTV few days ago.

Yeah, I guess they could be. This sure sounded a lot more definitive, but maybe something got lost in translation.

In that case maybe this thread should be merged with the other(s) too.
